PM Modi reminds Congress of 1980s 'gutter' insult| Bharat Ki Baat

In a stinging attack on the Congress, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said the Opposition party thinks only the Nehru-Gandhi family had contributed to the country's progress and mockingly quipped that it had "risen" so much that it had lost connect with the ground situation.
Modi also targeted the Congress over its approach towards Muslims while insisting that his own government's effort to end the practice of instant triple talaq should not be linked to religion.
He said a former Congress minister had stated recently that the leadership of Rajiv Gandhi was of the opinion that it was not the job of the Congress party to reform the Muslims and that "if they (Muslims) wanted to stay in a gutter, then let them be there".
