Also Read: If a Kabristan Can be Constructed, so Should a Shamshaan: PM Modi “Gaon mein agar kabristan banta hai, to gaon mein shamshaan bhi banana chahiye. Agar Ramzan mein bijli milti hai, to Diwali mein bhi milni chahiye. Agar Holi mein bijli milti hai, to Eid par bhi bijli milni chahiye. Bhedbhav nahin hona chahiye (If a village receives funds for a graveyard, then it should also get funds for a cremation ground. If you provide uninterrupted power supply for Eid, then you should also do it for Holi. There should not be any discrimination),” Modi said. ***On Monday, KC Mittal, the Secretary of Legal and Human Rights department of the Congress party confirmed that they will file a complaint.*** [Emphasis added.] Modi’s remarks drew instant criticism from all quarters, with political parties taking the lead. “Instead of looking at the ‘Janam Kundli’ of the Congress Party, it is time for the BJP to look into their ‘Karam Kundali’ because loss is written there on account of the demons of the demonetisation,” Congress leader Randeep Surjewala said. He further said that Modi’s “intemperate language” proves that they know they have lost the battle in Uttar Pradesh. Samajwadi Party’s Abu Azmi also condemned the prime minister’s remarks.
