A tunnel towards new beginnings

The #AtalTunnel, inaugurated yesterday by Prime Minister @narendramodi in #Rohtang, Himachal Pradesh is a fruit of the dedication and hard work of the Borders Road Organization (BRO).
Conceived in the year 1983, it was given a shape by PM Modi to ensure that infrastructure and connectivity to border areas improve.

The estimated cost of construction of the tunnel was about Rs. 900 crores. But due to continuous delays, it's completed after spending more than 3 times i.e. 3200 crore rupees.

"Wherever #Muslims live, they don’t like to live in co-existence with others" - #AtalBihariVajpayee as PM said this in 2002 in which the Gujarat 'riots' were followed by attacks on Muslims across the state for a year. Full text of his speech👇(Contd)

As this profile says, "#Vajpayee reached a new low with the Gujarat pogrom that took place under Modi’s CMship. ..Not only did he not remove #Modi from his post; he emulated him by presenting the carnage as an understandable reaction by #Hindus." (Contd)

Vajpayee's mask of genteelness was carefully constructed to fool most of the liberal media, public & politicians, who either fell for it or used it to mask their own opportunism when aligning with him, despite knowing his commitment to #RSS' hate politics. #AtalTunnel (Contd)
