PM Modi launches another scathing attack at Congress over ‘shirtless’ protest: ‘Not only took off its clothes…'

During a recent summit, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a fierce criticism of the Congress Party, accusing it of engaging in 'dirty and naked politics' on international platforms. This comment echoed his earlier remarks at a public rally in Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, where he condemned the party's actions, specifically referencing a protest that involved Congress leaders removing their shirts as a form of demonstration. Modi emphasized that such displays not only reflect poorly on the party but also undermine the dignity of serious political discourse. The Prime Minister's attacks appear to be part of a broader strategy to discredit the Congress ahead of upcoming elections, positioning his government as a bastion of decorum and seriousness in contrast to what he describes as the Congress's theatrical and irresponsible behavior. Modi's remarks have sparked discussions about the appropriateness of political protests and the standards expected from political leaders in India.
