Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a sharp political offensive against the Congress party on November 15, 2025, following the National Democratic Alliance's (NDA) decisive victory in the Bihar elections. In a speech that has sent ripples across the political landscape, the Prime Minister coined a new acronym for the principal opposition party, signaling a hardening of the BJP's stance.
A New Political Acronym: The Birth of 'MMC'
Addressing supporters and the media, Prime Minister Modi referred to the Congress and its allies as the "Muslim League Maoist Congress (MMC)". He asserted that this so-called 'MMC' alliance had completely lost the trust and confidence of the Indian public. The Prime Minister went a step further, claiming that many leaders within the Congress party itself are disillusioned and dissatisfied with its current leadership and direction.
Modi's Critique: From EVMs to Divisive Politics
PM Modi accused senior Congress leaders of refusing to take accountability for their repeated electoral defeats. He stated that instead of introspection, these "jamanati leaders" were resorting to blaming external factors such as Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), the Election Commission of India, and the process of voter list purification for their losses.
The Prime Minister also addressed the campaign tactics in Bihar, alleging that attempts were made to fuel deep-seated caste divisions to sway voters. However, he emphasized that the people of Bihar saw through this strategy and delivered a firm verdict, firmly rejecting such divisive politics. In a significant claim, Modi alleged illegal conversions of land into Waqf properties and stated that those who opposed the Waqf Act were decisively defeated by the people in the elections.
The Internal Discontent and National Implications
Beyond the immediate electoral context, PM Modi shed light on what he described as a growing internal crisis within the Congress. He claimed that young Members of Parliament from the party feel silenced and unable to express their views freely in the Parliament. This, he suggested, is a symptom of a larger decay within the party's structure.
Connecting the Bihar result to a national trend, the Prime Minister stressed the Congress party's continuously shrinking influence, which has been evident across a series of recent state assembly elections. The NDA's performance in Bihar is seen not just as a state-level win but as a continuation of a broader political wave consolidating in favor of the ruling alliance.
