Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday virtually inaugurated 10 new government medical colleges in Maharashtra. While addressing the event he hit out at the Congres party saying that it strives to divide the society on caste lines. Taking a dig at the Congress party, the PM said it leaves no stone unturned to incite fighting among Hindus.
The prime minister added that Congress is failing the Sanatan concept of 'Sarvajan Hitaye, Sarvajan Sukhaye.' He said, "Congress fights elections on completely communal and casteist lines. Dividing the Hindu society and making it their winning formula is the basis of Congress's politics. Congress is suppressing the Indian tradition of 'Sarvajan Hitaye - Sarvajan Sukhaye', it is suppressing the Sanatan tradition.”
