Modi lashes out at Congress chief Kharge over his Kashmir comment

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday lashed out at Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge over his remarks on Jammu and Kashmir a day before in Rajasthan's Jaipur. 

At a rally in Rajasthan, Kharge referred to PM Modi's recent speech and mentioned the scrapping of Article 370 was not Rajasthan's issue but of Jammu and Kashmir.

Addressing a rally in Bihar's Nawada on Sunday, PM Modi said he felt "ashamed" listening to what Kharge said.

"The post of the national president of the Congress is not a small thing. And you are saying 'Kashmir se kya lena dena' (what is the relevance of Kashmir). Is Jammu and Kashmir not an integral part of the country? His thinking betrays the mindset of tukde- tukde," said PM.

The PM highlighted that security personnel from all over India, including Rajasthan and Bihar, have laid down their lives fighting terrorists in J&K, and "The youths of Rajasthan and Bihar gave their supreme sacrifice while protecting Jammu and Kashmir. 

"The INDIA bloc talks a lot about the Constitution. Their leaders should tell the people why they could not implement the Samvidhan of Baba Saheb Ambedkar fully in Jammu and Kashmir. Why did it take Modi to do so?" the PM asked.
