PM Modi Parliament News | Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke about the Kumbh, but did not pay tribute to those killed in the January 29 stampede at the gathering, Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi said today. Addressing the media after the Prime Minister's speech in Lok Sabha, during which he thanked the people of Uttar Pradesh for their support in organising the mega gathering in Prayagraj, Mr Gandhi said, "I wanted to support what the Prime Minister (Modi) said. Kumbh is our tradition, history and culture. Our only complaint is that the Prime Minister did not pay tribute to those who died in Kumbh."

This is new India."
