PM's I-Day speech uninspiring, failed to address important issues facing nation, claims opposition

NEW DELHI: Opposition leaders on Thursday slammed Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his Independence Day speech, alleging that it failed to unite and inspire people or address important issues faced by the nation.

Communist Party of India General Secretary D Raja said the prime minister's speech from the ramparts of the Red Fort on India's 78th Independence Day did not place any issue before the nation to unite and inspire people.

"Whatever he spoke is in line with the sinister, divisive agenda of RSS," Raja told PTI.
