Modi accused the Congress of pursuing a hidden agenda regarding reservation policies, sparking controversy and political debate.<\/p>\n<p>During his speech, Modi criticized the Maha Aghadi for allegedly undermining the principles of reservation. He emphasized his commitment to safeguarding the rights of Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), and Other Backward Classes (OBC) through what he described as a \u201cmaha yagya\u201d for reservation protection.<\/p>\n<p>Modi\u2019s remarks come in the wake of a prolonged challenge he posed to the Congress, demanding written assurance that they will not compromise on the integrity of reservation quotas. Expressing frustration over the lack of response from the Congress, Modi accused them of evading accountability and maintaining a secretive agenda.<\/p>\n<p>The Prime Minister\u2019s accusation against the Congress has reignited debates surrounding reservation policies and political motivations. Critics argue that Modi\u2019s rhetoric is aimed at garnering support among marginalized communities, while supporters commend his stance on protecting reservation rights.<\/p>\n<p>He also paid homage to Baba Sant Narayan Maharaj and reminisced about the late Gopinath Munde\u2019s contributions to Beed\u2019s development. Furthermore, Modi highlighted his commitment to national progress and solicited public support for his vision of a developed India.<\/p>\n<p>PM Modi also accused the Congress of resorting to falsehoods due to their inability to match his developmental record. He characterized the opposition\u2019s tactics as a \u201cfactory\u201d of lies aimed at misleading voters. Modi\u2019s remarks underscore the intensifying rhetoric between the BJP and Congress as the election season progresses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>He characterized the opposition\u2019s tactics as a \u201cfactory\u201d of lies aimed at misleading voters. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":399,"featured_media":16531,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[1018,3720,3673,10364,5179,10365,10038,10362,10363],"class_list":["post-16527","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-india","tag-congress","tag-maharashtra","tag-narendra-modi","tag-obc","tag-pm-modi","tag-reservation-issues","tag-reservations","tag-sc","tag-st"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16527","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/399"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16527"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16527\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16531"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16527"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16527"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16527"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
