Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday renewed his attack on Opposition leaders, invoking his recent “dimagi Naxal” remark while addressing students and faculty at the centenary celebrations of Shri Ram College of Commerce (SRCC) in Delhi.

Drawing an analogy with homeopathic treatment, the Prime Minister said his remarks from the Red Fort had triggered reactions that, according to him, revealed the identity and thinking of those he had targeted.

Referring to his earlier Independence Day address, PM Modi said he had used the expression as a “homeopathic pill”. He compared the political reaction to the principle of homeopathic treatment, where symptoms may initially intensify before improvement.

According to the Prime Minister, his remarks had prompted those fitting his description to respond publicly, making their positions clearer to the people.

Message To India's Youth

The Prime Minister's address at SRCC was largely focused on young Indians and the country's future. Speaking to students, he encouraged them to think about the challenges India had overcome while working towards the goal of becoming a developed nation.

PM Modi said it was important for the younger generation to understand that India's progress and achievements had not come easily. He referred to the scale and complexity of governing a country with a population of 140 crore people and asked students to compare the present with challenges faced in previous years.

He also criticised earlier governments over their handling of major national and global crises.

References To Kedarnath Disaster And Banking Crisis

Recalling the devastating Kedarnath floods of 2013, PM Modi said the disaster had exposed what he described as the inability of the government at the time to respond effectively to a large-scale emergency.

He also referred to the global financial crisis of 2008, accusing the previous government of failing to address problems in India's banking sector decisively.

The Prime Minister alleged that instead of confronting the banking crisis directly, the government had allowed the problems to persist for years, pushing the country's banking system towards a difficult situation.

The remarks are part of PM Modi's broader outreach to young voters and students, particularly Generation Z, as he seeks to highlight his government's record while contrasting it with the performance of previous administrations.

His “dimagi Naxal” comment, first made during his recent Independence Day speech from the Red Fort, has drawn sharp political reactions and added a new phrase to the ongoing war of words between the ruling BJP and the Opposition.
