Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said the Congress government in Rajasthan cannot think of anything except appeasement politics.
“The Congress government here thinks of nothing except appeasement,” Modi said adding that because of this policy, those with the mentality of riots and terrorism flourished in the state in five years.
The PM was addressing an election rally in Rajasthan’s Pali district.
He further said the Congress and its allies want to destroy Sanatan. “Destroying Sanatan means destroying the culture of Rajasthan,” Modi added.
The PM also accused the Congress of turning a blind eye to incidents of atrocities against SCs. “Congress closes its eyes when it sees those committing atrocities against Dalits,” he said.
Modi also accused the Congress and its allies of having an anti-women mindset. “Ever since the law giving reservation to women was passed, they have started a campaign against women. The leaders of the arrogant alliance have made very objectionable comments about our mothers and sisters,” he said.
Holding the Congress responsible for high petrol prices in the state, Modi said the review of the petrol prices will be done after the formation of the BJP government.
Modi said that during the Congress regime, tax used to be collected on income of Rs 2 lakh annually but now no tax is collected on income of upto Rs 7 lakh. “Due to the reduction in direct tax, Rs 2.5 lakh crore has been saved,” he said.
The PM further said if the price of mobile data was the same as during the time of the Congress government, one would have to spend Rs 5,000 more today on mobile data every month.
