Modi Slams Rahul as 'Failed Product' and Calls Congress 'Parasite'

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a blistering critique against the primary opposition party, the Indian National Congress, and its leader Rahul Gandhi. Speaking at the NDTV World Summit in New Delhi, Modi termed the Congress party a 'parasite' and sarcastically questioned how long the party would continue attempting to market a repeatedly rejected 'failed product'.

Modi accused the opposition of endangering India's core national interests in an effort to politically establish a failed leader. Using a space metaphor, he remarked that Congress makes more failed attempts to launch its leader than the country's space agency launches rockets in an entire year. He strongly condemned political figures who criticize the country abroad or seek foreign intervention, stating such actions hurt the nation's rising stature.

Highlighting internal dynamics, Modi claimed that the Gandhi family has become a liability for Congress, alleging that even senior party leaders privately admit this reality despite remaining silent in public. He further criticized the party for disrupting parliamentary proceedings merely to keep the spotlight on a single individual, thereby sidelining other talented young opposition MPs from expressing constructive feedback.

Beyond domestic politics, the Indian Prime Minister addressed shifting geopolitical realities and advocated for comprehensive global governance reforms. He stated that international bodies created post-World War II, including the United Nations, are struggling to resolve complex modern challenges. Modi urged for structural updates to global institutions to ensure growing economies have a decisive voice on the world stage.
