In Meerut, Modi campaigned for famed actor Arun Govil, who has been fielded by the party from this Lok Sabha seat for the upcoming polls. Govil became a household name after essaying the role of Lord Ram in Ramanand Sagar's 'Ramayan'.
At the rally, Modi said that the BJP government brought crores of people out of poverty.

I guarantee you, when we become the third largest economy, not only will poverty be eradicated, but a new empowered middle class will fuel India's growth," the prime minister stated.

"The INDI alliance, which hates farmers, did not even give due respect to Chaudhary Charan Singh. The entire country saw what the INDI alliance did inside the Parliament during the discussion in the Parliament. When our younger brother Jayant Chaudhary stood up to speak in Parliament regarding the Bharat Ratna award, an attempt was made to stop him, an attempt was made to humiliate him. Congress and SP should go door-to-door and apologize to the farmers of this area for this," he added.
He said the BJP government is preparing for the third term. "Our government is getting ready for its third term. We are creating a roadmap for the next five years. We are working on the big decisions we need to make in the first 100 days of our next term. The momentum of development created in the last 10 years, will move ahead with more speed," he said.

Speaking of India's development, Modi said, "I said this from the ramparts of Red Fort that this is the right time. India's time has come. Today, modern infrastructure is being built rapidly in India. Today, India is making unprecedented investments in building infrastructure.

Today, India's credibility is at a new height, the whole world is looking at India with confidence."
