Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday targeted the Congress-led INDIA alliance saying their faces, sin, and habits all are same just the name has been changed. Addressing a public meeting in Gujarat's Rajkot where he inaugurated an international airport, PM Modi said, "Now when the nation is moving forward, some people are not liking it...they are pissed with the fact that dreams of people are getting accomplished, that's why these corruptors and dynasts have changed the name of their group." 

"Faces, sins, habits, all are the same but the group's name has been changed," he added.

During his address, PM Modi remembered families of those who lost their lives during cyclone Biparjoy and the floods in the state.

"My thoughts are with those families who had to suffer losses due to natural disasters like cyclone and flood...state govt and people together faced this challenges...state govt is doing everything possible to bring back normalcy and the centre is providing all the help required to the state government," he said. 

 Furthering his attack on the Opposition, PM Modi said, “Those who used to keep the people of the country thirsty (for development), those who had no concern for aspirations and expectations of people are angry as they can see that dreams of people of the country are being fulfilled."

“We came to power with the guarantee of good governance and in the last nine years we have delivered it,” he added. 

On Thursday, PM Modi inaugurated Gujarat's first greenfield airport near Rajkot city, built at a cost of Rupees 1,405 crore. 

The facility, located in Hirasar village, around 30 km from Rajkot, is spread over an area of 1,025.50 hectares (2,534 acres), out of which the Airports Authority of India has constructed the airport in an area of 1,500 acres, a government release said.

It has a 3,040 metre (3.04 km)-long and 45-meter-wide runway where 14 planes can be parked at any given point, it added.
