‘Nowadays my mind is preoccupied with the situation with our neighboring country’: PM Modi

Author: Web Desk

The Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi mentioned the city of Karachi while he spoke at a political rally in Gujarat’s Jamnagar city on Monday. He mentioned Karachi while talking about a healthcare scheme that was recently developed, called ‘Ayushman Bharat’.

Having realized the error he had made, PM Modi discontinued his speech and after a pause he explained that he is being constantly briefed by the top defense personnel and armed forces about the affairs with Pakistan and hence, ‘the slip of tongue’.

Saying that it was a mistake, Modi further explained that he meant to say Kochi, not Karachi.
