With the elections in full swing, Narendra Modi, in an interview given to the Times Now Network has illustrated and exposed Congress’ conduct. Narendra Modi in the interview has also spelled out the modus operandi of the Congress with respect to various unsubstantiated controversies.
When asked a question about Sadhvi Pragya being the BJP candidate from Bhopal, PM Modi brilliantly exposed the hypocrisy on the part of the current opposition and the ‘liberal’ media nexus. Rahul Shivshankar, Editor-in-Chief of Times Now laid out the question:
“You spoke about ‘hitting’ touch to tackle terrorism, but you have fielded a terror accused Sadhvi Pragya Thakur to contest against Digvijaya Singh in Bhopal. Don’t you think, it is a contradiction as people say Sadhvi Pragya is a divisive figure who talks about Hindu-Muslim only?”
PM Modi gave a holistic reply to his question and also provided an insight on how politically motivated narratives are manufactured. “When in 1984 Indira Gandhi died, her son said when a big tree falls the earth shakes. Thereafter, there were thousands of Sikhs who were massacred. Was it not terror? Was it not terror unleashed by a few people? Despite that he was made PM and the neutral media never asked a question like it is now. Those who were identified by eyewitnesses, those who lead murderous mobs were made MPs, some were made cabinet ministers, one was recently made CM of Madhya Pradesh. Those who are facing such serious charges were never questioned. Therefore this talk should be ended. Those who have been convicted by the courts, people go and hug them, meet them in jail, meet them when them are shifted to hospitals, can they preach? Should the Amethi & Rae Bareli candidates who are out on bail not be questioned? But a Bhopal BJP candidate is out on bail and is fighting elections, there is a huge hue and cry. A woman, a Sadhvi was tortured like this, no one raised a finger.”
He further went ahead to speak about his experiences as the Chief Minister of Gujarat and added:
“I have lived in Gujarat, I understand the modus operandi of Congress. Like a film script, Congress works to build a narrative. They will pick something, add something to it, add a villain to the story to build a false script for propaganda. In Gujarat, whatever encounters used to take place, they would prepare a script accordingly. In the Judge Loya case, he died a natural death but the same modus operandi was used to build a narrative that he was killed. The same modus operandi was followed to build false narrative using videos around EVM, DeMo. This is their modus operandi. Samjhauta verdict came, what happened. They defamed a 500 year old culture that believes in Vasudhaiv Kutumbakam. They called them terrorists. To answer them all, this is a symbol and it will cost Congress”
PM Modi is probably the most unfairly criticized politician in India, and in the interview he has again shown his firm resolve to debunk this politically motivated rhetoric, which is used as an unethical tool to mislead people. Congress which has also been trying hard to churn a controversy around the MMRCA Rafale deal has been repeatedly snubbed by the Supreme Court for its attempts. However with the aid of its nexus with the ‘neutral’ media, Congress is trying to keep the issue alive.
