PM Modi, without naming A Raja, said the Congress and the DMK have launched their ”outdated 2G missile”.
Taking on Tamil Nadu’s opposition DMK today over its senior leader A Raja’s insult to Chief Minister E Palaniswami, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today called him an ”outdated 2G missile”. The AIADMK has been at the centre of the backlash over the remark of the former Union minister.
PM Modi, without naming A Raja, said the Congress and the DMK have launched their ”outdated 2G missile”. The missile, he added, has one clear target — the women of Tamil Nadu.
“A few days ago, this missile was launched by the UPA with a clear order to attack the nari shakti (women power) of Tamil Nadu. Today the Congress and the DMK have insulted the respected mother of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister K Palaniswami,” PM Modi said.
“God forbid, if they come to power, they will insult many other women of Tamil Nadu,” he added.
In a recent campaign speech, Mr Raja heaped insults on the Chief Minister, making unparliamentary remarks about his birth and saying he was “worth a rupee less than [DMK chief MK] Stalin’s slipper”.
Mr Palaniswami, campaigning for the April 6 elections, almost broke down on Sunday.
