As The US Tarrifs Dateline Looms, Prime Minister Narendra Modi Plays The Emotional Swadeshi Card

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has  asserted he can’t compromise on interests of farmers, cattle-rearers, small-scale industries, cautioning ‘pressure on us may increase, but we will bear it’, remarks coming two days before the 50 per cent United States tariffs on Indian goods kick in.

According to PTI, Addressing a gathering in Ahmedabad after launching multiple projects, he hit out at the Congress, saying the party, which ruled India for 60 to 65 years, made the nation dependent on other countries in order to indulge in ‘import scams’.

India is empowered by walking on the path of Sudarshan Chakradhari Mohan Lord Shrikrishna, who symbolised strength and protection, and Charkhadhari Mohan Mahatma Gandhi, the independence movement hero who pushed for swadeshi with his spinning wheel, the PM maintained.

Referring to Operation Sindoor, India’s military response to the Pahalgam massacre, and in an oblique reference to Pakistan, he declared India no longer spares terrorists and their masters.

“Operation Sindoor embodied the bravery of our soldiers and determination of Sudarshana Chakradhari Mohan’s India. Today, we do not spare terrorists and their masters, no matter where they are hiding,” the PM told the gathering.
