BJP govt. created more jobs than what Cong. had promised in its manifesto, says Modi in Shivamogga

Alleging that the Congress will stall the growth of Karnataka, Prime Minister Narendra Modi appealed to the public on Sunday, May 7, to vote for the BJP for the State’s development.

Addressing a rally at Ayanur in Shivamogga district, Mr. Modi said the Congress had been engaged in assuring false guarantees to the public. “The Congress had assured 10 lakh jobs in the next five years. They had promised to create two lakh jobs in the private sector a year. However, the BJP, which came to power only three-and-a-half years ago, created more than 13 lakh jobs. Hence, I am telling you the Congress will take the State’s growth in the opposite direction,” he said.

The State Government had formulated policies to attract investors to the State. However, he said, if the Congress came to power, they would spoil all the efforts made by the BJP to attract investors.
