India Today
"Even after so many defeats, over so many decades, neither has your [Congress party's] arrogance gone nor has your ecosystem let you shed your arrogance," PM Modi said in his speech in Lok Sabha.
Congress hasn't shed its ego even after facing electoral defeat in multiple states for decades now, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Monday.
Addressing the Lok Sabha during a discussion on the Motion of Thanks to the President, PM Modi attacked the Congress party and its "ecosystem".
He stated in Parliament that the Congress has not been in power in multiple states, including West Bengal, Tripura and Tamil Nadu, for many consecutive decades now. "These states are still not ready to accept you [Congress]," he said.

"Even after so many defeats, over so many decades, neither has your [Congress party's] arrogance gone nor has your ecosystem let you shed your arrogance," said PM Modi.
The Prime Minister further said that if Opposition parties "were connected to the ground", they would have seen how the government has improved the lives of people with its schemes on housing, water connections and gas cylinders.
"Many of you [Congress MPs] are people whose needle is stuck in 2014. They cannot get out of it. You have paid for it. The way you have bound yourself in a mental state, the people of the country have understood you," PM Modi said during his address to the Lok Sabha.
