Film 'do shehzade ki jodi' rejected by people: PM Modi takes a swipe at Rahul Gandhi and Akhilesh Yadav;
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday (April 19) took a swipe at Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi stating that the shooting of the film “do shehzade ki jodi” (The Duo of Two Princes) is on but the citizens of the country have already rejected it.
“Every time these people seek votes from the people of Uttar Pradesh, they carry a basket of dynasty, corruption and appeasement. They do not leave any chance to attack our faith,” Modi said, addressing a rally here.
Taking a dig at Gandhi and Yadav, he said, “The shooting of the film ‘do shehzade ki jodi (a pair of princes)’ is going on. But their film has already been rejected by people.”
He then launched a scathing attack on the grand old party stating that the Congress candidate from Amroha, Danish Ali, has objections in saying “Bharat Mata ki jai”.
“Will a person, who cannot accept Bharat Mata ki jai, look good in the Indian Parliament? Should such a person be allowed entry into the Indian Parliament?” he asked the gathering.
He then slammed the opposition and said, “The SP and the Congress declined the invitation for the Ram temple’s consecration ceremony in Ayodhya. People hankering for vote banks refused the invitation for the ceremony. Instead, look at those who fought the Babri Masjid case in the Supreme Court but still participated in the consecration ceremony after losing the case.”
Iqbal Ansari, a claimant in the Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid case, attended the Ram temple consecration ceremony on Jan 22.
“They are not satisfied even after refusing the invitation, so they abuse the Ram temple and Sanatan Dharma. The SP, for its vote bank, calls Ram bhakts ‘pakhandi’ (hypocrites). Those in the INDIA opposition bloc hate Sanatan Dharma,” Modi said.
PM Modi then said that when he went under the sea to offer prayers in Gujarat’s Dwarka, “the prince of the Congress said there is nothing to pray under the sea. They are rejecting our faith only for their vote bank”.
The Indian prime minister then hit out at Akhilesh Yadav as well as Bihar’s Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav saying, “Those in Bihar, who say they are Yaduvanshi, in Uttar Pradesh, the leader who takes the benefits of being Yaduvanshi, I want to ask them, how can they sit with a party that insults Lord Krishna? How can you have an agreement with them?”
