Madhya Pradesh Assembly Election 2023: Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the poll rally in Madhya Pradesh's Seoni today (November 5). PM Modi said, "It is the guarantee of the people that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is going to win Assembly elections. Our Madhya Pradesh needs continuity in good governance and development. The entire state says 'BJP hai toh bharosa hai, BJP hai toh vikas hai, BJP hai toh behtar bhavishya hai'."
Here is what PM Modi said in his poll speech at Seoni:
- I say this clearly that there is a gang in politics that does some calculations and makes up their mind by questioning just 5-10 people. They should come and see here, it is clear who is winning. Our member of parliament was telling me that a Prime Minister came here after 30 years and I was fortunate enough to get this opportunity
- Congress did not do anything for tribals during five-six decades after the Independence
- Congress party never bothered about the welfare of Tribals despite ruling the country for over five decades
- Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana to be extended for 5 years
- Though PM Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana will end in December but since we can feel the pain of the poor, we have decided to again give guarantee for free ration for the next five years after December
- During the COVID-19 pandemic, we did whatever was required to save the people of our country. We ensured that the poorest of the poor do not suffer from food shortage. That's why we gave free rations to people
- Before 2014, each scam of Congress used to be worth lakhs of crores, now there are no scams in the BJP government. The money that we have saved for the rights of the poor is now being spent on the ration of the poor. This is the biggest difference between the scammer Congress government and the BJP government.
