Prime Minister Narendra Modi, addressing an election rally in Kota, criticized the Rajasthan government, accusing it of transforming the region into a breeding ground for terrorism. He lamented the Congress's alleged role in converting Kota, historically known as a land of warriors, into a zone rife with unrest.
"The Congress is transforming Kota into a haven for terrorism," remarked PM Modi, expressing his concerns during the rally at Dussehra ground in Kota.
Highlighting the presence of PFI (Popular Front of India), a banned terrorist organization, PM Modi accused the Congress-led government of turning a blind eye to PFI rallies and events in Kota. "The Congress government seems indifferent. Are they turning a blind eye? Their appeasement policies have left them afraid to confront terrorists. They act against the wrong people," Modi asserted.
Emphasizing Kota's significance as an educational hub, Modi criticized the Congress for allegedly shattering the dreams of Rajasthan's youth. "Congress has repeatedly shattered the aspirations of Rajasthan's youth. Instances of exam paper leaks have marred the dreams of the younger generation," he added.
Addressing the issue of unemployment, PM Modi assured the audience that those responsible for leaking exam papers and filling their coffers illicitly will face consequences. "We will ensure that those who have gained from these leaks will face justice," he promised.
The Prime Minister pledged a thorough investigation into the Kota riverfront accident, where two individuals lost their lives allegedly due to pressure exerted by the Gehlot government to open the riverfront on November 25. "We won't just investigate this incident but also ensure justice for all," Modi assured.
He criticized the Congress government for allegedly restricting religious processions like Ram Navami and Hanuman Jayanti while allowing PFI rallies under tight police protection. "Under Congress rule, religious processions are curtailed, while PFI rallies flourish. The longer Congress governs, the more the people suffer," Modi stated.
PM Modi also highlighted BJP's focus on women's empowerment, criticizing the Chief Minister's statements about false rape allegations made by women. "The Chief Minister's remarks undermine the dignity of women, tarnishing the honor and values of our mothers and sisters," Modi criticized.
Ending on a positive note, Modi assured the audience of fulfilling Kota's dream of an airport, expressing determination to initiate the airport project once the government changes on December 3.
