Rajnath Singh campaigns in Karkala, Belthangady; says Cong destroyed India, Modi rebuilt it!

Udupi, Apr 24: Addressing a huge rally of Bharatiya Janata Party at Karkala, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Monday claimed that the country would soon be in the list of top five fastest growing economies of the world.

The minister said that in the past four years, the country has been marching towards a developed country status under the magnificent rule of BJP. The Congress, that ruled the country for 70 years after independence, has ruined the country’s status and image. Even Karnataka is no different to it, claimed said.

“The Assembly elections should be purely based on the agenda of development,” he said and added that as many as 25 Hindu activists have been killed in the state. Karnataka was following the model of political murder of Kerala. There should not be any violence in politics,” he said.

He said that Congress and corruption are two faces of the same coin. Stating that no development works have been initiated by the Congress-led government in Karnataka, he said that the law and order situation has collapsed in the state. The Congress is only keen on raising non issues to divert the minds of the people, he said.

He said he would like to advise his Congress colleagues that politics should be for nation building and not merely for forming the government.

He said that, “Congress government should be held responsible for the 3,781 deaths of farmers. The Congress is playing with the death of farmers. Conflicts are being created for disturbing peace. The Congress party’s achievement is only failures from all angles and corruption is the epitome of Congress.”

He added that this election will be undoubtedly not in favour of the Congress.

“I am emotionally attached to Karnataka. The political scenario in the country has changed after BJP came to power at the Centre,” he said and sought to know as to where the Rs 2.90 lakh crore fund allotted by the Central government went?

Rajnath Singh also addressed a rally in Belthangady.
