Union Home Minister Amit Shah called Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge's statement "distasteful and disgraceful." The development came after the Congress Chief in his speech said that he would continue to live until Prime Minister Narendra Modi is no longer in power.
Shah took to X to respond to Kharge’s comments. He said that the words spoken by the Congress Chief shows the “hatred and fear” that Congress party has for Narendra Modi. "Yesterday, the Congress President Shri Mallikarjun Kharge Ji has outperformed himself, his leaders and his party in being absolutely distasteful and disgraceful in his speech. In a bitter display of spite, he unnecessarily dragged PM Modi into his personal health matters by saying that he would die only after removing PM Modi from power," he said.
Home Minister Shah further added in his post, “It just shows how much hate and fear these Congress people have of PM Modi, that they are thinking of him constantly. As for the health of Mr. Kharge Ji, Modi Ji prays, I pray and we all pray that he lives a long, healthy life. May he continue to live for many years and may he live to see the creation of a Viksit Bharat by 2047.”
While speaking at a polling event in Jasrota, Jammu and Kashmir, Kharge experienced an episode of blackout. However, resuming his speech, Kharge further remarked, “I am 83 years old. I am not going to die so early. I will stay alive till (Prime Minister) Modi is removed from power. I will listen to you. I will fight for you. I wanted to talk. But due to dizziness, I have sat down. Please pardon me.”
Unlike Shah, Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke with the congress chief later on and inquired about his health.
Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman supported the comments made by Home Minister Shah. She said on X, “Aptly said, HM @AmitShah ji. The leadership of @INCIndia never loses any opportunity to display their hate towards @narendramodi ji. This speech of @kharge ji is one such an instance. We join in praying for the long life of Congress president @kharge ji. We wish he lives to see #ViksitBharat India @2047.”
