Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday slammed Congress and said that expecting ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’ from the oldest party will be a huge mistake.
In the Lok Sabha on Tuesday, PM Modi criticised AAP and its national convener Arvind Kejriwal prior to Delhi elections. He referenced the ‘Sheesh Mahal’, alluding to the renovations at Kejriwal’s official residence at 6, Flag Staff Road, and stated that certain parties posed as ‘AAP-da’ regarding youth prospects, according to Manoj CG.
The Prime Minister devoted considerable time discussing his administration’s dedication to constitutional protection whilst directing criticism at Opposition Leader Rahul Gandhi. He also responded to the Congress party’s stance on caste census and social justice. He noted that discussing caste had become trendy for certain individuals, pointing out their previous inaction over three decades regarding constitutional status for the backward classes commission.
Here are the top quotes:
- “The president’s speech was inspirational, effective and also showed the way forward to us all.”
- “Expecting ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’ from Congress will be a huge mistake. It is beyond their thinking and it also doesn’t suit their roadmap because the whole party is dedicated only to one family.”
- “The people of the nation have tested, understood and supported our model of development. Our model of development is – ‘nation first’.”
- “After 2014, India got an alternate model of governance. This model is not focused on appeasement, but on satisfaction.”
- “A lot has been said here on ‘Sabka Sath Sabka Vikas’. I fail to understand, what’s the problem this. ‘Sabka Sath Sabka Vikas’ is our responsibility, and it is for this that the country has given us the opportunity to sit here. But as far as Congress is concerned, I believe expecting ‘Sabka Sath Sabka Vikas’ from them would be a big mistake.”
- “For three decades, OBC MPs from both Houses, from all parties, had been asking the Govt to give constitutional status to the OBC Commission. It was denied, time and again. It did not suit their politics at that time. After decades of wait, we gave constitutional status to this Commission, respecting the community’s demands.”
- “We expanded reservation for Divyangs. We worked in mission mode for Divyangs. We not just made several schemes for the Divyangs, but also ensured they were implemented. We also ensured legal rights for the Transgender community. This only goes on to show that we live by the ideal of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’.
- “Congress hated Baba Saheb Ambedkar so much, there was so much anger against him that it was irritated by everything he (Baba Saheb) said.All its documents are available.Due to this anger, everything was done to defeat Baba Saheb in the elections twice.”
- “Baba Saheb was never considered worthy of Bharat Ratna. The people of this country, the entire society respected the sentiments of Baba Saheb. Then today Congress is forced to say ‘Jai Bhim’.”
