On Saturday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi criticized the Congress for using the state as “an ATM” to fill its coffers and asked the people of Karnataka to vote for the Bharatiya Janata Party to assist the state escape what he termed the “politics of manipulation.”
The prime minister reiterated his call for a “double-engine administration” and asked the populace to give the party a complete majority in order to assure rapid progress.
“Opportunistic and self-serving coalition administrations have ruled Karnataka for a considerable amount of time. Such governments have caused losses for Karnataka. Thus, a stable administration and the entire support of the BJP are required for Karnataka’s rapid growth, according to Modi, who made the statement during a rally in Davengere to celebrate the end of the BJP’s Vijay Sankalpa Yatre.
Karnataka’s assembly elections are scheduled for May.
“Dirty politics has plagued our nation for a long time. The politics of accusations and assigning blame were in vogue at the time. But the BJP has changed the “politics of manipulation” in the nation into the “politics of performance” since taking office, he said.
“Would Karnataka be in poor condition or not when no one obtains a complete majority? Do you favor a powerful and stable government? He posed the following question to the large crowd present: “Do you want a government with a complete majority or not?
The first task should be to quickly advance Karnataka out of the politics of manipulation, the Prime Minister said.
When the PM asked the populace whether they wanted him to serve the state, they said, “You will have to ensure BJP win and put in its powerful administration if I have to serve you and do anything for you.”
On specially constructed trucks, or “rathas,” the party began its Vijaya Sankalpa Yatres earlier this month from four different directions throughout the State, covering all 224 Assembly districts.
The PM also outlined a number of recent initiatives for state development that he has started.
“Our administration runs on two engines, day and night. It takes care of and works for the underprivileged, from offering free rations to giving free health care, he added.
Before to state elections, the BJP often employed their “double-engine government” theme, in which the party holds both the federal government and state governments.
In his speech, Modi also urged the populace to refrain from giving the Congress a chance “to play their game.”
“Can we believe Congress, which makes empty promises? He said that the party’s leaders were roving the state “with a bag of false assurances,” asking if they should be allowed to enter Karnataka or should be expelled.
The Prime Minister made this comment in response to the four election pledges made by the Congress: stipends for jobless youth, 2,000 for female household heads, 200 free power units, and free 10 kg of rice.
He said that while the party had made such pledges in Himachal Pradesh before to the election, they were not included in the recently released state budget.
The opposition party has been chanting, “Modi teri kabr khudegi (Modi your grave will be excavated),” the prime minister said. They are unaware that the people of Karnataka are chanting, “Modi, your lotus will blossom,” he said.
The lotus is the BJP’s election emblem.
At the event, in addition to several Karnataka ministers, were Karnataka chief minister Basavaraj Bommai, seasoned BJP leader BS Yediyurappa, BJP state president Nalin Kumar Kateel, Union minister Pralhad Joshi, and Union ministers of state Shobha Karandlaje, Rajeev Chandrasekhar, and A Narayanaswamy.
The PM performed a roadshow before to his address, during which a guy attempted to rush through the police barrier and reach him.
A Davengere police officer said that the individual has been brought into prison despite the fact that the special protection squad was successful in stopping him.
The Prime Minister opened the Sri Madhusudan Sai Institute of Medical Sciences and Research earlier in the day (SMSIMSR).
He criticized the opposition parties there for “playing a game” with languages in order to achieve political advantage.
“The language of Kannada is thriving. It is a language that makes the nation more proud. The previous administrations did not make any efforts to provide technical, engineering, and medical education in Kannada, according to Modi.
In contrast to these political parties, he continued, “our government, which works for the welfare of the poor, has given an option of medical education in Indian languages, including Kannada. These political parties did not want the sons and daughters from villages, poor, and backward-class families to become doctors or engineers.
The 13.71-km (mile) metro route between Whitefield and Krishnarajapura (KR Puram), which was constructed for over 4,000 crore, was also opened by the PM.
Together with CM Bommai and representatives of the Bengaluru Metro Rail Company Limited, Modi also rode the metro (BMRCL).
