As Prime Minister Narendra Modi concluded his address to the nation on Saturday night, the Opposition parties launched a scathing attack on him, accusing him of undermining the sanctity of the PM’s address and turning it into a “political speech, full of mudslinging, and outright lies”.
Mallikarjun Kharge strongly criticised the Prime Minister’s address, saying it reflected a clear shift in priorities away from women’s empowerment. He said, “Modi ji mentioned Congress 59 times and women barely few times. That tells the country everything about his priorities. Women are not the BJP’s priority. Congress is.”
He further said the address focused more on attacking Opposition parties than on explaining the failure of the women’s reservation bill.
