While addressing a rally in poll-bound Gujarat Modi slammed Congress for disgraceful comments against him. He then proceeded to Jasdan near Rajkot and Amreli, followed by Kadodara near Surat.
Modi’s mention of the former Patel CMs of Gujarat can be seen as an attempt to reach out to the Patidars and also underscores the BJP’s concerns over the Patidar reservation movement led by Hardik Patel that is supporting the Congress now.
Modi spoke in Gujarati in all the rallies. He spoke about a few local issues and the work done by him for the particular region when he was the chief minister of the state. But his main narrative remained the criticism of Congress, the Nehru-Gandhi family, and that the party ‘hated Gujarat’.
He asserted that Indira Gandhi’s Congress unseated former Patidar CM Babu Patel from power and handed over the reins of power to Madhavsinh Solanki. The BJP also extended support to Chimanbhai Patel (Janata Dal) government. After that, when Keshubhai Patel and Anandiben Patel were CMs, the Congress played several games to throw them out of power as well, he added.
He slammed Congress as they don’t have a neta(leader) nor any niti(policy). He also added that he used to sell tea in the early stages, but not like Congress leaders who sold the country.
