September 23, 2019 00:05

Prime Minister Narendra Modi mentions the K word during his address to the Indian-Americans at the NRG stadium.

He spoke of the abrogation of Article 370 and also in a jibe to Pakistan said that countries that can't take care of themselves, shouldn't worry of other countries.

Here's what he said:

>> Article 370 had kept people of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh away from progress and rights. Terrorists and separatists were using it to their advantage. Now people of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh have the same rights as every Indian. The discrimination against women and Dalits has ended

>> Both houses of Parliament debated this for hours, and it was telecast live. Even though we don't have majority in the upper house, but still both the houses cleared the motion with two-thirds majority. I request you to give a standing ovation to the lawmakers of India

>> What India is doing has troubled some people who can't even manage their own country. They have made hatred towards India the centre of their agenda. They support terror, they harbor terrorists. Not just you, the whole world knows who these people are

>> Whether it is 9/11 in America or 26/11 in Mumbai, where are its conspirators found?
