PM Modi in Mathurapur, West Bengal
PM addresses voters in Chandauli- He said voters are polling for BJP because people feel our party offers a strong and stable government.
- Remember the period before 2014: When there were scandals in the days to come. When the country was on the streets against corruption, bomb blasts, the rate of inflation was at peak and growth rate was low. A lot has changed in these five years.
“It Is A NDA Wave Across Uttar Pradesh,” Says PM Modi- We saw hooliganism by Trinamool Congress workers again during Bhai Amit Shah's roadshow in Kolkata.
- They vandalized Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar's statue.
- We are committed to Vidyasagar's vision and will install his grand statue at the same spot.
- I had thought the way Mamata didi is targeting UP-Bihar Purvanchal people, calling them "outsiders" for her politics, Behen Mayawati will surely slam Mamata didi, but this did not happen.
- Thoughts and ideals of the great Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar reverberate across India. They have shaped millions of Indians. By destroying the Vidyasagar statue, TMC shows their disgusting mentality. The centre will build a statue at the same place where TMC destroyed it.
