Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s aggressive election
campaign continues with a rally in Betul, Madhya Pradesh today. Speaking at the
rally the Prime Minister attacked the Congress saying that the Opposition party
has accepted that its fake promises won’t work in front of Modi’s guarantees.
“Some of the Congress leaders are sitting at home,
they don’t even feel like going out, Congress leaders don’t know what will they
say to people. Congress has accepted that its fake promises won’t work in front
of Modi’s guarantees,” said the PM.
He further said this election is to stop the hand of
Congress’s corruption and loot from touching Madhya Pradesh’s treasury.
“This election is to stop the hand of Congress’s
corruption and loot from touching Madhya Pradesh’s treasury. You (people)
should remember that Congress’s hand knows how to steal and loot. You know that
wherever Congress comes, they bring destruction,” the PM said.
The Prime Minister further said he had got a report
from the entire state of Madhya Pradesh saying that Congress has accepted
defeat in the Assembly elections.
“As November 17 approaches, Congress’s claims are
getting exposed. Today, we got a report from the entire state of Madhya Pradesh
that Congress has accepted defeat and now they’re relying on luck” he said.
PM Modi further mentioned that there is unprecedented
trust and affection for the BJP among the people of Madhya Pradesh.
“Congress never believed that abrogation of Article
370 in J-K. They never thought that the Ram temple construction will be a
reality, but we have done it,” said the PM.
PM Modi said the election campaign will conclude on
Wednesday he will be in Jharkhand to celebrate the birth anniversary of Birsa
Munda.
“This is the last set of my rallies for the Madhya
Pradesh Assembly polls because the election campaign will conclude tomorrow.
Tomorrow is the birth anniversary of Birsa Munda and Jharkhand. Therefore, I
will visit the state tomorrow,” said PM Modi.
He further said all promises made to you will be
fulfilled, this is his guarantee. The Prime Minister urged the crowd at the
public rally to go door to door and tell everyone that Modi had come here.

switched over to BJP in 2020. The BJP later formed the government with Shivraj
Singh Chouhan as the Chief Minister.
