'Maharashtra election exposes double face of INDI-Aghadi': PM Modi
On poll victory in Maharashtra, PM Narendra Modi said, "This Maharashtra election has exposed the double face of the INDI-Aghadi...The Congress leadership has constantly insulted Veer Savarkar across the country. They have even abused him. To get votes in Maharashtra, these people temporarily stopped abusing him. But not even once have they spoken the truth about Savarkar's sacrifice and this shows their double face. Their only motive is to defame Veer Savarkar."

'People of Maharashtra also saw how Congress...': PM Modi
"The people of Maharashtra also saw how the Congress government is betraying the people in Karnataka, Telangana and Himachal. You will also see this in Punjab...Today there is another message of the mandate of Maharashtra. Only one Constitution will work in the entire country, that is the Constitution of Babasaheb Ambedkar, the Constitution of India. Whoever talks about two Constitutions in the country, the country will completely reject them. Congress and its allies tried to build a wall of Article 370 again in Jammu and Kashmir. Maharashtra has clearly told them that this will not work. Now no power in the world can bring back Article 370," said PM Modi.
