'Bitter Display Of Spite': Amit Shah Slams Congress President Kharge For Remarks On PM Modi At J&K Rally

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday slammed Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge for his “distasteful and disgraceful” speech at a public meeting in Jammu and Kashmir, in which he made remarks about Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Shah said the speech was “a bitter display of spite”, and Kharge unnecessarily dragged the Prime Minister into his personal health matters by saying he “would die only after removing Modi from power”. He, however, wished for his “long, healthy life” so he could live to see the “creation of Viksit Bharat by 2047”.

“Yesterday, the Congress President Shri Mallikarjun Kharge Ji has outperformed himself, his leaders and his party in being absolutely distasteful and disgraceful in his speech. In a bitter display of spite, he unnecessarily dragged PM Modi into his personal health matters by saying that he would die only after removing PM Modi from power,” (sic), he wrote in a post on X.

He added: “It just shows how much hate and fear these Congress people have of PM Modi, that they are thinking of him constantly. As for the health of Mr. Kharge Ji, Modi Ji prays, I pray and we all pray that he lives a long, healthy life. May he continue to live for many years and may he live to see the creation of a Viksit Bharat by 2047.”

On Sunday (September 29), Kharge fell ill at an election rally in Jasrota in Jammu. He suffered a “syncopal attack” but resumed his speech after a brief pause, saying he will not die before Modi is removed from power.

“I am 83 years old. I am not going to die so early. I will stay alive till PM Modi is removed from power,” the Congress leader said. “I wanted to talk. But due to dizziness, I have sat down. Please pardon me.”
