PM Modi steps up attack on Congress in poll-bound Assam: ‘Used rifts for selfish politics’

Prime Minister Narendra Modi intensified his criticism of the Congress party during a recent campaign rally in Assam, accusing them of exploiting societal divisions for their political gain. He specifically pointed to the party's alleged role in disseminating rumors and misinformation regarding the ongoing global crisis linked to the conflict in West Asia. Modi emphasized that the Congress's actions reflect a pattern of selfish politics that undermines national unity, especially during challenging times. This rhetoric comes as Assam prepares for crucial elections, with Modi urging voters to remain vigilant against misleading narratives. The Prime Minister's remarks are part of a broader strategy to consolidate support for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the region, where the party aims to counteract Congress's historical influence and reinforce its own governance record.
