While addressing a rally in Rajasthan’s Banswara on Sunday, Modi suggested that if the Congress came to power, it would redistribute the wealth among Muslims.

Modi alleged that the Congress planned to give people’s hard-earned money and valuables to “infiltrators” and “those who have more children”, referring to Muslims.

Following the hate speech which triggered nationwide outrage, opposition leaders also slammed PM Modi’s comments that targeted a particular community. Some leaders also appeal to people to reach out to the Election Commission of India.
