Modi says he is not bothered about threats to him
Prime Minister Narendra Modi Wednesday said he was not bothered about threats and abuses against him and asserted that he would do whatever was needed to make India strong.
Citing a Congress leader's remarks on 'killing' him, he said, "I am not bothered about threats and abuses. Will do whatever it takes to make India strong."
Lashing out at the Opposition, he said they are guided by politics and selfish interests and neither want a strong India or a strong armed force.
"Modi hatred" was reaching new levels daily, he said and added that "there is a competition on who abuses him the most...some even abuse my lower caste."
The opposition should clearly state their plan to take the nation forward, he said and reiterated his "maha milawat," jibe (adulteration alliance) against them.
Modi recalled that as many as 50 governments were dismissed by former Prime Minsiter Indira Gandhi using Article 356. Even the DMK had become a victim, he said and hit out at the Dravidian party .
