Election: 'Ek Hai, Safe Hai' Versus 'Ek Se Anek', Modi Slams 'Cong Divisive Conspiracy'

Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a scathing attack on the Congress on Tuesday, accusing it of pursuing a "divisive conspiracy" to appease minorities at the expense of the majority.

"The Congress has always played the politics of appeasement," Modi said at a rally in Bhopal. "They have tried to create a divide between Hindus and Muslims, between upper castes and lower castes, between rich and poor."

Modi's remarks came in the context of the upcoming assembly elections in Madhya Pradesh, where the Congress is the main opposition party. The BJP is seeking to retain power in the state, while the Congress is hoping to unseat it.

In his speech, Modi also attacked the Congress's "Ek Hai, Safe Hai" slogan, saying that it was a "hollow slogan" that did not reflect the reality of the party's policies.

"The Congress's 'Ek Hai, Safe Hai' slogan is nothing but a hollow slogan," Modi said. "They have always divided society for their own political gains."

Modi's attack on the Congress is likely to intensify as the assembly elections in Madhya Pradesh draw closer. The BJP is hoping to use the election to consolidate its position in the state, while the Congress is hoping to regain power after a 15-year hiatus.

The assembly elections in Madhya Pradesh are scheduled to be held on 28 November 2018.
