PM Modi’s Fiery Speech at NDA Rally
Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a sharp attack on the Opposition at a National Democratic Alliance (NDA) rally in Patna, labeling their coalition a “tie-up of thugs” (ghoton ka gatbandhan). The speech marked a major escalation in the BJP’s 2024 Lok Sabha election campaign, positioning the NDA as the sole alternative to what he called “corrupt and dynastic politics.”
Modi’s Scathing Remarks on Opposition Unity
PM Modi directly targeted the INDIA bloc, a coalition of over two dozen Opposition parties, accusing them of uniting only to “loot the nation” and protect their “family interests.” “These parties have no vision, no agenda, and no leader. Their only goal is to stop Modi,” he declared, energizing the crowd.
He cited multiple corruption cases linked to Congress, RJD, TMC, and DMK leaders, including the 2G and coal scams. “From Saradha to liquor policy scandals, their leaders are out on bail. Should such people govern India?” he questioned.
NDA’s Development-Focused Campaign
Contrasting the Opposition’s approach, Modi highlighted the NDA’s infrastructure projects, welfare schemes, and India’s growing global influence. He pointed to Bihar’s progress under Nitish Kumar’s alliance with the BJP, emphasizing new roads, bridges, and AIIMS hospitals.
“The NDA stands for progress, while the Opposition thrives on corruption,” he asserted, urging voters to reject divisive politics.
Opposition Strikes Back
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi accused Modi of diverting attention from unemployment and inflation, while RJD’s Tejashwi Yadav dismissed the remarks as “desperate name-calling.” Analysts suggest Modi’s aggressive rhetoric aims to consolidate BJP’s base and frame the election as a choice between stability and chaos.
Why Bihar Matters
Bihar, with 40 Lok Sabha seats, is a critical battleground. The NDA faces a tough fight against the RJD-Congress-Left alliance. Modi’s Patna rally signals a no-holds-barred strategy to counter Nitish Kumar’s declining appeal and RJD’s caste-based mobilization.
What Lies Ahead?
As elections near, expect more heated exchanges. The BJP is doubling down on its narrative of development and nationalism, while the Opposition struggles for cohesion. For voters, the choice is clear: Modi’s “guarantee of growth” or an untested Opposition alliance.
