A 14-year-old tweet by Prime Minister Narendra Modi has gone viral on social media after Tahawwur Rana, a key accused in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks, was extradited from the United States and brought to Delhi on Thursday evening.
The resurfaced post, dating back to 2011 when Modi was Gujarat Chief Minister, slammed the then Congress-led UPA government over what he called a “major foreign policy setback” after a US court cleared Rana of direct involvement in the Mumbai attacks that left 166 people dead.
“US declaring Tahawwur Rana innocent in Mumbai attack has disgraced the sovereignty of India & it is a major foreign policy setback,” PM Modi had posted on X (formerly Twitter).
Now, with Rana finally in custody of Indian officials, social media has erupted with praise for PM Modi’s persistence. Several X users have flooded the platform with the phrase “Modi hai toh mumkin hai (If there’s Modi, it’s possible)”.
“A leader who walks the talk. Captain my captain,” one user wrote, while another added, “You did it sir!! Kudos and thank you!”
