Priority of Congress is to serve Gandhi family: PM Modi
Nov-12-2018

Prime Minister Narendra Modi in an apparent reference to the Gandhi family said that the priority of the Congress party was to serve one family. Prime Minister Modi said that for the Congress, the welfare of Chhattisgarh is not a priority. Their priority is to serve one family. Further training guns at the opposition parties, the Prime Minister said that politics on the grounds of caste, creed and gender is unacceptable. It is necessary to focus on all-round development to take India to newer heights of glory.

PM said that “our opposition still doesn’t know how to fight the BJP. We are focused on development. We went beyond the caste divisions. You can witness development wherever you go in Chhattisgarh”. Further, he said that recently, the Congress party released its 36-point manifesto for Chhattisgarh. At the release of the manifesto, ‘Naamdaar’ was referred to as ‘Sir’ 150 times. It means for them the importance of Chhattisgarh is lesser than ‘Naamdaar’ (Rahul Gandhi).

Prime Minister Modi said that it is the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) which can ensure that the state is free of Naxals. The Prime Minister’s rally comes amid polling for the first phase of the Chhattisgarh Assembly elections in 18 constituencies, which are in high-security zones in Bastar region. The first phase of Assembly elections began on Monday amid tight security. Of 18 seats going to polls, 12 seats are reserved for the Scheduled Tribes, while one is reserved for the Scheduled Caste. The polling for remaining 72 seats will be held on November 20. The counting of votes will take place on December 11.
