Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday invoked an iconic scene from the legendary Hindi movie 'Sholay' to mock the Congress party, amidst a scathing critique of its electoral tactics and outcomes. Describing it as a 'parjeevi' (parasitic) entity, the Prime Minister pointed out the party's consistent losses and its habit of celebrating 'fake victories.'
'The Congress party continues to mask its failures by claiming moral victories. We've seen repeated losses in the Lok Sabha polls, yet they persist in this charade,' Modi declared in the Lok Sabha. His reference to a humorous exchange from 'Sholay' served as a sharp commentary on the Congress' electoral performance, suggesting the party remains in denial of its actual political standing.
Modi emphasized that the Congress has been detrimental not only to itself but also to its allies. 'In many states, the Congress failed to win even a single seat. The time for introspection is now, not for masking defeats with superficial celebrations,' he asserted, urging the party to genuinely understand and accept the people's mandate.
