PM Modi blames Congress for creation of Pakistan
Attacking the Congress, the PM alleged that corruption was the only activity which the party does with honesty after coming to power.
Ausa (Maharashtra): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday stepped up his attack on the Congress, saying had its leaders acted wisely, Pakistan would not have been created.
Addressing a poll rally, Mr Modi also appeared to be treading sensitive ground, by asking first-time voters to dedicate their vote to those who carried out the air strike in Balakot. “Can your first vote be dedicated to those who carried out the air strike,” Mr Modi said, appealing to first-time voters.
Pakistan would not have born in 1947 had Congress leaders acted wisely in the pre-Independence era, Mr Modi said. The Congress party’s manifesto speaks the same language as that of Pakistan, he added.
Referring to National Conference leader Omar Abdullah’s remark, PM accused the Congress and its ally NCP of standing with those who want a separate Prime Minister for Jammu and Kashmir.
Hitting out at the NCP chief Sharad Pawar, Mr Modi wondered if it behoved the Maratha strongman to join forces with the parties holding such a view.
Under the BJP’s watch it is the policy of ‘New India’ that it will kill terrorists by barging into their dens, he said.
Mr Modi said the opposition parties were questioning the valour of the security forces after the Pulwama terror attack and the air strike in Balakot.
Attacking the Congress, the PM alleged that corruption was the only activity which the party does “with honesty” after coming to power.
“Aapne dekha hoga kal-parson kaise Congress ke darbariyon ke ghar se bakson main note nikli, note se vote kharidne ka ye paap inki rajnaitik sanskriti rahi hai. Ye pichhle 6 mahino se bol rahe hain ‘Chowkidaar chor hai’ lekin note kahan se nikle? Asli chor kon hai?,” PM said.
