Varanasi, March 5 : Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday slammed the opposition parties and said that blind opposition, constant opposition, extreme despair and negativity has become the political ideology of dynastic politicians and after corona it is being experienced again during the Ukraine crisis. Addressing an election rally in Varanasi rural, Modi, who started his speech with ‘Har Har Mahadev’ said, “The third decade of the 21st century has brought new challenges and unprecedented crises for the entire world, but India has decided that we will turn this unprecedented crisis and challenges into opport ty. And this is not only my resolve, but it is the resolve of 130 crore citizens of India.” He said, “Our villages have power when crisis comes everyone buries his differences and stands tedly. But when a challenge comes for the country these dynastic politicians search their political interest in it. This we saw during corona and we are experiencing the same during the Ukraine crisis. Blind opposition, constant opposition, extreme despair and negativity has become their political ideology.” Modi said UP has witnessed such an election after decades where a government is seeking votes on the basis of its works. “This is my last election meeting. UP would have not witnessed such an election in decades. An election in which the government is seeking blessings of the public on the basis of its work, on the basis of its honest image, on the basis of impartial development and improved law and order,” he said. He said the people of UP have completely rejected dynastic politicians who promoted hooliganism, corruption, nepotism and land grabbing. “Today on one hand there is double benefit of the double engine from which every resident of UP is benefitting and on the other there are hollow promises of the dynastic politicians which can never be fulfilled,” he said. The PM said India is providing free ration to more than 80 crore poor, Dalit, backward and tribal families from the last two years. “The entire world is shocked to see this work. I am happy that my poor is happy and my poor mother is blessing me. We started the Swachh Bharat Mission and constructed more than 10 crore toilets. Sisters of poor, Dalit and backward families in villages benefitted from it most. Those who live in palaces don’t know how many problems a poor mother has to face if there is no toilet in the house,” he said. He said that dynastic politicians have problems with the ‘Vocal for Local’ campaign. “Dynastic politicians get annoyed even from ‘Vocal for Local’. Today Yoga and Ayurveda has created a buzz in the entire world, but dynastic politicians avoid taking the name of Yoga. Congress is a step ahead of them. They forgot Khadi which once used to be the identity of Congress,” he said. Modi said, “Have you ever heard our opponents saying buy products made in our country, to use those products and to promote products made in the country? If they would have been your friends they would have said to sell the products made by you or not? But they keep mum.” He said after the March 10 campaign to provide ‘pucca houses’ to the poor will be intensified, work of providing gas cylinders to the poor will be accelerated and employment will be given speedily. The PM said, “In this election wherever I went, in every corner of India mother and sisters have blessed me in a manner they have become my protective shield. Security and safety of our mothers and sisters has been the top priority of the double engine government and it will remain the same. Yesterday in Kashi I went out to seek blessings of the people. The scene I saw in Banaras yesterday, children, elderly, poor and rich, the manner in which they were blessing, what can be the biggest earning in life. What can be the greatest capital than that?.” AB SY 1543
