NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said a "fake narrative can persist only for a limited period of time" while referring to the recently released film ' The Sabarmati Report ' which is based on the burning of some coaches of Sabarmati Express near Godhra railway station in 2002. The incident had sparked widespread riots in Gujarat, claiming numerous lives and altering the socio-political landscape.
Modi, known for his active engagement on social media, took to X and commended the film for bringing the truth to light and said, "It is good that this truth is coming out, and that too in a way common people can see it."
His statement was seen not just as a nod to the film but a broader commentary on truth prevailing over time.
Modi's words resonated with many who had followed the aftermath of the Godhra tragedy. The incident was a subject of intense debate, with various narratives floating around regarding the cause and the subsequent events.
His post ignited a flurry of reactions online, with supporters lauding his transparency and critics questioning the timing and motives behind his endorsement.
The film seeks to provide an in-depth look into the investigations, political undercurrents and human stories intertwined with this tragic event. It aims to challenge the narratives that have formed over the years, offering instead a narrative pieced together from court documents, testimonies and media reports.
The film's release and Modi's praise have reopened discussions on historical accountability, the power of cinema in shaping public memory, and the role of political figures in public discourse.
Modi reacted to X user Alok Bhatt's post in which he recommended the film as a must watch, saying the makers had done a commendable job, bringing out the "important truth of one of the most shameful events in our recent history".
