This refers to the reports, “Patel never promoted family: Modi takes a dig at Congress” and “Sonia vows to fight ‘diabolical design’ of hate mongers” (November 1). The public speeches of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Congress president Sonia Gandhi present contrasting attitudes on the issue of national unity and integrity.
While Ms Gandhi was full of hate, bitterness and false charges against her main political opponents, Mr Modi’s address on the day, to mark the 140th birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, on the other hand, highlighted the need for unity, peace, harmony and tolerance.
