Blaming the previous Uttar Pradesh government, he said that Kaushambi was deprived of development and blamed dynastic politics for it. PM Modi also alleged that the Samajwadi Party did everything it could to protect terrorists when it was in power in Uttar Pradesh.
"During the reign of the past governments, criminals roamed freely and forcefully took possession of other people's land and properties. Our mothers and daughters felt unsafe while coming out of their homes. Instead of providing good governance, the previous governments exploited the people and their leaders built lavish palaces. We on the other hand have made homes for the poor," he said.
He accused the ministers, MLAs and MPs of "dynast parties" of "stealing" the ration of the poor during their rule.
"We brought in 'One Nation, One Ration Card'. Now people of Kaushambi can use their ration cards anywhere in the country," he added.
