Prime Minister Narendra Modi asserted on Monday that he does not come under pressure in any circumstances. Though his remarks came while talking about big targets set by different countries around the world, it is believed he is indicating speculations over his government likely to face pressures from NDA- allies like TDP and JDU, as BJP failed to get absolute majority in recent Lok Sabha polls.
“A journalist asked me about the various big targets set by different countries around the world and whether I felt any pressure from these targets. I responded to the media by saying, ‘Yeh Modi hai, yaha kisi ka dabaav nahi chalta hai’,” PM Modi said while addressing the fourth Global Renewable Energy Investors Meet in Gujarat’s Gandhinagar.
It may be recalled that the Opposition has time and again alleged that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government led by PM Narendra Modi in its third term has become “weak” as the BJP failed to secure a majority in the Lok Sabha Elections 2024 on its own.
The Opposition has been alleging that the BJP 3.0 is running on “crutches” of the Nitish Kumar-led Janata Dal United (JDU) and the Chandrababu Naidu’s Telugu Desam Party (TDP) who have played the role of kingmakers in the NDA government after the BJP fell short of the majority mark on June 4.
The Opposition’s claims come as the Centre sent the Waqf Board Bill in the Parliament to the Joint Parliamentary Committee for wider discussion and consideration. Since June 9, when Prime Minister Modi was sworn in for the post for the third consecutive term, the government also rolled back the lateral entry scheme of the UPSC.
Prime Minister Modi said green future and net zero are India’s commitments and the country is “worried about the future of humanity”.” Our goal is not just to reach the top but also to sustain at the top. India knows its energy needs and requirements to become a developed nation by 2047. We also know that we do not have our own oil and gas reserves… So we decided to build our future on solar, wind, nuclear and hydro powers…,” PM Modi added.
