New Delhi: The Bharatiya Janata Party on Monday launched a major online campaign – ‘Modi Ka Parivar’ – to counter RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav’s “parivarvaad” jibe at the Prime Minister, with several top leaders, including Amit Shah and JP Nadda, adding the suffix on their social media handles in solidarity with Narendra Modi.Union ministers Amit Shah, Anurag Thakur, Rajnath Singh and BJP president JP Nadda added ‘Modi Ka Parivar’ suffix to their names on social media platform X (formally Twitter).
Launching a frontal attack on Modi on his recent comments on dynastic politics, the RJD supremo while addressing workers of the grand alliance at Jan Vishwas Maha Rally on Sunday, said, “What can we do if Narendra Modi does not have a family of his own? He keeps bragging about the Ram temple. He is not even a true Hindu. In Hindu tradition, a son must shave his head and beard upon the demise of his parents. Modi did not do so when his mother died.”
Reacting to Lalu Prasad’s comments, Modi, at a rally in Adilabad in Telangana on Monday, said, “I question their dynastic politics, they say Modi does not have a family, my life is an open book…I will live for my country.”
Holding a press conference, BJP MP Sudhanshu Trivedi said for the INDIA bloc there are no Hindus. For them, Hindus are backward, Dalit, ‘Savarn’, North Indian, South Indian, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Marathi, Punjabi, Bengali, and even Hindi, but not Hindu. Because they want to see India in pieces. A family divided the country to get into politics and today, they stand with those who want to divide India so that they get to rule at least one division of the country.”

For them, Hindus are backward, Dalit, ‘Savarn’, North Indian, South Indian, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Marathi, Punjabi, Bengali, and even Hindi, but not Hindu. Because they want to see India in pieces. A family divided the country to get into politics and today, they stand with those who want to divide India so that they get to rule at least one division of the country.”Earlier, Bihar deputy chief minister Vijay Kumar Sinha criticised the RJD president’s remarks, deeming them offensive and disrespectful to Sanatan Dharma.Vijay Kumar Sinha said such behaviour from RJD leaders, including Lalu Prasad, reflects their unserious approach to politics and attempts to undermine the centuries-old tradition of Sanatan Dharma.
