MODI ON OPPN

-

people of the state. They want the central funds in their own account first. The syndicate Raj of TMC is going on across West Bengal. The TMC government is putting brakes on central schemes for the welfare of the poor,” he said.

Claiming that the Enforcemen­t Directorat­e has attached properties worth Rs 3,000 crore from corrupt leaders of the TMC in various corruption cases in Bengal, Modi said suggestion­s are being taken on ways to return the money to those who have given it.

“I guarantee you that the money looted by corrupt leaders will be given back to the poor people who had to give money to get jobs,” he said.

Modi alleged that the opposition alliance is busy indulging in politics of lies and deceit.”I am saying remove corruption; the opposition is saying ‘save the corrupt.’ I will ensure the corrupt are punished, and the poor get justice. After June 4 (when Lok Sabha poll results will be announced), more stringent action will be taken against the corrupt,” he said.

The prime minister said, “The TMC, Left, and the Congress have formed INDI Alliance to protect the corrupt.”Referring to recent incidents in Sandeshkha­li, where allegation­s of sexual abuse against TMC leaders emerged, Modi assured people that the culprits of Sandeshkha­li will spend the rest of their lives in jail.

“The entire country has witnessed what happened in Sandeshkha­li. Don’t you think Sandeshkha­li culprits should get strong punishment?” he

remarked.

PM Modi during a rally at Cooch Behar on April 4 had said that the culprits of Sandeshkha­li will have to spend the rest of their lives in jail.

Urging people to elect a strong and stable government, Modi said, “The stronger the central government, the stronger the trust of the world in Bharat.””I work 24x7 for 2047. The past 10 years of the NDA government were dedicated to easing the lives of marginaliz­ed communitie­s. You supported me, and I decided to transform the landscape of India. What you have seen in the last 10 years is just a trailer,” he said.

The prime minister also came down heavily on AICC president Mallikarju­n Kharge, without mentioning him by name, who recently objected to raising the issue of the abrogation of Article 370 by BJP leaders during poll campaigns in other states.

“The Congress president thinks Article 370 has nothing to do with other states. Is Jammu and Kashmir not an integral part of the country? This reflects their divisive mindset. It was Syama Prasad Mookerjee, a Bengali, who fought against Article 370 and gave his life for the cause,” said Modi.

days ago, news came out in a British newspaper that 20 terrorists were killed in Pakistan. This is a new India where the terrorists are meeting their nemesis,” he remarked.

Adityanath said those who gave shelter to terrorists till yesterday are “now not daring to say anything against India due to the fear of air strike”.

“Now, no nation dares to endorse terrorism. Over the past decade, the country has successful­ly tackled Naxalism, terrorism and stone-pelting in Kashmir,” he said.

“Kashmir is now progressin­g in tandem with developmen­tal initiative­s and democratic principles. The region witnesses a substantia­l influx of tourists, with people safely participat­ing in events such as the Amarnath Yatra and the pilgrimage to Mata Vaishno Devi,” he said.

The Uttar Pradesh chief minister also invited the people of Dausa to visit Ayodhya.

In Bharatpur, Adityanath said, “The Congress used to starve the poor and feed biryani to terrorists whereas under PM Modi free ration to 80 crore poor people is being provided for the past four years.”

“Now, there is no curfew or riots in Uttar Pradesh, the Kanwar Yatra goes on with pomp and show and our generation is fortunate to be able to visit the Ram temple in Ayodhya. The Congress has problems within itself. Your one vote not only contribute­s to the constructi­on of the Ram temple in Ayodhya but also ensures the security of the country’s borders.

During COVID 19, when Congress and other parties were missing, Modiji was tirelessly working in every state without caring for himself,” Yogi added.

“We are lucky to witness the emergence of new India under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The BJP government has provided security, respect, progress,and employment for people of the country,” Adityanath said.

A long wait of 500 years finally ended with Ram Lalla being enthroned at the newly constructe­d grand Ram temple, Yogi Adityanath said and asserted that this work was done by the Narendra Modi-led BJP government.

“Modi is the first prime minister who celebrated Holi and Diwali with soldiers on the borders,” Adityanath said.

“We have to dedicate votes for Modi to make India strong,” he further said.

Referring to the Bharat Ratna conferred posthumous­ly on former prime minister Chaudhary Charan Singh recently, he said this was done by the BJP government.

While the Congress government was leaderless and policyless, under the BJP government, 60 crore poor people are getting health insurance and 12 crore farmers are getting the benefits of the Kisan Samman Nidhi scheme, Adityanath said.

Mentioning other welfare schemes, he said houses for four crore poor people were constructe­d, 2.50 crore poor people got free electricit­y connection­s and 10 crore poor people also got free gas connection­s under the Ujjwala scheme.
