In his traditional aggressive and dictatorial rhetoric, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has threatened the peasant protesters to be ready for tough action, saying that during the protests, those who attacked the Red Fort and waved flags desecrated the country and the flag, an unforgivable crime. Yes, we will not forgive such elements.
According to Indian media, in an audio message broadcast on the radio, Prime Minister Narendra Modi strongly condemned the entry of a tractor rally of farmers into the capital on January 26 on the occasion of Republic Day and the attack on the Red Fort by protesters. The whole country was saddened by the desecration of the tricolor at the Red Fort on January 26, but we have to hope for the future and emerge in a new way. The whole country is saddened by this incident. Four days after the incident, Prime Minister Modi Breaking his silence, he said in a threatening tone that the protesters have desecrated the Indian flag which has brought the country into disrepute all over the world. We will not forgive those who insulted the flag and the country. We have to emerge in a new hope and in a new way. We have shown extraordinary patience and courage last year. This year too, we have to work hard to prove our commitment and move our country forward faster.
Narendra Modi, ignoring the decision of the Supreme Court, aside from the farmers' protests, once again built bridges of self-imposed definition of his agricultural policy and tried unsuccessfully to defend his controversial policy.
It should be noted that thousands of farmers had been protesting on the borders of the capital for three months against the anti-farmer agricultural policy of Modi government. However, when no hearing was held, they entered New Delhi on Republic Day and hoisted their flags at the Red Fort.
