PM Narendra Modi Interview: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given an interview to ANI before the first phase of voting for the Lok Sabha elections. In the interview, the Prime Minister has openly talked about many issues. He said that if we compare in any field, there would be no lack in our efforts. We fought Covid for two years, yet whether it is speed, scale or all-round development, we have failed on every parameter. In the interview, PM Modi accused the opposition parties of spreading lies on the electoral bond scheme. He said the objective of the electoral bond scheme was to curb black money in elections.
everyone praised it
In the interview, on the allegations regarding electoral bonds, PM Modi said that the issue of black money has been going on in the country for a long time. All parties talk about this, money has to be taken from people for parties, in such a situation the thought came to my mind that how to do such work which will free us from black money. When electoral bonds came, everyone praised them, now they are doing so.
Electoral bond was introduced to get rid of the problems
PM Modi said in the interview, first we abolished Rs 1,000 and Rs 2,000 notes because we had to eliminate black money. Therefore, we reduced the cash limit of earlier Rs 20 thousand to Rs 2.5 thousand. Now when the question came about taking money through cheque, the businessmen said that brother, if we give money to such opposition then the government will come to know. BJP itself has faced this, because our rule was that we used to take money through cheque. To get rid of all these problems, electoral bonds were introduced so that the money trail could be traced. My concern is that I never say there are no shortcomings in decision making. In making decisions, we learn and improve. There is a lot of scope for improvement in this also. But today we have completely pushed the country towards black money, that is why I say that everyone will regret it.
‘Looking for excuses for defeat’
On the government’s control over central agencies, PM Narendra Modi said that our government did not make even a single law for ED and CBI. We even reformed the Election Commission. Earlier the Prime Minister used to sign a file and the Election Commission was formed, now we also keep a leader of the opposition. During his time, there were such Election Commissioners who became Rajya Sabha members from their party. They look for excuses for defeat, sometimes they will talk about EVMs and also about the Election Commission.
