On Thursday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that August 5 will be remembered in history.
He listed three significant developments in recent history – the abrogation of Article 370 from Jammu and Kashmir in 2019, the foundation-laying ceremony for the construction of a Ram Temple in Ayodhya on August 5 last year, and the Indian men’s hockey team’s win over Germany today – to signify the importance of August 5. He said the date has once again brought happiness and excitement to the people.
“Two years ago on this day, Article 370 was abrogated in Jammu and Kashmir. On this day last year, the first step was taken towards the construction of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya. Today, construction of a grand Ram Temple is underway”, said PM Modi
Meanwhile, PM Modi also slammed the Opposition for stalling Parliament saying that they cannot stop the country from marching forward.
“No matter how much some opposition parties try to disrupt Parliament proceedings and stall the development of the country, our country cannot become hostage to such selfishness and politics,” he said.
“Around 130 crore population of this country will face every challenge and move forward. At a time when the country was setting new records, some people in Delhi were trying to disrupt Parliament proceedings,” the prime minister added.
