Madhya Pradesh Elections: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday addressed the BJP workers in the state capital Bhopal and said that Congress made MP a 'bimaru' state. He said this 'Mahakumbh' of workers shows BJP with full of new energy and high spirits of workers. PM Modi said that Madhya Pradesh is called the heart of the country and its relation with BJP has always been very special. The PM said that since the era of Jan Sangh, the people of MP have always blessed the BJP with their love. He said that the state is also an important centre point of development in the country. 

He slammed the Congress party and said that corruption was the symbol of its governance in the state when the grand old party was in power. The Prime Minister said that Congress made MP a 'Bimaru (ill)' state. Calling out the workers, he said that if Congress comes to power, it will again make MP 'bimaru', adding that "don't let them loot it again".

The PM was speaking at 'Karyakarta Mahakumbh' programme which was organised on the birth anniversary of Deendayal Upadhyay, one of the co-founders of the Jana Sangh, to culminate the party's statewide 'Jan Ashirwad Yatra'. This is PM Modi's third visit to Madhya Pradesh in the past 45 days. Over 10 lakh people were gathered at the event site in Bhopal's Jamburi.

He said, "The BJP government in Madhya Pradesh has completed almost 20 years. This means the youths who will be voting for the first time in the upcoming elections, have only seen the BJP government. The present youth of Madhya Pradesh are lucky that they have not witnessed the bad governance of the Congress government."

Blaming Congress for delaying the development of the state, he said, "The Congress turned a prosperous state into 'bimaru'. The youths of the state have not seen the deplorable law and order condition during the Congress rule. The upcoming (MP Assembly) polls are very crucial. We have to make sure that the path of development created by the people of MP, that vehicle of development doesn't wander or stop."

He said that it was the time to make India and Madhya Pradesh developed, adding "At such a crucial time, if a dynast party like Congress, which has a history of scams, gets a chance, then MP will suffer a big loss". 

He said that Congress is parivarwadi party with a history of graft and appeasement. "It is like a rusted iron that will be finished if kept in the rain," he added.

Congress Controlled By Urban Naxals Only: PM Modi In Bhopal

He said that nation is working hard towards prosperity but Congress wants to take the country back to the 20th century.  Modi said that Congress has given its command to someone else and that someone "urban naxals".

"Congress has lost all its willpower. The grassroots leaders of Congress have been sitting quietly with their mouths locked...  First, Congress was ruined, then they became bankrupt and now they have given their contract to someone else. The party is no longer being run by its leaders. Now it is outsourcing everything, from slogans to policies, and this contract is with some urban Naxalites..."
