In a veiled criticism aimed at Rahul Gandhi, Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed astonishment at the derogatory term “nashedi” used to describe the youth of Uttar Pradesh. Without directly mentioning Rahul Gandhi, PM Modi highlighted remarks made by the scion of the Congress family, implying that he referred to UP’s youth as addicts. “Those who are not in their right senses are labeling the youth of UP, my Kashi, as addicts,” PM Modi asserted, strongly condemning the comment made by Rahul Gandhi during his Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra.
Addressing a rally in Varanasi, PM Modi emphasized his shock at the derogatory language used, emphasizing that nobody would forget this insult hurled at the youth by the INDI alliance. He further criticized the dynasty mindset, suggesting that individuals from such backgrounds often feel threatened by the common youth force and prefer praise over criticism. PM Modi also expressed surprise at the Congress’s animosity towards Lord Ram, insinuating that they prioritize their family and vote bank over broader interests.
Regarding the INDIA bloc, PM Modi remarked on their pre-election unity followed by post-election discord, likening it to “nil battey sannata.”
Rahul Gandhi’s comments came during a rally in Amethi as part of his Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, where he addressed unemployment concerns and criticized the lack of opportunities for youth. He mentioned observing youth lying intoxicated on the streets of Varanasi and implied a disparity in access to places like the Ram Mandir. Additionally, he questioned the media’s coverage of issues like unemployment and suggested bias in favor of the wealthy.
