PM Modi Forgives Children Who Abused Him and His Late Mother, Calls for Compassion and Guidance
New Delhi, August 1: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has appealed for compassion and understanding toward the children who allegedly used abusive language against him and his late mother during the recent incident at Jantar Mantar, saying he has forgiven them and urging society to help guide them instead of seeking punishment.
In a video message addressed to the nation, the Prime Minister referred to the incident, saying that the country and the world had witnessed what happened at Jantar Mantar, where some "misguided children" used language that had no place in a civilized society. He said the abuse was directed not only at him but also at his late mother.
Despite the incident, Mr. Modi said he did not wish to respond with anger. Instead, he emphasized that children are capable of making mistakes and, more importantly, of learning from them.
"Bachpan mein galtiyan hoti hain, aur bachpan mein galtiyon se sudharne ka avsar bhi hota hai (Children make mistakes, and childhood is also a time to learn and improve from them)," he said.
The Prime Minister acknowledged the public outrage over the incident but urged people not to allow emotions to turn into hatred. He described the children involved as "misguided" and said it was society's responsibility to show them the right path.
Mr. Modi argued that taking the children to court, subjecting them to legal action, or humiliating them socially would not solve the problem. Instead, he appealed for forgiveness and constructive engagement.
"I want to forgive them. Society should also accept my view," he said.
Drawing an analogy, the Prime Minister remarked that when a person accidentally bites their tongue, they do not break their teeth because both belong to the same body. Similarly, he said, the children are part of the nation's family and deserve guidance rather than rejection.
Calling the incident a "cultural shock," Mr. Modi expressed concern over the language allegedly used by young girls, but stressed that the focus should remain on correcting their path rather than condemning them.
In the concluding part of his address, the Prime Minister invited the children to move forward together with the nation, encouraging them to learn from their mistakes, pursue their dreams, and contribute positively to India's future.
"I live for you. I dedicate myself to your bright future. Let us work together to take the country forward," he said, ending his message with an appeal to learn from mistakes and move ahead together.
