Over the next five years, the Bharatiya Janata Party is going to change the fate and the image of Purvanchal, or eastern Uttar Pradesh, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Thursday, addressing four rallies in the region.
He accused the Samajwadi Party (SP) and the Congress for allying with south Indian forces who hurl insults at the people of U.P. “In these polls, India has two model. On one side, it’s Modi, the BJP and the NDA whose path is santushtikaran (satisfaction). On the other side, it is the SP, Congress and the ghamandiya (arrogant) alliance; their path is tushtikaran (appeasement). The playbook of the SP and the Congress is dangerous. They seek votes here and while in south India, when their partners use absurd and abusive language for the people of U.P. and Sanatana Dharma, they remain silent,” the Prime Minister alleged, speaking in Janupur.
Mr. Modi accused the Opposition parties of spreading false information about the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA). “The people of the country now know that by doing vote bank politics and making Hindus and Muslims fight, they let the nation burn in a communal fire for decades,” he said.
