Bihar Governor Arif Mohammad Khan on Saturday praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi saying that he is a man of determination, resolve, and the one who never shows that he is in a hurry.
While speaking at the launch of the book, “Revolutionary Raj: Narendra Modi’s 25 Years", written by journalist-author Alok Mehta, at the Constitution Club of India in New Delhi, Khan said that he realised that PM Modi was “being maligned very unfairly", reported news agency PTI.
“He is the most misunderstood person who is being maligned very unfairly. And then after four months, my view totally changed about this situation. He is undoubtedly a man of determination, a man of resolve," the Governor added.
Khan also credited the Prime Minister for the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Act, 2019, that criminalises the practice of “triple talaq" in India.
“I hope, and I feel confident that after 50 years, people not only in this country, but everywhere else also will recognise what a wonderful and great job Shri Narendra Modi has done. Because everywhere else in the world, triple talaq is not considered lawful. In India, it was done for the first time in 2019," Khan said.
The book, which carries a foreword by Union Home Minister Amit Shah, traces Narendra Modi’s 25-year political journey from Chief Minister of Gujarat to Prime Minister of India.
The event was attended by Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri, Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman Harivansh Narayan Singh, former Finance Commission Chairman N. K. Singh, and former Union minister K. J. Alphons, among others.
