Bolangir (Odisha): Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his Odisha visit Tuesday accused the past governments at the Centre of ruling like “sultanates” and the mughals and neglecting the country’s rich heritage.
Like in his exclusive interview, Modi here is reiterating the loop holes of other governments and stating the differences that make his government more preferable.
He said, the government led by him is committed not only to conserving and preserving the country’s rich cultural heritage but also to clubbing ancient identities with modernity.
“Past governments ruled like Sultanates and neglected our rich heritage. They ignored our glorious civilization and failed to pay attention to their preservation,” Modi said at a BJP rally in Bolangir.
The prime minister said some people are even opposing celebration of International Yoga Day without understanding that yoga is India’s ancient asset.
In a pre-emptive attempt in bringing back lost treasure is Modi did not talk about black money and demonetisation, rather he pointed fingers at the ancient idols.
Claiming that priceless antique pieces and ancient idols were stolen and moved out of the country in the past, he said the NDA government has taken concrete steps to bring back the precious idols from abroad.
“In the last four years, many such idols have already been brought back,” Modi said.
