'Yeh Jitna Keechad Fekenge...': PM Modi Attacks Congress Over Corruption, Appeasement In Gujarat

Prime Minister Narendra Modi said Congress has no agenda for the future of the country except abusing Modi.

Modi said Congress created a conflict and enmity between development and heritage.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday hit out at Congress over corruption and appeasement politics and reiterated BJP's target of achieving 400 seats in the 2024 Lok Sabha Elections.

While speaking in Gujarat's Navsari, Modi said Congress has no agenda for the future of the country except abusing Modi.

He further said that the more the Congress will abuse Modi, the resolve for 400 seats for BJP in the next election will get stronger. 

"You have seen how people of Congress abuse the caste of Modi. They forget that the more they abuse, the resolve for 400 seats will become stronger. Yeh jitna keechad fekenge, 370 kamal utni hi shaan se khilege," PM Modi said.

The prime minister also pushed for the development of the textile sector and said that the fabrics from India would be exported to foreign countries.

"When I was in Gujarat, I used to talk about the 5 F.  It means Farm, Farm to fibre, Fibre to factory, Factory to fashion, Fashion to foreign. This means that farmers will grow cotton which will go to factories and the fabrics made in factories will then be exported to foreign countries. My goal was to have a supply & value chain for the textile sector," PM Modi said.

Earlier today while speaking in Mehsana, Modi said that for a long time in independent India, the Congress created a conflict and enmity between development and heritage.  

If anyone is to be blamed for this, it is the same Congress which ruled the country for decades. These are the same people who made even a holy place like Somnath temple a cause of controversy, he said.  

The Congress did not even show the desire to hoist a religious flag at the Pavagadh temple in Gujarat's Panchmahal district, and for decades linked the Sun temple at Modhera with vote bank politics, he said.  

These are the same people who raised questions at the existence of Lord Ram and created hurdles in the construction of his temple, Modi said.
