New Delhi: Taking a jibe at Congress leader Kamal Nath over his recent remark on “tearing clothes”, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said when the dialogues and characters are “filmy”, it is obvious that the announcements by the party and the entire scenario will be “filmy”, news agency PTI reported.
Addressing a rally at Ratlam in poll-bound Madhya Pradesh on Saturday, PM Modi, as quoted by PTI, said, “The Congress leaders are filmy, their dialogues are filmy, their announcements are filmy, their characters too are filmy, and when a character is filmy, then obviously the scene too will be filmy.”
In a veiled dig at the state Congress chief over his recent remark on “tearing clothes”, that was directed at senior party leader Digvijaya Singh, PM Modi said, “A competition of tearing clothes is going on between two Congress leaders. This is just the trailer.”
It is to be noted that in the wake of protests over ticket distribution, a video went viral, showing Kamal Nath asking the protesting workers to go and “tear apart the clothes of Digvijaya Singh”.
Taunting the grand old party over infighting, PM Modi said that the “real picture” of the conflict within the Congress will come to the fore once the BJP registers a victory in the state elections on December 3.
“After the victory of the BJP on December 3, the real picture of Congress will be seen here, the real conflict within the Congress will unfold,” PTI quoted PM Modi as saying.
“This is not a fight for the CM's chair. They are engaging in dynasty politics. If Congress leaders get an opportunity, they tear the clothes of the public,” PM Modi added.
The Prime Minister also assured that if voted back to power, the government will extend the free ration scheme for 80 crore people of the country for another five years. He also said how the people of Madhya Pradesh are hailing the state’s flagship schemes ‘Ladli Behna’ and ‘Ladli Laxmi’ for the women.
Accusing the Congress of being anti-tribal, PM Modi recalled how they opposed the candidature of President Droupadi Murmu and fielded former BJP leader Yashwant Sinha against her.
