Home Minister Amit Shah Slams Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge Over Remarks on PM Narendra Modi, Calls Them ‘Distasteful and Disgraceful’

New Delhi, September 30: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday criticised Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge over his remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi saying it was "distasteful and disgraceful". Taking this to social media X, HM Shah stated, "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. It just shows how much hate and fear these Congress people have of PM Modi, that they are thinking of him constantly," said HM Shah. HM Shah further stated, "As for the health of Kharge, PM Modi 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." Haryana Assembly Elections 2024: Agniveers Will Be Given a Pensionable Job, Says Amit Shah (Watch Video).
