PM Modi slams Opposition, calls it 'Avrodh Paksh'
On the 151st birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Prime Minister Narendra Modi criticized the Opposition on Saturday, alleging it had morphed into an "obstructive force" rather than a legitimate opposing group. The PM addressed a crowd at Ekta Nagar in Gujarat, marking Rashtriya Ekta Diwas. Modi accused the Opposition of aligning with foreign forces and questioned their allegiance, indirectly referencing Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's foreign trips.
He warned against the spread of rumors through social media and the tarnishing of India's image. Modi vowed to eradicate Naxalism and Maoism, acknowledging that while the country is now free from Naxals, a new threat from "dimagi Naxals" persists. He announced India's forthcoming priorities, including securing borders, halting infiltration and demographic shifts, and establishing a secular civil code. Modi reiterated his commitment to Patel's vision for a united India.
