No more dossiers on terrorists, ‘new India’ kills them on their home turf: PM Modi
PM Narendra Modi also targeted the Congress, saying that Muslim women in India were the biggest victims of their vote bank politics.
In a jibe at previous governments of the Congress at the Centre, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday asserted that “New India” does not send dossiers on terrorists to other countries but gives a “dose” to them and kills them on their home turf.
“Ten years ago, the country was suffering due to terrorism. However, Congress, despite knowing the origin of terrorism, used to send a dossier to Pakistan,” the prime minister said at a rally in Himatnagar city of Gujarat's Sabarkantha district. “Today, India doesn't send dossiers to the masters of terrorism, but gives them a dose and kills them on their home turf.” Follow full coverage of the Lok Sabha elections here.
In his speech, the prime minister also targeted the Congress, saying that Muslim women in India were the biggest victims of their vote bank politics.
“Our Muslim sisters were the biggest victims of vote bank politics... You (Congress) did not provide security to the Muslim sisters even after Supreme Court's verdict... The abolition of Triple Talaq provided security to families, not just the women... They (Congress) did not stop the practice of Triple Talaq for the vote bank…” the prime minister said, according to ANI.
“I did not worry about vote bank. I don't work for winning the elections. I wanted to make the lives of Muslim women easier and we made Triple Talaq illegal...” he added.
