Prime Minister Narendra Modi has accused the Congress of standing with anti-national forces and claimed that the opposition INDIA bloc was trying to weaken the country.
During an election rally in Rajasthan's Barmer, PM Modi said the Congress' thinking was anti-development and the country's border districts were deliberately deprived of development by former Congress governments. PM said, ‘congress stands with every anti-national force. It ruled for decades but there is not a single major problem of the country for which it gave a complete solution’.
PM said that while Modi is busy making India a powerful nation, the people of the INDI alliance are trying to make India weak. He also accused the congress of ignoring development work in border villages due to apprehension of the enemy using the infrastructure in case of a clash and said BJP government considers these villages as first villages of the country.
