“There is also a new FDI which is seen today, that is foreign destructive ideology we need to be aware of this”: PM Modi

News Desk: While speaking at the Rajya Sabha on Monday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi used the term FDI or ‘Foreign Destructive Ideology’. 

He said “There is also a new FDI which is seen today, that is foreign destructive ideology we need to be aware of this. India needs to be cautioned against deleterious influences from abroad”

He added “In the last few years, we have witnessed a new category of protesters, ‘Andolan jeevi’, who one can witness in every agitation. We need to protect this country from these Andolan Jeevi, who are actually ‘parjeevi’. They don’t have their own strength, but they join all agitations. This country is proud of Sikhs. What have the Sikhs not done for the nation?” 

Prime Minister Narendra Modi also took a dig at TMC MP Derek O’Brien. He said “I was listening to Shri Derek. Great words were being used. Freedom of Speech. Intimidation. Hounding. When I was listening to all this, I was wondering if he is talking about West Bengal. It is natural for him. This is what he sees and listens to for 24 hours. So I thought he might have mistakenly said those things here too”
