Haqikat Kya Hai: Decoding PM Modi's 92-minute speech in Lok Sabha

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has yet again called out "andolanjeevis" for "hijacking" the farmers' protest. Modi, who was replying to the Motion of Thanks on the President’s address in Lok Sabha on Wednesday, said he considered the farmers' protest to be "pavitra (pure)". However, he urged the country to stay wary of "andolanjeevis". "I consider the Kisan Andolan to be Pavitra. But, when Andolanjeevis hijack Pavitra Andolans, showcase photos of those jailed for serious offences, does it serve any purpose? Not allowing toll plazas to work, destroying telecom towers- does it serve a Pavitra Andolan," the prime minister said in the lower house.
