New Delhi [India], September 30 (ANI): Union Finance Minister and BJP leader Nirmala Sitharaman on Monday backed Home Minister Amit Shah in condemning Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge for his remark about staying alive till Prime Minister Narendra Modi is removed from power.
In a post on X, Shah said Kharge's comments show the "hate and fear" the Congress has for Prime Minister 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," Shah said.
"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," the Home Minister said in a post on X.
