What did PM Modi say?

Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated on Sunday that his government is working continuously to ensure that the ongoing conflict in West Asia has minimal impact on India. Furthermore, he accused the Congress of making dangerous remarks that jeopardize the lives of Indians for political advantage. Addressing a rally of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) here, Modi noted that many people from Kerala are working in conflict-ridden regions, emphasizing that their safety remains our utmost priority.

What is the Central Government's Endeavor?

PM Modi remarked that, at this moment, everyone's attention is focused on the ongoing conflict in West Asia. "Our government is making ceaseless efforts to ensure that this conflict has the least possible impact on India." Highlighting the ongoing diplomatic initiatives, Modi stated, "Since the very onset of the conflict, I have been in constant contact with the heads of state of all these nations. All these nations are prioritizing the safety of Indians stranded in the conflict zones." He added that Indian embassies abroad are working around the clock to assist their citizens.

Modi affirmed, "Our Indian embassies are working day and night to ensure that our brothers and sisters there do not have to face any form of hardship. For the BJP-NDA government, safeguarding the interests of Indians is the highest priority."

The Congress seeks to endanger the lives of nearly ten million Indians residing in the Gulf nations solely to derive political mileage from the situation."
