Coming down heavily on the Opposition for their “parivarvadi” (dynastic) politics, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said the development work initiated by the Bharatiya Janata Party-led double-engine government has rattled such elements.
Speaking at a meeting in Uttar Pradesh’s Azamgarh, Mr. Modi said the Opposition has been attacking him out of frustration. “As Uttar Pradesh reaches new horizons of development, the venom of appeasement is weakening, forcing the rattled parivarvadi leaders to abuse me every day. They say Modi doesn’t have a family of his own. They forget that 140-crore citizens are Modi ka Parivar [Modi’s family],” said the Prime Minister after inaugurating and laying foundation stone for multiple developmental projects worth over ₹34,700 crore across the State.
