Congress Criticizes PM Modi’s Praise To RSS, Says Violation Of Secular Republic
Delhi/Hyderabad, Aug 16 (Maxim News): Congress MP and former Union minister Jairam Ramesh targeted prime Minister Narendra Modi for praising Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh – the ideological mentor of the ruling BJP – in his Independence Day speech.
Soon after PM Modi acknowledged the social contribution of the RSS – ‘world’s largest NGO”, Ramesh said “The Prime Minister’s speech from the ramparts of the Red Fort was stale, hypocritical, lacklustre and alarming,”
Calling the PM’s 103 minute address a “dull mix of self praise”, Ramesh wrote on X, “The most alarming aspect of the Prime Minister’s speech was mentioning the RSS from the ramparts of the Red Fort – a blatant violation of the spirit of a constitutional, secular republic.
The politicisation of a national occasion like Independence Day for personal and organisational gaze in is deeply harmful to our democratic values, said the General Secretary in charge of Communications of the Congress. (Maxim News)
