In a fiery address at a public rally in West Bengal, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a scathing attack on the opposition, accusing them of fostering division within society for political gains.
“They (Opposition) cannot bring development. They only know how to divide the society for the sake of votes,” asserted PM Modi, highlighting what he perceives as a detrimental trend in the political landscape of West Bengal.
PM Modi drew attention to a recent controversial statement made by a Trinamool Congress (TMC) MLA, who purportedly threatened to drown Hindus in the Bhagirathi river within two hours. “What is this language and political culture?” questioned the Prime Minister, condemning the open threat and raising concerns about the deteriorating political discourse in the state.
Expressing worry over the treatment of Hindus in West Bengal, PM Modi remarked, “What is happening to Hindus in Bengal? Looks like the TMC has made the Hindus second citizens in West Bengal.”
The Prime Minister’s remarks come amidst a charged political atmosphere in West Bengal, where the state has been a focal point of intense political competition. His comments have reignited debates surrounding communal harmony and the prevailing political rhetoric in the region.
As of now, opposition parties are yet to respond to PM Modi’s assertions. However, the Prime Minister’s remarks have set the stage for a renewed discourse on the state of communal relations and the broader political narrative in West Bengal.
With political tensions on the rise, the citizens of West Bengal are awaiting a constructive dialogue that can pave the way for development and foster unity within the state. As the political landscape continues to evolve, all eyes are on the leaders to steer the discourse towards progress and inclusivity.
