Modi blasts Congress for ‘anti-India’ poll manifesto
In a strident attack on the Congress, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday termed its poll manifesto “anti-India” and playing with the future of the country.
“The Congress, if elected, has promised to change the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act (AFSPA) in Kashmir, which will weaken our fight against terrorism,” said Modi at a massive BJP rally here ahead of the Lok Sabha elections’s first phase in Karnataka on April 18.
Terming the Congress itself “anti-national”, he alleged that the party that ruled the country for over 50 years was talking in favour of Pakistan by assuring in its manifesto of withdrawing troops from Jammu and Kashmir.
