Bhopal: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday slammed Congress for dismissing all its mistakes in last 70 years with the attitude of “hua to hua (It happened, so what)”, citing the recent comment by party leader Sam Pitroda.
Addressing an election meeting in Khandwa district’s Chingabamarkhan, Mr Modi said that the Congress has developed a tendency of treating its mistakes committed in the last 70 years with “hua to hua” mindset, which has been reflected in the insensitive comment of a party leader (Mr Pitroda) on anti-Sikh riots of 1984.
“Bhopal gas tragedy of December, 2, 1984 had claimed thousands of lives. But Anderson (boss of Union Carbide) was allowed to flee the country in a government plane. If people here will ask why Anderson was permitted to escape, then Congress will say, ‘hua to hua’,” he said.
