22.04.2024 : In response to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recent speech in Rajasthan where he accused the Congress of planning to redistribute wealth among Muslims, the Congress party has issued a challenge. They are daring PM Modi to pinpoint any references in their manifesto that suggest such redistribution.
During a rally in Rajasthan, PM Modi alleged that the Congress manifesto hinted at a plan to calculate and distribute gold owned by mothers and sisters among others. However, the Congress leadership has vehemently denied these allegations.
In a statement issued on Sunday, the Congress challenged PM Modi to highlight a single paragraph in their manifesto supporting his claims. They clarified that there is no mention of redistributing wealth specifically to the Muslim community or any religious group in their official document.
This exchange highlights the ongoing political tension and accusations between the ruling party and the opposition. As the election season progresses, such debates over policies and statements are likely to continue dominating the political discourse.
