Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s remarks in Rajasthan focus on three significant statements from the Congress camp, according to BJP sources. These statements include Rahul Gandhi’s April 6 comment on wealth redistribution, former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s 2006 statement about the first right of minorities, and the Congress manifesto’s pledge to ensure minorities receive their fair share.
A top BJP leader told News18 that Congress needs to clarify its intentions behind these statements and promises. The leader emphasized that PM Modi has challenged Congress on its agenda.
Rahul Gandhi’s April 6 statement called for wealth redistribution as an extension of the proposed caste census. A BJP leader noted that the Constitution does not allow for such an exercise, which raises public concerns.
The BJP also questioned the Congress manifesto’s promise of “affirmative action” after a caste census and socio-economic survey, urging the party to clarify its commitment to ensuring minorities receive their fair share of opportunities without discrimination.
The BJP is using these statements from Congress to challenge the opposition party in the current elections.
