Rajasthan – Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a recent rally in Barmer, Rajasthan, expressed serious concerns over the election manifestos of the opposition parties, with a special emphasis on national security.
PM Modi pointed out that the Congress party’s manifesto seems to be influenced by the Muslim League, a party he blamed for the partition of India. He voiced his concerns about the potential impact this association could have on the nation’s unity.
Furthermore, the Prime Minister criticized another party, a part of the INDI alliance, for a commitment in their manifesto that he termed as ‘dangerous’ for the nation. This party, which he did not name, has reportedly promised to dismantle India’s nuclear weapons.
In a region where India is surrounded by two nuclear-armed nations, PM Modi questioned the logic behind such a decision. “When two of our neighbours are armed with nuclear weapons, should our nuclear weapons be destroyed?” he asked the audience, further questioning, “What kind of an alliance is this which wants to make India powerless?”
These comments from the Prime Minister come at a time of increasing regional tensions and ongoing debates on national security. His statements are expected to trigger further discussions on India’s defense strategy, particularly the role of nuclear weapons, and the influence of election manifestos on national policy.
As the election season intensifies, the rally in Barmer forms a key part of PM Modi’s campaign trail. With national security and the implications of party manifestos emerging as central issues, the political climate is set to become more heated in the coming days.
