New Delhi [India], March 18 (ANI): RJD MP Manoj Jha on Tuesday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi did not in his speech in the Lok Sabha mention about the people who lost their lives during MahaKumbh.
"This was a monologue, not a dialogue as he (PM Modi) does not believe in dialogue," Jha told ANI when asked about PM Modi's speech early in the Lok Sabha on MahaKumbh.
"He should have at least spoken two words about those who lost their lives in the MahaKumbh. This would have sent a message that the government is sensitive," Jha said.
Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi attributed the "success" of MahaKumbh in Prayagraj to the dedication of the public, administration, and devotees across the country and highlighted the collective efforts that contributed to the grand event.
Speaking in Lok Sabha, PM Modi expressed deep gratitude towards the people of Uttar Pradesh and Prayagraj for their efforts in hosting the event, calling the Mahakumbh a symbol of India's growing national consciousness.
"I am here to make a statement on the Mahakumbh held in Prayagraj. I want to thank the public and administration for the successful organisation of the Mahakumbh. The success of the Mahakumbh is the result of the efforts of various people. I want to thank everyone: the country's devotees, the public of UP, especially the people of Prayagraj. We all know that strenuous efforts took place to bring Ganga to earth; similar efforts have been made to hold the grand Mahakumbh," said PM Modi.
He further said that the whole world has witnessed the great glory of Bharat through this event.
"This is because of the contribution of the country's people. This Mahakumbh was inspired by the faith of the people, for the determination of the people. In this Mahakumbh, we saw the greatness of the awakening of our national consciousness," he said.
He emphasised that the event was not just a spiritual gathering but a powerful demonstration of the nation's potential and resolve.
The Mahakumbh 2025 concluded on the auspicious occasion of Maha Shivratri on February 26, in which more than 66 crore 21 lakh devotees had the opportunity of bathing in the holy Triveni waters. (ANI)
