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.

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.

New Delhi, May 30: As the NDA government completes one year of its second term, Prime Minister Narendra Modi listed several achievements and initiatives taken by his government in the past year in an audio message addressed to the people of the country.

PM Modi said, "This day last year began a golden chapter in the history of Indian democracy. It was after several decades that the people of the country voted back a full-term government with a full majority."

"Your role has played a pivotal role in creating this chapter. In such a situation, this day is an opportunity for me to bow to the citizens of the country and the democratic ethos of our nation," said PM Modi.

"Had the situation been normal, I would have got the chance to meet you. Your affection and active support in the past year have given me new energy and inspiration. During this period, the way you have shown the collective powers of democracy, they have become an example for the whole world," he added.

PM Modi talked about several important initiatives taken by his government in 2014 as well as India's demonstration of its mettle through the surgical strike and airstrike.

"Six years ago in 2014, the people of this country voted to bring a major change in the country. You voted to change the country's policy and manner. During that tenure where surgical strike and airstrike took place, one rank one pension, one nation one tax GST, and better MSP for farmers were also fulfilled. That period was dedicated to fulfilling many needs of the country."

He further said that in these years the country has seen systems coming out of the quagmire of inertia and corruption. The country has seen governance change to make life easier for the poor.

"During that period, India's stature in the world increased. By opening bank accounts of poor people, by giving them gas connections, by providing free electricity connections, by building washrooms, by building houses, the dignity of the poor has also been increased," said PM Modi.
