PM Modi Slams Opposition Parties For “Spreading Propaganda Against BJP-Led Central Govt”

Bhubaneswar, Nov 29: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday launched an all-out attack on opposition parties particularly Congress party, alleging that they regularly engage in spreading propaganda against the BJP-led central government.

Addressing a special felicitation programme, organised by the Odisha BJP, near the Airport square in Bhubaneswar, the Prime Minister said that the opposition has only one aim, “to somehow capture power by misleading people”.

The prime minister said the BJP dedicatedly worked for the development of Odisha, even when the party was not in power in the eastern state.

“The Odisha poll results surprised many big political experts, who had completely rejected the idea of BJP forming government in the state… BJP’s election success in Odisha, Haryana and Maharashtra shows the strength of our party workers,” Modi asserted.

PM Modi said, "I have seen different colours of politics when I was working as CM and PM. In politics, I agree that policy opposition is very natural in politics. There can be different opinions regarding any decision. Political parties also keep organising movements to convey their message to the public. They also express their views while staying within the limits of democracy and the Constitution....But for the last some time, you all must be feeling a big change. The spirit of the Constitution of India is crushed; all the norms of democracy are rejected. Those who consider power as their birthright have not had power at the Centre for the last decade. Now, they are angry with the people of the country for blessing someone else from the very first day."

"This situation has filled them with so much anger that they are busy plotting against the country, against the elected government in the democracy. These people have started venting their anger on the public. They have started misleading people to take the country in the wrong direction. Their shop of lies and rumours has been running for 50-60 years. Now they have intensified this campaign. In such a situation, for the awakened citizens, for the BJP workers, for those who love the country and who respect the Constitution, the actions, intentions and deeds of such people are becoming a big challenge. Therefore, I would like to tell all the countrymen that we have to remain alert at every moment and keep making people aware. We have to expose every lie," he added.
