![INDIA Bloc's One Year-One PM Formula Will Destroy Country: PM Modi India oi-Saumya Joshi | Updated: Wednesday, April 24, 2024, 19:28 [IST] Here's What PM Modi Said: PM Modi's Remarks Ahead of Lok Sabha Election 2024 Prime Minister Narendra Modi alleged that the Congress party dismissed claims made in its manifesto regarding wealth redistribution. Modi criticised Congress for purportedly advocating religion-based reservation, which he claimed was driven by Congress's intention to redistribute quotas from Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), and Other Backward Classes (OBCs) to preferred vote banks. Modi cited instances in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka where Congress allegedly attempted to implement religion-based or altered caste-based reservations, suggesting this as evidence of Congress's motives, as reported by Hindustan Times. According to Modi, Congress's manifesto includes proposals for redistributing wealth, implying that Congress would seize assets such as cars, motorcycles, and houses from individuals deemed to possess excess and distribute them among favoured individuals. Modi accused Congress of planning intrusive investigations into personal assets, including jewellery, and even hinted at seizing traditional jewellery like mangalsutras worn by married women. Modi highlighted a proposal by a Congress leader advocating for an inheritance tax, which he characterized as an attempt to seize half of the property inherited from grandparents and parents. Modi referenced historical support for an inheritance tax within Congress, citing a 2011 incident where a Congress minister allegedly supported the tax during a Planning Commission meeting, as per media reports. Modi dismissed Congress's attempt to distance itself from certain statements, asserting that the party had previously shown support for such measures, including the inheritance tax proposal.](https://www.oneindia.com/img/2024/04/pmmodi-b-1713966613.jpg)
