Prime Minister Narendra Modi
Slamming the Congress government in Chhattisgarh’s Raigarh, PM Modi said that the “mineral wealth of the state is being used as Congress’ ATM”. “The mineral wealth of Chhattisgarh is being used as Congress’ ATM. False propaganda and rampant corruption are the hallmarks of the Congress government in Chhattisgarh,” PM said.
PM Modi further mentioned that he would not have to make extra efforts to remove the poverty from the country if Congress had fulfilled its guarantee of removing the same.
“Congress gave a guarantee of empowering the poor of the country. If Congress had fulfilled its guarantee, to aaj Modi ko itni mehnat nahi karni padti.Modi had guaranteed that he would empower the poor of the country and today you are seeing the results. In just 5 years, 13.5 crore people in the country have come out of poverty. This happened because the BJP government made schemes in the interest of the poor,” PM Modi said.
“Congress government in Chhattisgarh is lagging in development work but marching ahead on the corruption front. The government here is indulged in corruption in cow dung procurement,” he added.
While in Madhya Pradesh’s Bina, PM Modi accused the INDIA bloc of dividing the country in terms of culture while taking a dig at the Opposition, saying that there is a dearth of a leader in the alliance.
“At a time when Bharat is emerging as a world leader at global forums, some parties are trying to divide the country and its people. These people came together to form an ‘INDI’ alliance. Some people are calling it a ‘ghamndiya (arrogant) alliance’. They don’t have a leader yet and there is a lot of suspense on who would lead them going into the Lok Sabha elections next year. They are working with a hidden agenda, which is to attack India’s culture,” PM Modi said.

They are bent on destroying the ideologies, cultures and traditions that have kept the country and our people together for centuries,” the PM added.PM Modi addressed the meeting after laying the foundation for several projects worth more than Rs 50,700 crores, including the ‘Petrochemical Complex’ at Bina Refinery and ten new industrial projects across Madhya Pradesh.
