바카라�Shakti바카라� Row Explained: How Rahul Gandhi바카라�s 바카라�Fight Against Shakti바카라� Remark Triggered A Political Storm

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has hit out at opposition leader Rahul Gandhi for his 'fight against Shakti' remark, made during his speech at Mumbai바카라�s Shivaji Park, calling it an insult to the Hindu faith.

During a rally in Telangana on Monday, Modi stated that fighting 'Shakti' implied a fight against all mothers and daughters, whom he considered forms of Shakti.

Modi continued with his criticism during a rally in Tamil Nadu on Tuesday, even after Rahul Gandhi shared a social media post saying the Prime Minister was attempting to change the meaning of his words.

What is Rahul Gandhi바카라�s Shakti remark?

During his last stop of the 63-day Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra in Mumbai, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said in his speech that they weren바카라�t fighting against BJP or one person. 

바카라�There바카라�s a word in Hindu religion- Shakti- we are fighting against shakti. We are fighting against a shakti,바카라� he said.

바카라�As someone said, the spirit of the king is in the EVM. That바카라�s right, the king바카라�s spirit is in the EVM, it is in every institution of India, ED, CBI, Income Tax department,바카라� he added.

Gandhi, while citing the example of a Maharashtra Congress leader who had quit the party, said, 바카라� senior leader from this state, when he leaves Congress cries and says to my mother, Sonia ji, I바카라�m ashamed, I don바카라�t have the courage to fight this 바카라�shakti바카라�, I don바카라�t want to go to jail.바카라�

바카라�The shakti that I바카라�m talking about, it held these politicians by the neck and took them over to the BJP side,바카라� he said referring to the politicians who have over the years switched parties.

Gandhi바카라�s words, however, he claims were taken in a different context by PM Modi.

How Modi reacted to 바카라�Shakti바카라� Comment

During his rally in Telangana, PM Modi said that the INDIA bloc had stated in their manifesto that their fight was against Shakti. 

바카라�For me every mother is a form of Shakti. Every daughter is a form of Shakti바카라� I worship you as a form of shakti. I am a worshipper of Bharat Ma,바카라� Modi said.

바카라�How can anyone talk about destruction of shakti on this land?바카라� he added.

Modi challenged Gandhi and said the 바카라�muqabla바카라� would be on, on June 4, which is the day the Lok Sabha election results would be declared.

Rahul Gandhi바카라�s post on X

In a post on X, Rahul Gandhi claimed that the meaning of his words had been changed by Modi because he knew Gandhi had spoken the 바카라�deep truth바카라�.

바카라�Modi ji does not like my words, he always tries to change their meaning by twisting them in some way or the other because he knows that I have spoken a deep truth,바카라� he said.

바카라�The power that I mentioned, the power that we are fighting, is the mask of that power, Modi ji.바카라�

The Congress leader added that it was the power that had captured India's institutions, CBI, IT, ED, Election Commission, media, Indian industry and the entire constitutional structure of India.

바카라�I recognize that power, Narendra Modi ji also recognizes that power. He is not a religious power of any kind, He is the power of unrighteousness, corruption and falsehood,바카라� the post read.

Modi hits out again in Tamil Nadu

Addressing the crowd during a rally in Tamil Nadu on Tuesday, the Prime Minister again criticised the opposition saying the leaders had repeatedly targeted and insulted the Hindu faith.

"INDI alliance people repeatedly deliberately insult Hindu faith; every statement made by them against it is well thought out," he said.

In Hinduism, Shakthi means "Matru shakthi, naari shakti," he said, referring to women power. 

"INDI alliance which has the Congress and the DMK says they will destroy this."
