JALANDHAR: At his first physical election rally ahead of the Punjab polls in Jalandhar on Monday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi expanded on the party slogan “Nawan Punjab, Bhajpa de naal” (new Punjab with BJP), and made a pitch for a new Punjab that would be free of debt, corruption, mafia and drugs and full of opportunities for everybody. Referring to the “unprecedented enthusiasm for change” in Punjab, he said that he was sure that Punjab would have a BJP-led alliance government.
Striving to strike a chord with the people, he said, “Punjab has given me so much that whatever I do to repay it adds to my resolve to do more.”
