PM takes on opposition, says they were left dumbfounded

New Delhi, Nov 25: Prime Minister Narendra Modi hit out at the opposition by stating that the sudden action announced by the Government almost two weeks back left the opposition unprepared and they did not get the time to take care of the money hoarded by their parties. “ The opposition was left un prepared and therefore the panic”, stated the PM while addressing audience in New Delhi.

 
 "There is little criticism against the move. But those who are criticising it are saying that the government was not prepared to implement the decision. They are unhappy because they did not get the time to stash away their share of black money and now they are all nervous,” PM Narender Modi said during the Constitution Day celebration function at the Parliament House Annexe.
 
 
The Prime Minister said that the whole nation was fighting a big war against corruption and black money, and the common man has become the soldier in this war.  "The common man feels that over the last 70 years, the same Constitution and its laws and rules have been misused to drown the nation in corruption."
 
 
 "It is a big nation and a big decision. I expect from those who see bright future for the nation to help those facing difficulties so we come out victorious in this war against corruption," the Prime Minister added.
 
 Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan was also present at the function, where two books on the constitution — "Making of the Indian Constitution and an updated version of the Indian Constitution — were also released.
