Prime Minister Narendra Modi has sharpened his attacks on the Congress, accusing the opposition party of fostering divisions and promoting hatred within India. In his latest remarks, he labeled the Congress as "an irresponsible party and a factory to spread hatred," intensifying his ongoing critique of the opposition ahead of crucial state elections in Maharashtra.
Modi’s comments follow the BJP's significant electoral victory in Haryana, which he used to suggest a nationwide trend in favor of his party. Referring to Congress's tactics, the Prime Minister claimed that the opposition aimed to divide Hindus and create societal rifts, particularly by sowing fear among the Muslim community to secure votes. Modi argued that the Congress's approach harms national unity and has no regard for long-term development goals, focusing instead on power dynamics.
