'By The Family, For The Family, Of The Family': PM Modi Slams BRS, Congress Over 'Family First' Politics

Launching a scathing attack on BRS and Congress in Telangana, PM Narendra Modi emphasised BJP's commitment to 'nation first' policy, contrasting it with Congress and BRS's 'family first' approach. On Wednesday, he criticised the alleged corruption and appeasement politics linking Congress and BRS on these fronts. Regarding the ongoing Lok Sabha elections, PM Modi expressed gratitude for the support received for NDA and noted the BJP's momentum following the third phase of voting.

In his address to a public meeting in Telangana's Karimnagar, PM Narendra Modi said, "BJP always works on the 'nation first' policy whereas Congress and BRS work on the principle of 'family first'.

Corruption, appeasement politics and the model of zero governance connect these two parties..."

PM Modi claimed alleged disrespect towards former PM PV Narasimha Rao even after his death. He said, "Due to this policy of 'family first', Congress has disrespected PV Narasimha Rao, even after his death, they denied the entry of his dead body in the Congress' office. BJP-NDA govt respected PV Narasimha Rao by awarding Bharat Ratna to him..."
