<p>In a fiery address at a rally in Madhya Pradesh's Dhar, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a scathing attack on the Congress party, expressing fears of a potential revival of Article 370 in Kashmir and a hindrance to the Ram temple in Ayodhya if the BJP-led NDA does not secure a commanding 400-seat majority in Parliament. PM Modi's assault on the Congress comes as Union Ministers Anurag Thakur and Smriti Irani iterated similar accusations. </p> <p>Speaking to the gathered crowd, Modi reiterated the significance of the BJP-led NDA's current parliamentary strength, underscoring its pivotal role in the abrogation of Article 370, which granted special status to Jammu and Kashmir. He warned against the Congress potentially reinstating the article and putting a "babri lock" on the the Ram temple.</p> <p>The Prime Minister stated, "It is important for the country's people to know the BJP-led NDA already has 400-plus seats in Parliament. We used this number to scrap Article 370... Modi wants 400 seats so that the Congress won't bring back Article 370 to spoil the game and put a Babri lock on the Ram temple in Ayodhya."</p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">Dhar, Madhya Pradesh "Modi needs 400 seats so that Congress does not put Babri lock on Ram Temple in Ayodhya..." says PM Modi <a href="https://t.co/mLAzcWfKe5">pic.twitter.com/mLAzcWfKe5</a></p> — IANS (@ians_india) <a href="https://twitter.com/ians_india/status/1787745136253817180?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 7, 2024</a></blockquote> <p> <script src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" async="" charset="utf-8"></script> </p> <p>The Prime Minister also recounted his recent challenges to the Congress, urging them to clarify their stance on religious-based reservations and assure the protection of existing quotas for Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and Other Backward Classes.</p> <p><strong>ALSO READ | <a href="https://ift.tt/5PrdbGn Of Violence Has No Place In Civilised Society': India Slams Canada Over Pro-Khalistan Parade</a></strong></p> <h3><span style="color: #ba372a;"><strong>BJP's Anurag Thakur, Smriti Irani Echoe Suspended Congress Leader Pramod Krishnam's Claim</strong></span></h3> <p>BJP's Anurag Thakur accused the Congress of advocating for the reconstruction of the Babri Masjid and undermining Hindu traditions, while Irani alleged that Rahul Gandhi had intentions to review the Supreme Court's verdict on the Ram Mandir.</p> <p> "Pakistan is openly supporting Congress.
