TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Prime Minister Narendra Modi has unveiled a statue of Swami Vivekananda in the Jawaharlal Nehru University campus, for long an ideological battlefield for the Left and Hindutva groups, and asserted that people’s ideologies should be seen standing with and not against the country in matters of national interest.
Giving priority to one’s ideology over national interest has harmed the democratic system of the country a lot, Modi said in his address to students after unveiling the statue through video conferencing.
“Everybody is proud of his ideology and this is natural. But our ideology should be seen standing with the nation and not against it in matters of national interest,” he said.
He spoke of the independence struggle and the movement against the Emergency to note that people of different ideological persuasions had joined hands for national interest without compromising their ideologies to make his point.
