In an apparent reference to the political row over his visit to Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud’s home for Ganesh Puja, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said the “Congress and its ecosystem” were angry because he participated in Ganesh Puja.
Addressing a rally in Odisha’s capital Bhubaneswar, the Prime Minister said, “Ganesh Utsav is not just a festival of faith for our country. It played a very important role in the freedom movement.”
“Even at that time, the British who followed the policy of divide and rule used to hate Ganesh Utsav. Even today, the power-hungry people busy in dividing and breaking the society are having problems with Ganesh Puja. You must have seen that the people of Congress and its ecosystem are angry because I participated in Ganesh Puja,” he said.
