PM Modi Hits Out At Rahul Gandhi Over His References To ‘Bharat Mata’

The Prime Minister asserted that culprits behind heinous crimes against women will be given stringent punishment.

During his reply to the Opposition’s no-confidence motion, Modi hit out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his references to ‘Bharat Mata’ and wondered why some people wish her death.

“These are people who sometime speak about the murder of democracy and the murder of the Constitution. These are the people (Congress) who divided Bharat Mata into three pieces. When the time came to free Bharat Mata of slavery, they chopped off her limbs,” he said in a scathing attack on the Congress.

“The violence in Manipur is saddening. Crimes against women are unacceptable and the central and state governments are working together to ensure the guilty are punished,” Modi added.
