Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday pitched for the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) and hit out against those supporting the practice of Triple Talaq while addressing a rally in poll-bound Madhya Pradesh.
In a question and answer session with party workers in Bhopal after flagging off five Vande Bharat trains, PM Modi took multiple jibes at the Opposition and said that the BJP had decided it won’t adopt the path of appeasement and vote bank politics in the run-up to the polls.
“Some people live only for their party, want to do good to the party and they do all this because they get a share of corruption, commission, cut money. The path they have chosen does not require much effort and this is the path of appeasement,” PM Modi said.
Here are some highlights from the Prime Minister’s speech:
01
On triple talaq
Asked by a BJP worker about triple talaq, PM Modi said: "The people who advocate Triple Talaq are votebank-hungry people, and they are doing injustice to Muslim women... Triple Talaq destroy the entire family."
"Muslim-majority countries have also banned Triple Talaq. Recently, I was in Egypt...They abolished Triple Talaq around 80-90 years ago," he added
02
On Uniform Civil Code
In his speech, PM Modi also batted for a Uniform Civil code: "Today people are being instigated in the name of UCC. How can the country be run on two (laws)? The Constitution also talks of equal rights...Supreme Court has also asked to implement UCC."
He further accused the Opposition of opposing the UCC for "vote bank politics".
03
On 'discrimination against Pasmanda Muslims'
In yet another veiled jab at the Opposition, PM Modi said that the country's Pasmanda Muslims have been facing widespread discrimination in the name of vote bank politics.
"Our Pasmanda Muslim brother and sisters life has been made hell by those who do vote banks. They live a life of struggle. No one listens to them. They have been discriminated against so much, but there has been no debate on this. Even today, Pasmanda Muslims are not given an equal share. They are thought of as untouchables," he said.
04
On 'Opposition Unity' & Patna meet
Meanwhile, speaking about the Opposition's recent attempts to band together ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha polls, PM Modi said that this was a reflection of their "helplessness".
"People and parties who used to abuse each other are now falling on each other's feet, and this reflects their helplessness," he said. "Don't be angry, pity them."
05
On Opposition's "corruption"
Accusing the Opposition of being self-serving, the Prime Minister said that these parties had adopted the "path of appeasement", which, he said, would ultimately lead to the "destruction" of the country.
"Some people live only for their party, want to do good to the party and they do all this because they get a share of corruption, commission, cut money. The path they have chosen does not require much effort and this is the path of appeasement," he said.
"Their politics runs only by keeping the poor poor, the deprived deprived. This path of appeasement can give benefits for a few days but it is a great destroyer for the country. It stops the development of the country, increases discrimination in the country, brings destruction in the country... creates a wall in the society," he added.
06
'Will not follow path of appeasement'
PM Modi said that unlike the Opposition, the BJP will not follow "the path of appeasement". "Our values are different, our resolutions are bigger and our priority is more than the party. The first is of the country. We believe that when there is good for the country, then there will be good for all. BJP has decided that we do not have to follow the path of appeasement. The way to do good to the country is not appeasement, it is satisfaction," he said.
07
On political nepotism
In yet another jibe at the Opposition, PM Modi said that those who had sought votes in the name of their family members, ended up only serving members of their own family.
"If you want to do good to your son-daughter, grandson-grandson... the children of your family, then vote for BJP," he added.
