Bhubaneswar, 17th Sept. Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday slammed the Congress party and its supporters on Tuesday, alleging they were displeased with his participation in Ganesh Puja.
Addressing a rally in Bhubaneswar, Modi made these comments in response to criticism from opposition parties over his involvement in Ganesh Puja rituals at Chief Justice D.Y. Chandrachud’s residence.
“Ganesh Utsav is not just a festival of faith for our country. It played a very important role in the freedom movement,” Modi stated. He drew a historical parallel, noting that the British, who practiced divide-and-rule policies, were opposed to Ganesh Utsav. Modi suggested that contemporary figures driven by power and division also disapprove of the festival.
“The Congress and its ecosystem are upset because I participated in Ganesh Puja,” Modi remarked. He further claimed that Lord Ganesh was “put behind bars” in Karnataka, referring to recent controversies surrounding religious events in the state.
