He also accused the Congress of dividing the nation for its own electoral gains. In his speech in the Lok Sabha, Modi repeated allegations of corruption against the Congress party and said that while Mahatma Gandhi, Swami Vivekanand and former president Pranab Mukherjee had spoken about a “New India”, the Congress had used democracy to lie to the people. He added that it was for the people to decide the fate of the party. “It is in your character that the division of India happened. The country was broken into pieces and you sowed the poison. After 70 years of independence, not a day passes when the 125 crore Indians do not get punished for your sins. You broke India into pieces and you did it keeping elections in mind, in haste and closing doors of Parliament,” Modi said while replying in the Lok Sabha to the motion of thanks on President’s address. “You wasted all your time singing paeans to one family. You forgot India’s history and you put all your energy to ensure that the country remembered only one family…if you had worked with some responsibility, the people of this country were capable enough of taking India to new heights,” Modi said adding that if the right direction had been kept and right policies followed, the country would have been much ahead of where it is. His speech was interspersed with sloganeering and disruptions by opposition members. In a speech that lasted more than 90 minutes, Modi blamed the policies initiated by Congress for the present economic situation in the country. He said the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh for the creation of Telangana was taken up by the Congress for its electoral gains. “It (bifurcation) happened even when Parliament was not in order and without respecting feelings of people from Andhra Pradesh. We were also in the favour of creation of Telangana and we are still in the favour that it progresses,” said Modi. The prime minister also said that the President’s speech was not for any one political party and accused the Congress of seeking to “object just for the sake of objecting”.
