PM Modi also attacked the opposition
In the program, PM Modi also attacked the opposition. PM Modi said that unfortunately a section of the opposition in our country is following the old pattern. They will neither work nor allow it to be done. When we gave a new parliament to the country, the opposition opposed it. Created the path of duty, it was also criticized.
