Prayagraj: Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed election meetings in Prayagraj and Amethi on Thursday in view of the fifth phase of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections. During this, he strongly attacked the opposition parties including the Samajwadi Party. Taking a jibe at Akhilesh Yadav’s visit to Noida as Chief Minister, the PM said, “Superstitious leaders who do not go to Noida, Bijnor cannot do good to the poor.”
The Prime Minister said, “‘Families’ are so far away from the ground reality that they do not see what is happening on the ground… They want to increase the power of their family by coming to power and rule you (people) like kings.” Huh. Our strength is not Bahubali/Mafia, but the people of UP.”
He said, “February 24 is an important day in my life as ‘Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi’ completes 3 years today. In 2019 people used to spread rumours, said that Modi will stop this scheme after elections are over, we won after elections and the scheme continued. The farmers of Amethi got Rs 450 crore.”
Attack on opposition regarding vaccination
The Prime Minister said, “When vaccination started, Modi did not run for vaccination. We first vaccinated frontline workers, elderly people with comorbidities. If ‘Family Vaastis’ were in power, they would first break all lines to get vaccinated. Even my mother is waiting for her turn for the third dose.”
He said, “Vote bank politics and ‘parivarwadis’ practiced by many political parties have put the country at a disadvantage. Even if these leaders go against the politics of national interest, they do not hesitate. They insult our army and police forces, only then their vote bank flourishes.”
SP attacked over Ahmedabad blast case
Speaking on the verdict in the 2008 Ahmedabad chain blasts case, PM Modi said, “Even though the enemies of humanity have been given death sentence, these parties did not dare to welcome the verdict out of fear of vote bank. Do such people deserve to come to power?”
He said, ‘Families’ have a definite formula to govern; They make ministers from different states according to their vote bank who have no authority. These parties give authority outside the bounds of the Constitution to their relatives, ie ‘Super Ministers’, who have real power.”
also attacked about jobs
The PM said, “Earlier governments had different criteria for unemployment of youth. Employment was given on the basis of context, casteism and corruption. In 10 years, they (SP and BSP) could provide only 2 lakh government jobs.”
He said, “Earlier, the syllabus of PCS exam in Uttar Pradesh was different from that of UPSC. Our government understood your problem and today the syllabus of UP PCS and UPSC is the same. Now with the same hard work youth can give both the exams.
Those who hate the name Prayagraj, what development will they do?
The PM further said, “Those who hate the name Prayagraj, what development work will they do for this city? BJP and its allies have worked continuously for 5 years in Prayagraj. The double engine government of BJP has changed the politics of the country as well as of UP.
He said, “Family parties have started misusing EVMs after the fourth phase of polling. Those who wait for exit polls, I would ask them not to do so. As soon as they start blaming EVMs, understand that the family party game is over.”
