Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while addressing an election rally in Uttar Pradesh’s Kushinagar on Sunday, launched a strong attack on the SP-BSP-RLD alliance.

PM Modi was campaigning in the support of Vijai Dubey, BJP’s candidate from the Kushinagar Lok Sabha constituency, reports ANI.

PM Modi reiterated that the BJP would form the next government at the centre after the results would be announced on May 23.

Targeting Akhilesh Yadav and Mayawati, he said that he had been the chief minister of Gujarat for much longer duration than the “bua-babua”, and the prime minister for five years but he never built a home for himself or any of his relative, instead he built homes for the poor, but they built bungalows worth lakhs and crores. When I got the chance to serve the people I constructed 1.5 crore houses for the poor. The same people are asking me about my caste.

Referring to the BSP supremo he said, “Behenji, whatever happened with you at the guest house had disturbed the women of the country. If you really care about the daughters of India then you should take away your support to the Rajasthan government without any delay after a Dalit daughter was gang-raped in the state. You are shedding crocodile tears and only issuing statements.”

Prime Minister Modi, citing the Sunday morning’s encounter in Jammu and Kashmir’s Shopian, said that the army will not go to the Election Commission or wait for its order to kill them.

“Aaj subah pata chala ki Kashmir mein kuch aatankwadiyon ko hamari sena ne maar giraya. Ab kuch logon ki ye pareshani hai ki aaj jab matdaan chal raha hai tab Modi ne aatankwadiyon ko kyun mara? (Today morning a few terrorists were killed by our Army in Kashmir. Now some people are worried as to why did Modi kill the terrorists when voting is underway)?

“Wo bomb-bandook lekar samne khada hai, kya wahan mera jawan Election Commission ki permission lene jaye ki main isko goli maroon ya na maroon? Acha Kashmir main jab se hum aaye hain har doosre-teesre din safai hoti rehti hai, ye safai abhiyaan mera kaam hai bhai. (An armed terrorist is attacking with weapons and bombs, is my soldier supposed to go to the Election Commission to take permission whether I should shoot them or not? Since we have taken charge in Kashmir every two, three days we kill terrorists. This cleaning process is my job),” he said.
