Death threat to PM Modi: Video on social media


The case was registered against a person named Mohammed Rasool Kaddare for posting a video on social media in which he threatened to kill PM Narendra Modi and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, if the Congress government comes to power, Yadgiri Police said, reported ANI.


The accused has been booked under sections 505(1)(b), 25(1)(b) of the Indian Penal Code and Arms Act at Yadgiri's Surpur police station.

Death threat to PM Modi: Selfie video

"Rasool, who made a selfie video on his mobile phone, abused Prime Minister Modi and UP CM Yogi Adityanath with unintelligible words," the police said, reported ANI.

Kaddare, police said is a resident of Rangapet in Yadgiri district and works as a labourer in Hyderabad, reported ANI.

Authorities said they have begun searches for the accused in various places, including Hyderabad.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said the opposition INDIA bloc's "new formula" to abuse him is to say he does not have a family but the people have rejected it by chanting in one voice that they belong to Modi's family, reported PTI.

Without naming Tamil Nadu Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin, son of Chief Minister M K Stalin, Modi, in his address at the BJP's rally, said the Supreme Court posed the DMK Minister "tough questions." PM Modi alleged that "insulting" the faith of crores of people is an identity of the dynasts, reported PTI.

"Dynasty parties only think about their future whereas I work for everyone's future," he asserted. While the motto of the DMK and the Congress is 'family first' for him it is 'nation first.' Therefore, the INDIA alliance has developed this new formula. "What does it mean? Does it mean that having a family means getting the licence for corruption? Does having a family mean having a licence to seize power for their family?" PM Modi asked, reported PTI.

He alleged the Congress and the DMK are steeped in corruption and dynasty. "For them, their family alone is everything. For them corruption is everything," reported PTI.

The Prime Minister welcomed the Supreme Court verdict in the JMM bribery case and said it would promote clean politics.
