Modi accused of targeting Muslims in election campaign speech

India’s political landscape has been stirred by accusations from the main opposition party, the Indian National Congress, against Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The Congress party filed a formal complaint with the Election Commission, alleging that Modi targeted minority Muslims in a recent campaign speech. These remarks, made during a rally in Rajasthan, were seen as divisive and objectionable, leading to claims of electoral law violations.

In response, the BJP spokesperson defended Modi’s statements, highlighting their resonance with public sentiment. The ongoing elections in India, with results expected on June 4th, have intensified political rhetoric and discussions around communal tensions.

Modi’s political strategy, characterized by Hindu-first politics, has been a key focus of the election campaign. Earlier this year, Modi was involved in inaugurating a temple built on a disputed site, a move that has further amplified discussions about religious politics in the country.

With accusations and defenses flying between political parties, India’s political landscape remains dynamic and charged as the election process unfolds.
