A declaration to destroy India’s democracy: Irani attacks Soros

Terming Soros’s remarks a ‘declaration to destroy India’s democratic processes’, the union minister, Irani said Indians have defeated such ‘foreign powers’ that tried to meddle with our internal affairs earlier as well and will do so again. “I urge every Indian to give a fitting reply to George Soros,” she said.

While doing a fierce attack, the union minister said he is a designated ‘economic war criminal’ who has declared his ill-intention towards India.

Further, she said, “The man who broke the Bank of England and is designated by the nation an economic war criminal, has now pronounced his desire to break Indian democracy. George Soros, an international entrepreneur, has declared his ill-intention to intervene in the democratic processes of India.”

Moreover, the union minister has alleged that such powers try to bring down governments in other countries to ensure ‘their hand-picked people’ are in power.

Referring to the billionaire investor known for breaking the Bank of England in 1992, Irani said, “It is evident from his statements that he has pronounced funding over one billion dollars particularly to target leaders like PM Modi is significant.”

Warning to the political organizations!

She has also warned political organisations that may support the billionaire for his ‘attack’ on the PM. “Any political organisation that matches steps with George Soros will stand exposed in front of the Indian electorate,” she added.
