Bhopal: Senior Congress leader Digvijaya Singh on Tuesday trained guns at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and compared him with Hitler for “spreading a feeling of threat to his advantage”.
In a series of tweets, Singh took back-to-back digs at PM Modi and his Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) over a number of issues.
Taking to his official Twitter handle, Digvijaya Singh called out the Hindu-Muslim enmity and how RSS and PM Modi are using it to hold power.
In another tweet, the former Madhya Pradesh CM said, “Every Fascist Dictator creates a Demon and Enemy to spread a feeling of threat to use for his advantage. This is what Hitler did and this is what Modi is doing.”
He also alleged that the BJP keeps the people fighting over issues of religion and runs away from discussing core issues.
Singh’s attacks have come a day after PM Modi tweaked his own party’s inclusive development slogan, “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas”, to coin a motto for the “selfish” Opposition – “Khud ka Swarth, Parivar ka Swarth”.
Addressing a rally in Himachal Pradesh’s Mandi to mark the fourth anniversary of the Jai Ram Thakur government in the state, Modi said there are now models in operation for running a government. One of them, he said, is “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas” (everyone’s development, everyone’s trust, everyone’s effort).
The other model is “Khud ka Swarth, Parivar ka Swarth aur vikas bhi khud ke parivar ka” (own interest, family’s interest and family’s development), Modi added.
