Prime Minister Narendra Modi, addressing a campaign rally in Warangal, slammed Sam Pitroda for his recent remarks. The Prime Minister asserted, 'I will not tolerate insults directed at my fellow Indians' and expressed understanding as to why the Congress continues to disparage President Droupadi Murmu, citing her skin color as the reason. Further, he suggested that Congress may need a microscope in the fourth phase to find their seats. 

Addressing a rally in Telangana, PM Modi said"...'Shehzade aapko jawaab dena padega'. My country will not tolerate the disrespect  of my countrymen on the basis of their skin colour and Modi will never tolerate this..."

PM said: "I want to ask a serious question today...I am very angry today, if someone abuses me I can take it but this philosopher of 'Shehzada' has given such a big abuse that has filled me with anger. Will the potential of the people of the country be decided on the skin colour? Who gave this right to 'Shehzada'?. The people dancing with the Consitution on their head are insulting my countrymen on the basis of their skin colour..."

Modi expressed bewilderment over Congress's efforts to undermine Droupadi Murmu, citing her esteemed reputation as the daughter of an Adivasi family. He said, "I was thinking a lot that Droupadi Murmu who has a very good reputation and is the daughter of Adiwasi family, then why is Congress trying so hard to defeat her but today I got to know the reason. I got to know that there is an uncle in America who is the philosophical guide of 'Shehzada' and just like the third umpire in cricket this 'Shehzada' takes advice from the third umpire. This philosophical uncle said that those who have black skin are from Africa." 

Modi criticized this viewpoint, condemning the abuse of individuals based on their skin color.

Cong Searching Seats With Magnifying Glasses: PM

Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, "Two things have become clear after the third phase of elections, first- the public is taking NDA's 'Vijay Rath' forward at a fast pace. Second, Congress is searching their seats with magnifying glasses."

"After seeing your enthusiasm in Telangana, today I can say one more thing, Congress's usual magnifying glass will not be sufficient to find their seats in the fourth phase. Congress will have to use a microscope to find its seats," he said.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi highlighted the alleged wrongdoings of the previous Congress-led central government and cited frequent scams and serial bomb blasts during their tenure.

Coming down heavily on reported '5 years, 5 PM' formula, he said, "This time INDI alliance has come up with a formula of 5 years 5 PM. Just imagine, what will happen to the country if they get power. Every year there is a new PM, second year, second PM, third year, and third PM? What good can they do to the country..."
