A mixture of lies, deception, corruption, nepotism & appeasement: PM
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday came down heavily on the Congress, alleging that it had prepared a model of politics which was a mixture of lies, deception, corruption, nepotism and appeasement.
"Family First is paramount in the Congress model. Therefore, their policies, customs, speech and behaviour have been devoted to managing that one thing only," Mr Modi said during his reply to the Motion of Thanks on the President's address in the Rajya Sabha. The Prime Minister said he was grateful to the nation for choosing the BJP-led NDA government to serve for the third time. "The people of India have tested our policy of progress and have seen us deliver on the promises. We have constantly worked with the ideal of 'Nation First'," Mr Modi asserted.
