Recalling the Quit India movement launched by Mahatma Gandhi, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said India was now speaking in one voice against corruption, dynasticism and appeasement.

Modi's apparent swipe at the Opposition came as the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will organise events across the country on Wednesday on these lines.

"Tributes to the greats who took part in the Quit India Movement. Under the leadership of Gandhi Ji, this Movement played a major role in freeing India from colonial rule," he said in a tweet.
