Chandigarh: In his first election rally in Haryana the Prime Minister described the Congress Party as a “a new form of urban naxals’’.

He said the Congress has done nothing for farmers and the party’s “royal family” intends to end reservation for Dalits but as long as he was there, he will not allow this.
“If there is anybody who is the biggest anti-Dalit, anti-OBC and anti-tribal in the country, it is the Congress family. They have now said that if they come to power, they will end reservation for Dalits and the downtrodden. It is the truth of this family,” he said.

“During LS polls, they (the Congress) used to say that Rs 8,000 will be transferred in people’s account ‘khata khat’,” Modi said.
“All welfare schemes run by the previous BJP regime (in HP) have been halted. The economic situation is bad, but the Congress is not affected by people’s problems.”
“Did any farmer receive money in their accounts during Congress rule,” PM Modi asked.
Under the Kissan Samman Nidhi, more than Rs 3.25 lakh crore has been deposited in farmers’ accounts, he said, alleging the Congress leaves farmers on their own.
“See what is happening in Karnataka. During a short period of Congress’ rule in that state, about 1,200 farmers have committed suicide there,” the prime minister said.
