PM Modi's Attack On Congress At Maharashtra Poll Rally: 'India Will Be Helpless If...'

PM Narendra Modi accused Congress of exploiting societal divisions, claiming that it creates conflicts between castes to weaken the country and strengthen its own position.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi trained guns on Congress on Saturday saying the grand old party takes advantage by creating and sustaining a divide between various sections of the society. 

Addressing a poll rally in Maharashtra's Akola, Modi reiterated the "ek hain to safe hain" phrase saying creating a divide between castes is the character and conspiracy of the Congress. 

"Congress is well aware, the more the country weakens, the more they will strengthen. 'Jab Congress mazboot hogi, desh majboor ho jaega'... Congress creates a divide between various castes. It never let our castes unite," Modi said. 

"If our castes do not stay united and stay conflicted with each other, Congress will take advantage of it. Congress will take away the rights of SCs... This is their conspiracy and character," he added.

"Remember, 'Ek hai toh safe hai'..." reiterated Modi. 

Further attacking the Congress, Modi said that whichever state it wins, it becomes an "ATM" for the "Congress's royal family." 

"These days, Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka, and Telangana have become their ATMs. In the name of elections in Maharashtra, they have looted Rs 700 crores from liquor sellers in Karnataka... You can imagine the loot once they win the elections...," he added.

Addressing the voters, Modi urged them to ensure a permanent house for anyone they meet who lives in a temporary house or hut on his behalf. 

"... When you visit other villages and meet people if you see a family still living in a temporary house or hut, send his name and address to me," Modi asked. 

"Assure him of a permanent house on my behalf... 'Mere liye aap hi Modi hain'. You promise him, and I will fulfil the promise," he added.
