When Pakistan is being exposed in front of the world these people start speaking in support of Pakistan.” “When Pakistan is being cornered in the world, these people are trying to become hero in that country,” he said upping ante against the Opposition party leaders who sought clarification from the government amid conflicting reports in the international media over operation conducted by the Indian Air Force at a terror camp in Pakistan.

 

PM Modi asserted that we must work together if we aim to take the county to a new heights. He said that there are some people who are plotting the divide the country on the basis of caste and religion. "They are doing this for their self-interest," he said.

“The soft approach adopted by these parties have not only helped the terrorists but also put your life and future in danger…Due to vote bank politics, Bua and Babua (a reference often used by him to target Samajwadi President Akhilesh Yadav and Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati) used to set free the perpetrators of terror attacks,” PM Modi said at his public rally in western Uttar Pradesh.

 

PM Modi also targeted the Congress accusing it of neglecting the Dalits and the leaders from the community. “The Congress, to give priority to one family, even tried everything to defeat BR Ambedkar.

“The Congress dive not give credit to Babu Jagjivan Ram when India gave befitting reply to Pakistan in 1971 war even though he was the defence minister at the time,” he said suggesting that former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was praised for the decisive military action at the cost of the former Dalit leader.
