'Dimagi Naxals' Hijacked Congress: PM Modi Slams Party for Risking India's Image
PM Modi accuses Congress of being hijacked by 'Dimagi Naxals' and risking India's global reputation to protect a dynastic legacy.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a scathing attack on the Congress party during the NDTV World Summit, accusing the opposition of risking India's international standing to promote what he termed a "failed product." The Prime Minister alleged that the party is actively working to tarnish the nation's global reputation at a time when the world is seeking a new order and stability.
Accusations of Global Defamation
Expressing concern over the current global climate of turmoil, PM Modi emphasized that the world needs to see a strong and stable India. However, he claimed that certain individuals are traveling abroad specifically to defame the country and invite foreign intervention.
"While the world is searching for a new order, some people are dreaming of disorder in India," the Prime Minister stated, questioning how long the Congress party would continue to stake the nation's reputation just to launch their "failed product."
The 'Dimagi Naxals' Theory
In one of the most striking portions of his speech, PM Modi claimed that the intellectual capacity of the Congress party has been compromised. He asserted that "Dimagi Naxals" (intellectual Naxals) have completely hijacked the party's mind, leaving it unable to think independently.
He further alleged that those who previously caused destruction in the jungles have now infiltrated the Congress party and are working from within to bring about the ruin of the nation.
Dynasty Over National Interest
The Prime Minister accused the Congress of prioritizing dynastic interests over the achievements and progress of the country. He suggested that the party is putting India's strengths on trial simply to shield its dynasty from the "recurring stain of failure."
PM Modi also highlighted a growing sense of disillusionment within the party's own ranks. He claimed that senior leaders, while remaining silent in public to avoid humiliation, have privately admitted that the ruling family has become a burden on the Congress party.
Impact on Democracy and Opposition
PM Modi argued that the Congress party's approach is detrimental not only to the government but to the entire democratic process. He claimed that the "noise" created by Congress drowns out legitimate, honest critics and constructive voices who wish to highlight administrative shortcomings or demand reforms.
Disruption in Parliament
Turning to the functioning of the legislature, the Prime Minister alleged that Congress deliberately disrupts parliamentary proceedings. He claimed this is a strategic move to ensure that young opposition MPs cannot raise their voices, thereby keeping only one specific individual in the limelight.
Describing the party's behavior as "parasitic," PM Modi concluded that Congress refuses to let any other opposition leader grow, thereby doing a "grave injustice" to the democratic fabric of the country.
