Nearly a month after Union minister M Venkaiah Naidu hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi as ‘God’s gift to India’, his Cabinet colleague Radha Mohan Singh sang similar paeans on Monday.
While addressing a gathering of farmers organised by the BJP’s Kisan Cell at the Constitution Club here, Agriculture Minister Radha Mohan Singh said: “After Independence, no government has come to power that worries so much about the future of the country. In a way, to the people of the country, the Modi government and the prime minister are god’s gift.”
Moving a political resolution at the BJP conclave on March 21, Naidu had observed that Modi was “god’s gift for India” and a “messiah of the poor” which was not very palatable to senior leaders in the party.
