Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the controversy surrounding alleged abusive remarks made about his late mother during a Bihar rally. He expressed his disapproval of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav for involving his mother in political discourse. The Prime Minister stated that the verbal abuse directed at his mother on the Opposition bloc’s campaign stage had caused offense to all mothers and sisters.
During the launch of the Bihar Rajya Jeevika Nidhi Saakh Sahkari Sangh Limited, aimed at providing financial assistance to women entrepreneurs, the Prime Minister stated, “In Bihar, slangs were used for my mother from an RJD-Congress stage. These slangs have not just insulted my mother, but every mother and sister in India. I know you are pained as much as I am after you heard this.”
