My govt's only religion is India first, PM tells House

NEW DELHI: Faced with criticism that he was soft on Hindutva hardliners, PM Narendra Modi on Friday stressed that as the head of the government, he was obligated to ensure the primacy of the Constitution and rein in those making provocative communal statement.

"This country can only be run in accordance with the Constitution. It is the expression of the ethos the country has followed for thousands of years, and reflects hopes and aspirations of the common man. India cannot be governed by disregarding its tenets. No one can take law into his hands and nobody can discriminate against anyone on grounds of faith. Those making irresponsible statements should remember that being the head of the government, it is my responsibility to determine how it functions," Modi said.

Replying to a debate on the motion of thanks on the President's address in Lok Sabha, he reiterated, "I have repeatedly said my government has only one religion, India first. It treats the Constitution as its sole scripture. It worships only the cause of the welfare of all 1.25 billion citizens. "
