In a recent election rally in Ahmednagar, Maharashtra, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a blistering attack on the Congress party, accusing it of defending Pakistan in relation to the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks.
Modi alleged that the ‘B’ team of Congress has become active across the border, suggesting that they are siding with Pakistan over the terror attacks. He posed a question to the Congress party, “Were the 26/11 Mumbai attacks not sponsored by Pakistan? Who was behind the killing of our innocent people?”
The Prime Minister emphasized that the truth about the attacks is known to the public and the world. He said, “Our court has delivered its verdict, and Pakistan has also confessed to it,” expressing his discontent over the Congress party allegedly issuing a certificate of innocence to the terrorists.
Modi further accused the Congress leaders of supporting the 26/11 terrorist Kasab. He stated, “This is an insult to the memory of those who lost their lives in the attacks,” referring to the victims of the tragic terror attack that occurred in Mumbai in November 2008.
These comments by the Prime Minister have added fuel to the already heated political environment in the run-up to the elections. His remarks are likely to trigger further debates and discussions in the political corridors.
The Congress party has not yet issued a response to the Prime Minister’s accusations. As the election campaign gathers momentum, the country is keenly watching how this narrative will evolve.
