Tamil Nadu CM Slams PM Modi Over Alleged Remarks

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi over alleged remarks that DMK members harassed Bihari workers. Stalin condemned the comments as 'cheap politics' and vengeful, urging Modi to focus on national welfare instead of divisive electoral strategies.

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin took a strong stance against Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday, condemning the latter's alleged remarks accusing DMK members of harassing Bihari workers. Stalin termed Modi's comments as 'cheap politics' aimed at creating a divide between different communities.

Referring to a video clip of Modi's address, Stalin criticized the alleged 'vengeful remarks' that targeted Tamils for electoral gains ahead of the Bihar State Assembly election scheduled for November. The timing and location of Modi's speech remain unclear, but the tension highlights the political stakes in poll-bound states like Bihar and possibly Odisha.

Stalin called upon Modi and his party to abandon tactics that foster enmity among people, emphasizing that the focus should be on the nation's well-being. Asserting his position as DMK Chief, Stalin advised Modi to uphold the dignity of the Prime Minister's office by avoiding divisive rhetoric.
