TIL Desk/National/Karnataka/ Training guns on the Congress over its President M Mallikarjun Kharge’s ‘venomous snake’ barb at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said the party and its leaders “have lost their minds”.
Noting that PM Modi is welcomed across the world with a lot of respect, he said the Congress cannot instigate people with such statements, because the support for the PM will increase, as much as they abuse him.
“Congress is lacking on issues. In the last nine years, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has increased India’s pride in the world, he has worked to make India prosperous, he has made India’s infrastructure strong, and he has made India’s borders safe. Wherever Modi ji goes across the world, people there welcome him with ‘Modi-Modi’ slogans,” Mr Shah said.
Addressing a public meeting at Navalgund in Dharwad district, he said, “Congress President Kharge (Mallikarjun Kharge) says our leader (PM) Modi, whom the whole world respects and welcomes, is like a venomous snake. I want to ask you, can you make the Congress party, which has compared Modi to a venomous snake, victorious in the election? “
