BJP will take Congress to task for all misuses of CBI, if we come to power, says Modi

Bhopal: BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi today virtually threatened the UPA government of “taking into account” all misuses of CBI by the present dispensation if the BJP comes to power after the 2014 elections. “Agar hum satta me aaye, to hum in sab cheezon ka chun-chun ke hisaab lengey” (if we come to power we will take account of all misuses of CBI), said Modi amidst applause by party supporters. Accusing the UPA government of misusing the CBI to target political opponents, Modi today said it will be the agency that will “fight” the coming assembly and Lok Sabha elections and not the Congress party.“The Congress party is not going to field candidates in the elections in Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan and Delhi and the next Lok Sabha polls. Congress will not fight the next Lok Sabha elections but will field the CBI instead,” he said addressing a big BJP workers' congregation.Witnessed by the top BJP leadership, including Advani, BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate said Congress should be overthrown as its government at the Centre discriminates against BJP and NDA-ruled states.He claimed Congress does not have the power to take on BJP and the people are going to punish it for their problems.“We have to free this nation of the Congress. We have to free this nation of Congress' actions. Free the nation from the corruption of the Congress,” he said and asked the crowd whether they would implement Mahatma Gandhi's last wish that the Congress party should be wound up after independence. The crowd shouted back with a resounding yes.Alleging that the “Delhi Sultanate” is harassing the people of Madhya Pradesh by discriminating against the state, he said, “The government in Delhi does not let Shivraj be in peace. It creates hurdles in the implementation of any schemes he plans. If you have to fight, fight with leaders like us and not with the common people. Don't take away their rights.”Modi said Congress has, of late, started talking about "inclusive growth" as BJP ruled states have always emphasised on it.“I do not have an iota of doubt about BJP's victory in the next elections,” Modi said while claiming that there is a tide in favour his party. He said all surveys were today speaking in favour of the BJP.Modi heaped praise on Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and said his efforts to alleviate the sufferings of the people have been hampered by the hurdles created by the Centre in the implementation of his programmes.Modi said Congress should be overthrown as its government at the Centre discriminates against BJP and NDA-ruled states. “Congress doesn't have the strength to fight us and so it has brought in the CBI. Hindustan will not forgive you. Don't forget Emergency when people picked Congress and defeated it. Now too the country will give you a befitting reply,” he said.Modi claimed Congress does not have the power to take on BJP and the people are going to punish it for their problems.“We have to free this nation of the Congress. We have to free this nation of Congress' actions. Free the nation from the corruption of the Congress,” he said and asked the crowd whether they would implement Mahatma Gandhi's last wish that the Congress party should be wound up after independence. The crowd shouted back with a resounding yes. “The meaning of fulfilment of Mahatma Gandhi's wish is freeing the nation of Congress, its corruption, its misdeeds, its nepotism and establishing true democracy,” he said.“All surveys are predicting a victory for us. From Kashmir to Kanyakumari,” he asserted amid continual cheers of “Modi, Modi” by the crowd.Even as Modi is on a spree addressing rallies across the country, Advani, in his speech, said, “Today if BJP has reached this place in Indian politics it is not because of eloquent speeches but the hard work and penance of party workers. We will not win elections merely on the basis of speeches but on the basis of the work done by us.” He hailed the performance of the erstwhile NDA government at the Centre and BJP governments in various states. He praised the performance of Modi as well as Chouhan and Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh. Advani made a special mention of the presence of BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate, saying the party has chosen him for the post.With crowds chanting Modi's name, Advani ended his brief speech.Modi, in his address, accused the ruling Congress of discriminating against non-Congress ruled states.“There was not one state government when there was Atal-Advani government at the centre which complained about being neglected by the Centre. Now, the government in Delhi does not let Shivraj Singh Chouhan be in peace.Modi heaped praise on Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and said his efforts to alleviate the sufferings of the people have been hampered by the hurdles created by the Centre in the implementation of his programmes. He said, Congress has, of late, started talking about “inclusive growth” as BJP ruled states have always emphasised on it.Modi accused Congress of not doing anything without politics in mind and said it has “eaten away lakhs of crores” of rupees by corruption.He recalled that during the emergency, the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi had introduced the 20-point programme for the welfare of the weaker sections of the society and BJP and NDA-ruled states were amongst the top five best performing states, forcing the Congress to stop its monitoring to avoid embarrassment.The BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate said it only indicated that Congress ruled states had failed to do anything for the poor in the country.Modi said that according to his information no reviews of the programme were now been undertaken simply because their results portrayed the Congress in a very poor light.Rajnath Singh, who spoke after Advani, said, “Modi can become the Prime Minister of the country and Shivraj Singh Chouhan the Chief Minister in Madhya Pradesh” only if the worker of BJP at booth level works hard.Joshi, Swaraj and Jaitley expressed confidence that Chouhan would perform a hat-trick by winning the assembly election again in Madhya Pradesh.
