Bhopal\/Khargone: <\/b>Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday sharpened his attack on the Congress, asserting that India was at a turning point in history and the people have to choose in the ongoing elections if Vote Jihad or Ram Rajya should determine the path the country will take.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn Pakistan, terrorists are threatening to do jihad against India. And Congress leaders have declared to carry out vote jihad against Modi. That is, people of a certain religion are being told to vote against Modi. To what level has the Congress stooped… Is vote jihad acceptable? Can this be allowed in a democracy?…\u201d PM Modi told an election meeting in Khargone, a reference to remarks by Maria Alam, Samajwadi Party candidate and Congress leader Salman Khurshid\u2019s niece.<\/p>\n

Alam, a Samajwadi Party (SP) leader, had called for a \u201cvote jihad\u201d in favour of the INDIA opposition bloc candidate from the Farrukhabad Lok Sabha seat in Uttar Pradesh\u2019s Kayamganj on April 30.<\/p>\n

At the election rally in Khargone on Tuesday, PM Modi asked people if they were fine with \u201cvote jihad\u201d. \u201cCan such a thing prevail in a democracy? Does the Indian Constitution allow such jihad?\u201d he asked <\/p>\n

The prime minister said the Congress and the INDIA bloc partners were only fighting the elections to save their legacy, underscoring they were not bothered about the fate of the masses. <\/p>\n

PM Modi also reiterated his accusation, first levelled last week, that sought to link the Congress to Pakistan. At the two election rallies in Madhya Pradesh on Tuesday, PM Modi said the Congres\u2019s love for Pakistan was reaching a new peak after every phase of voting.<\/p>\n

\u201cA former CM of Congress said it is our army, which carries out terrorist attacks, Pakistan is innocent. Can people of our country think like this… Isn\u2019t this an insult to our army or not\u2026 I would ask shehzada (a reference to Rahul Gandhi)\u2026 Where did these voices start coming from \u2026. So much love for Pakistan and so much hatred for our army,\u201d PM Modi said.<\/p>\n

The PM\u2019s remarks were seen to refer to former Punjab chief minister Charanjit Singh Channi\u2019s comments that the terror attack on an Indian Air Force (IAF) convoy in Jammu & Kashmir last week was an \u201celection stunt\u201d by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Channi said he was proud of the country\u2019s soldiers but questioned the Centre over the probe into the 2019 terror attack in Pulwama in Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n

PM Modi said the Congress\u2019s intentions were very dangerous and asked people to listen to the statements made by Congress leaders who had quit the party after spending 20-25 years.\u201dA woman Congress leader said that when she went to Ram Mandir, she was tortured so much that she had to leave Congress. Another leader said that Muslim League and Maoists have taken over Congress. One said that the shehzada of Congress intends to overturn the Supreme Court\u2019s decision on Ram Mandir just like shehzada\u2019s father overturned the Supreme Court\u2019s decision in the Shahbano case, in the same way Congress is thinking of changing the Supreme Court\u2019s decision on Ram Mandir.\u201d <\/p>\n

PM Modi also repeated his claim that the Congress would snatch reservation benefits of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes to appease a community. \u201cThey issued such a law that all the Muslims in Karnataka were made OBC. They want to implement this model in the whole country,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
