Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while addressing his first rally in poll-bound Haryana at Kurukshetra on Saturday, launched a strong attack on the Congress, branding it the "biggest dishonest and deceitful" party in the country. He highlighted the work done by the NDA government, stating that in just under 100 days, projects worth nearly ₹15 lakh crore had been initiated, including three crore 'pucca houses' for the poor. Expressing confidence in a BJP victory, Modi said the people of Haryana, an agrarian state, had seen the development and pro-farmer policies of the BJP and were ready to give the party a third consecutive term.
Targeting the Congress, Modi accused the party of spreading falsehoods and anarchy. He also claimed that Congress is out to defame India in its bid to discredit the BJP, referring to the party as a "new form of urban Naxal." Modi further attacked the Congress on the issue of reservation, alleging that the party's "royal family" intends to end quotas for Dalits.
He vowed to protect these reservations, calling the Congress "anti-Dalit, anti-OBC, and anti-tribal." The Prime Minister criticized Congress-led governments in states like Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka, and Telangana, accusing them of ruining prosperous states. He also took aim at the party over its stance on the Minimum Support Price (MSP), challenging it to explain its actions in Karnataka and Telangana.
In Haryana, Modi specifically targeted the Hooda family, accusing the previous Congress gov.
