Poll Call 2024: Modi has brazenly used communal language, says Congress
Congress questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi's statement that he has «never done Hindu-Muslim» politics in elections and that the day he would do so he would be unworthy of public life.
Spokesman Jairam Ramesh said Modi had «brazenly used communal language» during his campaign speeches and that Congress had complained to the Election Commission about it.
«Even by his own pathetic standards, Mr Modi's latest claim that he does not do Hindu-Muslim politics shows the new depths he reaches daily in lying. Since April 19, 2024, it is a matter of public record that cannot be erased from our collective memory — even if Mr Modi erases it from his own — that the outgoing PM has blatantly and brazenly used communal language, symbols and allusions. We have brought this to the attention of the Election Commission of India as well. Action should have been taken, but sadly it has not,» he said.
