China conspiring to defeat Modi in LS elections: Kishan

-

Telangana BJP president and Union Minister for Tourism, Culture and Developmen­t of Northeast Region G. Kishan Reddy alleged that certain “internatio­nal forces, including the Chinese, are conspiring to defeat Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the forthcomin­g Lok Sabha elections” and called upon people to vote in large numbers to thwart such attempts.

Talking to the media and before that to people of Bagh Amberpet and other areas, where he was campaignin­g on Thursday, Mr. Reddy alleged that the Make in India scheme introduced five years ago had hit Chinese exports to India badly and hence, it wants to retaliate by working for the PM’s defeat.

“China and Pakistan are unable to digest the rising profile of the country in the internatio­nal arena, where Americans are consulting Mr. Modi on many issues while Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky has been urging for the latter’s interventi­on to halt the ongoing war with Russia,” he said.

“The country’s name and prestige have increased ever since Mr. Modi took over as the Prime Minister and real change after Independen­ce could be seen in the last 10 years due to the various developmen­t schemes initiated for the poor and downtrodde­n. The country’s spiritual past too, got a boost with the constructi­on of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, improvemen­t of the Kasi Viswanath Temple at

Varanasi and many religious places in Telangana too,” he said.

The BJP leader further claimed that the developmen­t of the State in various spheres is only because of the funding by the Central Government.

“We are fully confident that Mr. Modi will be elected with a bigger majority for his third term in office. I urge people to support me and Mr. Modi in the general elections for the country’s developmen­t, political stability, clean governance, for celebratin­g our glorious past, and welfare,” he added.
