Prime Minister Narendra Modi had accused leaders of South India of insulting people of Uttar Pradesh and Sanathana because his hatred communal campaign had failed to favour the BJP in the elections, charged Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin.
He was reacting to Mr Modi’s campaign speech in the UP, where he had said both the Congress and the Samajwadi Party (SP) “seek votes here and while in south India, when their partners use absurd and abusive language for the people of U.P. and Sanatana Dharma, they remain silent,”

“Mr. Modi has unleashed an imaginative hatred campaign and a bundle of lies. It is the BJP that made use of YouTubers such as Manish Kashyap to serve their agenda and spread fake news that migrant workers were being attacked,” Mr.Stalin said in a statement.
“Mr Modi is depressed since the hatred campaigns had failed to favor the BJP and since he had nothing to boast about the achievements of the 10-year rule of his government, he had resorted to denigrating the welfare schemes of the States ruled by opposition parties. He has proved that he is always against the poor,” he said.
Mr. Stalin said while the free bus travel for women in Tamil Nadu benefitted them in various ways, the Prime Minister had come out with a strange argument that the scheme had affected the Metro Rail service.
“Mr. Modi’s speech proves that he has scant regard for truth. The number of passengers who travelled in Metro Rail had increased to 9.11 crore in 2023 from 3.28 crore in 2019. The Prime Minister who has failed to release funds for the second phase of the Metro Rail project, as earlier agreed upon, has chosen to criticise the free bus travel. Since he subscribed to the right-wing and retrograde ideology of the RSS, he fears schemes that promote the development of women,” Mr. Stalin alleged.
