Oppn\'s agenda to dislodge me from power, promote dynastic politics: PM

Saharanpur: Addressing a second rally in Uttar Pradesh’s Saharanpur, Prime Minister Narendra Modi slammed the opposition parties alleging their only agenda was to dislodge him from power and promote dynastic politics.

He targeted the Congress accusing it of being against the welfare of the backward classes and termed its poll manifesto a "dhakosla patra (sham document)".

"The opposition's only agenda is 'Modi Hatao' (remove Modi). Their only intention is to promote 'vansvaad' (dynastic politics)," he said.

Modi charged the opposition parties with spreading canard in Saharanpur, Kairna, Muzaffarnagar and the entire western Uttar Pradesh that Shaharnpur was their "new laboratory".

"But remember, when there was 'mahamilawat', the government at the Centre and then SP government in Uttar Pradesh did an experiment in Muzaffarnagar also," he said.

"Saharanpur is going to reject vote-bank politics of the SP, BSP and the Congress. People here trust the BJP," Modi claimed. "They (opposition) give threat of 'boti-boti' (cut into pieces) and we talk of honour of "beti-beti" (daughter)," he said, adding the opposition parties also use a term "chowkidar (watchman) of toilet".

"When I washed the feet of cleaners at the Kumbh mela in Prayagraj, 'behenji' (Mayawati) had all the time to make fun of me, but when the Congress humiliated the cleaners, she did not even release a statement," Modi added.

Earlier on Friday, Prime Minister Modi addressed an election rally in Uttar Pradesh’s Amroha and said he would like to thank the Government of UAE and people of UAE for honouring him with the Zayed medal.

“This is not an award given to him but to the Indian people,” Modi added.

Taking a dig at the opposition, Modi said replying to terrorists in their own language is not liked by some people. “When India hits back at the enemy, some people here start crying. When Pakistan is being exposed in front of the world these people start speaking in support of Pakistan,” he added.

Continuing his attack, Modi said terrorists became bold because of the soft attitude of the Congress, SP and BSP.

He told he crowd attacks had stopped in last five years because they had appointed a ‘chowkidar’ in Delhi and terrorists know Modi will go after them even in hell.
