'Why is the PM still running away?' Jairam Ramesh hits at PM for not holding press meet on 11 years of Modi govt
Congress MP and party General Secretary in charge of Communications, Jairam Ramesh , attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday for not holding a press conference to mark the completion of his 11 years in office . In a post on X, Ramesh said that Congress challenged PM Narendra Modi for an unscripted press conference, but instead, BJP President JP Nadda will be addressing the press conference. The post reads, "Yesterday we had challenged the PM to have his first-ever unscripted, undoctored press conference on the completion of his 11 years in office. Today, the BJP President J. P. Nadda has been fielded to meet the press at 12 noon to highlight the 11 year millstone (not milestone)." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Central Point: What Is Your Home Worth? Take a Look! Smartfinancetips Learn More Questioning PM Modi and accusing him of 'running away,' he asked if he is taking time to prepare questions and answers or if the Bharat Mandapam is not ready yet. "Why is the Prime Minister still running away? Or is it taking time to prepare the questions and answers and find suitable persons to 'query' him in a servile manner? Or is Bharat Mandapam not fully ready?" Ramesh wrote. Live Events On Sunday, Jairam Ramesh wrote on X, "Every head of government in the world has a freewheeling press conference now and then. Ours has had none for 11 years. Mr. Narendra Modi produced, directed, and scripted his media interactions last year during the election campaign - during one of which he famously claimed to be non-biological. But he has NEVER EVER had the courage to have an undoctored press meet. This is in total contrast to all his predecessors." "His favourite hate used to have spontaneous press meets almost every other month where he would be ruthlessly questioned and he would answer patiently. That is one way our democratic foundations got established," he added. Sharing a social media post, the BJP informed that the party's National President, JP Nadda, will address a press conference on June 9 at the BJP Headquarters in New Delhi to mark the completion of 11 years of the Modi Government. "BJP National President Shri JP Nadda will address a press conference on the completion of 11 years of the Modi Government at BJP Headquarters in New Delhi on 9th June 2025," the X post read.
