Those not proud of Trump calling Modi father of the nation don’t consider themselves Indians: Jitendra Singh

New Delhi, Sept 25: Union Minister Jitendra Singh on Wednesday said those who do not feel proud of U.S. President Donald Trump’s comment that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is the father of India, do not consider themselves Indians.

India is being respected in a way which was rare in the past, Mr. Singh said on the sidelines of the launch of CPGRAMS reforms in the Department of Posts.

“People who live abroad are proud today of being Indian. This is happening due to the personality and personal outreach of Prime Minister Modi,” said the Minister of State for Prime Minister’s Office.

When asked to comment on U.S. President Trump’s statement that may be Prime Minister Modi is the father of India, Mr. Singh said that he has never heard anything like this from any American president for an Indian prime minister.

“If an impartial and bold statement comes from America and its President then I feel every Indian should feel proud regardless of his political affiliations with any party or ideolog ... This is the first time that an American president has used this kind of words of praise not for an Indian Prime Minister but for any other world leader and if someone is not proud of this, then maybe he does not consider himself Indian,” Mr. Singh said.

When asked that some Congress leaders have asserted that there could be only one father of the nation, he said for this, the Congress will have to argue with Mr. Trump.

Criticising Pakistan for its role in terrorism, the minister said “as far as terrorism and Pakistan’s role in advancing terrorism is concerned, foreign countries which earlier did not buy India’s narrative of Pakistan’s involvement in terrorism are now accepting it and its credit goes to Prime Minister Modi.”

The U.S. President on Tuesday heaped praise on Mr. Modi in New York.

“I remember India before was very torn. There was a lot of dissension, fighting and he brought it all together. Like a father would. Maybe he is the father of India,” Mr. Trump said.

Modis hug cost Trumps preaching on Indian security concerns.

Trumph is pett kammi. What can we expect from a pett kammi then? He may not know the meaning of father. He is a crook.

Oh Crazy Leaders of BJP,

Trump is under impeachment today.

Your mentor Modi is another crazy,

Unfortunately I being an Indian should say most of our citizens are stupids not to know who is good and bad for the country.

We have one father of the nation who is Mahatma Gandhi, who sacrificed his life for the nation, he is our true father of Nation.

Do you want to call this crazy man as father of nation who killed thousand in Gurjarat and now in India under the pretext of

Mob Lynching
Kashmir 370
Note bandi
Ruining National economy, causing to close all big firms and causing unemployment horror.
Playing with the judiciary system, CBI, ED
Selling all national companies
Exempting tax payers money to Ambani
Daringly awarding Raffale deal to Anil Ambani after ignoring country’s firm the HAL.
THERE ARE MANY OTHER MORE
Selling airports to businessmen

Wah what a type of supporters. Oh may fellow citizens, even if he kills you, you will trust him.

God save us.

CM Yogi’s drive to identify CAA beneficiaries runs into problems

Agencies

January 16,2020

Lucknow, Jan 16: The drive initiated by Uttar Pradesh's Yogi Adityanath government to identify non-Muslim immigrants in the state seems to have run into rough weather.

In Pilibhit, where the maximum number of about 35,000 illegal immigrants has been identified, it has now been found that information is being sought by the state government on an unverified document. A large number of families from Bangladesh settled here several decades ago.

The survey began last month even before the bill was notified. Moreover, the feedback email on the questionnaire is a Gmail ID -- [email protected] -- which is not a government server.

It is not known how the state government is drawing up the lists without having the verification criteria.

After the report was put up by a news website, Home Department officials feigned complete ignorance about the issue.

A spokesman said: "This was an unofficial and preliminary exercise to assess the number of illegal migrants in the state. The document is meant to collect basic beneficiary information. No list of potential beneficiaries has yet been sent to Delhi."

The document has eight columns asking for name, father's name, place of stay in India, and where did they come from and when. It does not mention any requirement of proof, or documents.

It also asks for a description of the kind of atrocities they faced, presumably in their home country.

The District Magistrate of Pilibhit claimed they are checking documents of the refugees, but denied any knowledge of the unsigned document.

The CAA is meant to benefit Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains, Parsis and Christians from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan who came to India before December 31, 2014. The statement of purposes of the Act adds that it is meant to benefit those fleeing religious persecution from the above countries.

Comments

Yogi is unfit to be CM as he does not know what he speaks and does. Its unfortunate that we are such idiot as CM. Instead of CAA we need PAA (Politician amendment act). We need age limit of politicians to be fixed to 65 or maximum 70 years and any one coming in politics to be free from any bad doing. No rapists/murders/looters/decoits should be allowed to contest election. Presently 90 percent of the politicians have bad record. Few are rapists, murders, having spent jail term etc.
