‘Politics Of Convenience’: Kapil Sibal Hits Back At PM Modi’s 'Parivarvaad' Remarks

During his public address in Telangana Modi said his government has attacked the real root of corruption of dynastic forces who want to keep their control over every system.  

Rajya Sabha MP Kabil Sibal on Sunday accused the Bharatiya Janata Party of indulging in “politics of convenience” as he hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his 'parivarvad' remark in Telangana and cited past instances of the party aligning with dynastic political families in various states. 

During a public meeting in Hyderabad, PM Modi took a swipe at Bharat Rashtra Samithi chief and Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao and urged the state government to not allow any hindrance in the works related to the development.

Hitting out at the PM, Sibal took to Twitter and said:  "PM Takes swipe at KCR: Says corruption and dynasty go hand in hand. Why did BJP join: 1) Punjab (Akalis) 2) Andhra (Jagan) 3) Haryana (Chautalas) 4) J&K (Muftis) 5) Maharashtra (Thackerays)...Not dynasties when BJP joined them!" "It's called the politics of convenience!"

In another tweet, the former Union minister said, “"PM: Takes a swipe at KCR, says dynasty and corruption go hand in hand. BJP makes allegations of corruption against AAP.  No dynasty there. Need not be a dynasty to allege corruption." "You say BJP is not a dynasty. Is the BJP corrupt?" he said.

During his public address in Telangana Modi said his government has attacked the real root of corruption of dynastic forces who want to keep their control over every system.  

"Should we fight against corruption or not? Should we fight against the corrupt or not? Should the country be liberated from corruption or not? Should legal steps be taken against the corrupt, however big or not. Should the law be allowed to work against the corrupt or not," he asked the gathering.  

That's why "these people" are upset and they are doing anything out of anger, Modi said.
