Dadri lynching: Cong accuses PM of 'selective amnesia'

October 14, 2015 20:44

The Congress today launched a hard-hitting attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi accusing him of "selective amnesia" and "abdication of responsibility" in the wake of the Dadri lynching and rejected his description of the incident as "unfortunate".

"In the midst of a motivated hate campaign orchestrated by the BJP, Prime Minister Modi's statement brushing aside the Dadri tragedy as merely a 'sad incident' is extremely unfortunate and inhumane to say the least. "Modi is suffering from selective amnesia. He has forgotten that he is the Prime Minister of entire country and safety and protecting the life of 125 crore citizens of India is his responsibility," AICC communciation department in-charge Randeep Surjewala said.
