“PM is seemingly avoiding it due to guilt,” remarked RJD chief Lalu Yadav.
Regarding the rumored statement that PM Modi might leave the country after the 2024 Lok Sabha election, Lalu Yadav responded, “He seems to have plans to seek refuge elsewhere. He might flee, much like Ferdinand Marcos, the former President of the Philippines. His actions have allegedly accumulated a substantial amount of wrongdoing.”
By presenting these statements, Lalu Yadav implied his perspective on PM Modi’s behavior and potential actions in the future. Nevertheless, it is essential to interpret these statements responsibly and refrain from making sweeping conclusions. Open dialogue and factual discussions are crucial in the political arena to foster understanding and cooperation among leaders and citizens alike.
Ferdinand Marcos, the tenth President of the Philippines, had fled the country in February 1986 after ruling for 20 years.
The RJD chief on Sunday claimed that PM Modi was worried about losing next year’s Lok Sabha polls and looking for a place to settle abroad. He said while commenting on PM Modi’s “Quit India” jibe a few days ago when the Prime Minister had accused the opposition parties of corruption, nepotism, and appeasement politics.Lalu said: “It is Modi who is planning to quit…This is the reason why he is visiting so many countries. He is looking for a place where he can cool his heels and enjoy pizzas, momos, and chow mein.”The opposition has been demanding a statement from Prime Minister Modi on the crisis in Manipur. However, the government pushing for discussion on the issue, with a reply from Home Minister Amit Shah.
The Opposition MPs on Monday alleged that PM Modi was hiding behind his ministers to evade speaking on the Manipur issue. Congress general secretary Randeep Surjewala alleged that the Centre was taking “revenge” on Manipur and its people and was trampling on the dignity of Parliament. This came just hours after Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said the opposition was running away from a discussion and these parties were shedding “crocodile tears” on Manipur.
Hitting back, Surjewala said, “It is unfortunate that this is the government of jackals and crocodiles and that is why they cannot see a burning Manipur and pained souls there.” He said there should be a comprehensive discussion on Manipur and the prime minister should answer. “The prime minister cannot shy away from his responsibility while hiding behind his ministers,” Surjewala said.
Tiruchi Siva (DMK) said the opposition wants to have an extensive debate in Parliament on Manipur and does not want a discussion for two hours. “We don’t want to belittle this serious issue with a minor debate. That is why opposition parties are seeking a full-fledged discussion and the prime minister, who is responsible and answerable for the life of every Indian, should come to Parliament and tell what action he is taking in Manipur,” Siva said.
