This is PM Narendra Modi’s first public meeting in the Congress-ruled state after the announcement of the poll schedule.
KANKER: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday made a big promise to crores of voters in Chhattisgarh, promising more houses for the poor and underprivileged if his party BJP wins the upcoming assembly elections in the Congress-ruled state. Addressing an election rally in Kanker town of poll-bound Chhattisgarh, PM Modi attacked the incumbent Congress government while promising that more houses would be built under PM Awas Yojna if his party comes to power.
The PM also made a blistering attack on the ruling party, saying ”Congress & development cannot exist together.” “Congress filled its coffers with black money by committing scams worth lakhs of crores in the Central Government. Congress has not been in the central government for 10 years now, therefore the coffers of Congress getting empty. Wherever Congress is in power in the state, it is looting the people there…” the PM said. In a veiled attack on the Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP government in Delhi, the PM said, ”Those involved neck-deep in corruption will not be spared.”
PM Modi, however, expressed confidence that there is a huge wave in support of the BJP which will bring the saffron party to power in the state.
“A huge support for BJP can be seen in Kanker…BJP’s mission is to strengthen Chhattisgarh’s identity. BJP’s mission protect the rights of tribals & the backward. BJP’s mission is to bring Chhattisgarh into the top states of the country. Congress & development cannot exist together…” PM Modi said while addressing BJP supporters here.
The PM also gave a sort of guarantee to the voters that all promises being made by the BJP will be fulfilled if it wins the assembly elections here. “Modi’s guarantee means a guarantee of fulfilment of every guarantee…We have completed the tasks which seemed impossible nine years ago. Modi has also ensured reservations for women in the Lok Sabha and Assembly…,” PM Modi said in his speech.
This is PM Narendra Modi’s first public meeting in the Congress-ruled state after the announcement of the poll schedule. The PM’s rally is being held in Kanker – a Naxalite-hit district – that will go to the polls in the first phase of two-phased polls in the state.
The Prime Minister arrived at the Raipur airport in an Indian Air Force aircraft around 12.55 p.m. and then left for Kanker in a helicopter to address the rally.
