Modi hits back at PM on the inaugration of hospital run by Muslims

Modi also attacked the PM and the Congress on the issue of history.

He charged that Sardar Patel was given the Bharat Ratna 41 years after his death while Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi were given the award when they were alive.  

He also alleged that the First War of Independence which took place in 1857- “and in which Hindus and Muslims fought together”- is called a Mutiny in Congress' ideology.  

The freedom fighters incarcerated in the Cellular jail of Andaman and Nicobar Islands are now forgotten, he said.  

“Who has done this work of making people forget history?” he said.
