Modi slams opposition alliance as directionless
Prime Minister Narendra Modi slammed the opposition as “directionless” and cited the “Indian Mujahideen” and “Popular Front of India” as he derided the opposition alliance for its new name, INDIA.
“I have never seen such a directionless opposition,” BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad quoted the Prime Minister as saying at the weekly meeting of the BJP parliamentary party.
PM Modi also attacked the opposition grouping on the name it gave itself at a meeting of 26 parties in Bengaluru last week to discuss strategy for the 2024 national election – INDIA, an acronym for Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance.
“They keep praising themselves for the name INDIA. Indian National Congress. East India company. Indian Mujahideen. Popular Front of India – these are also INDIA. Just using the name INDIA does not mean anything,” Prasad quoted the Prime Minister as saying.
People cannot be misled merely by the use of the country’s name, he said.
