BJP spokesperson Shahzad Poonawalla told News18, unfortunately for them (Congress leaders), the holes or graves they dig usually collapse.
It was six weeks ago on February 23 when Congress leaders raised the rather objectionable slogan “Modi teri kabar khudegi” during a protest at the Delhi airport over the arrest of party spokesperson Pawan Khera. Since then this slogan has started troubling the Congress. As the top leadership of the Bharatiya Janata Party has made it a rallying issue.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi Himself, Home Minister Amit Shah, and BJP President JP Nadda – the party’s top leaders have cited the remark more than half a dozen times in the last six weeks that the Congress is now wishing death for the PM. The latest was raised by the prime minister in his address to BJP leaders on the party’s foundation day on Thursday. He had first said in Shillong on February 24 that people were saying, “Modi tera kamal khilega” in response to the Congress slogan. The BJP is planning to make it a big issue during the Karnataka election campaign as well. The slogan coined by its leaders on 23 February.
He said, ‘More than the statement, it is the mindset of the Congress, which the BJP leadership is criticizing. Unfortunately for them, the holes or graves they dig usually collapse,” BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla told News18. He said that the “Modi teri kabar khudegi mentality of the Congress” was part of a continuous 21-year effort from 2002 to 2023, which is a “cottage industry of Modi-phobia that has now become a multinational company of hate against Modi.” This is the mentality of a family which is so eager to come to power that it has crossed all limits of political decency.
turn the tables
PM Modi raised the issue at an election rally in Shillong a day after Congress leaders raised the slogan. “Those who have been rejected by the people are saying ‘Modi teri kabar khudegi’, but people across the country are saying ‘Modi tera kamal khilega’,” he said. On 12 March, while inaugurating projects in Karnataka, the Prime Minister said that the Congress was busy dreaming of digging his grave, but he was busy dreaming of Karnataka’s development. Congressmen who are dreaming of digging Modi’s grave do not know that Modi’s biggest security shield is the blessings of crores of mothers and sisters.
Home Minister Amit Shah had attacked the Congress on this issue while addressing a public meeting in Karnataka on 3 March. Rahul Gandhi That they are raising such slogans?” Shah said. He said that the prayer of the Congress will not be heard as all the 130 crore people of the country are praying for Modi’s long life.
Speaking in Kerala on 12 March, Shah again asked whether people agreed with the Congress slogan of “Modi teri kabar khudegi” and said he would like to tell Rahul Gandhi that the Congress may try to humiliate Modi, but He will return to power stronger. ,
BJP president JP Nadda, speaking twice last month, had said that such language by the Congress reflected its “national character”.
Congress bluntly in response
Party leader Udit Raj defended the 25 February remark, saying it was “political language” and meant to say that “Modi’s political grave should be dug”. However, the party has not condemned the statement.
In the past, such personal attacks by the Congress on Modi have backfired, such as the “merchant of death” remark by Sonia Gandhi in 2007 ahead of the Gujarat elections, or the “100 faces like Ravana” remark by Mallikarjun Kharge on the PM last year. before the state elections
