Responding to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recent comments on the Congress manifesto for the Lok Sabha polls, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge criticized BJP leaders, urging them to examine their party’s history. Kharge alleged that the BJP attempts to “divide” the nation along religious lines and pointed to their past associations with the Muslim League. “They should read their own history,” Kharge remarked in an interview with ANI.
Kharge rebuked PM Modi for his narrow focus on Hindu-Muslim dynamics, accusing him of fostering religious division and societal fracture. He highlighted the key promises in the Congress manifesto, such as employment generation, financial support for women, and farmer welfare, questioning their alignment with Muslim League ideology.
