Addressing a public meeting in Puducherry today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, “There is something special about Puducherry that keeps bringing me back here again and again.” He accused Congress government for its negligence and said, “In the long list of non-performing Congress governments over the years, the previous Puducherry Government has a special place. The ‘High Command’ Government of Puducherry failed on all fronts.”

“Take any sector - education, filling of medical seats, welfare of SC-STs, there was only loot. MLAs belonging to the Congress Party were openly talking about the corruption directly linked to the family of the former Chief Minister,” he added.

Taking a dig at Congress party, the Prime Minister asserted, “I had a reasonably long experience in politics, I have seen many elections but Puducherry Elections 2021 is unique because the sitting Chief Minister has not been given a ticket. Previous Congress government headed by V Narayanasamy in Puducherry was a disaster.”

“So many years of loyalty, lifting the slippers of his leader, doing wrong translation to impress his leader. Still no ticket. This clearly shows how much of a disaster his government has turned out to be,” he added while addressing the rally in Puducherry.

Talking about the NDA’s development work, he said, “I had shared my vision for Puducherry in one word- Best. NDA will work to make Best Puducherry. By Best I mean: Business Hub, Education Hub, Spiritual Hub and Tourism Hub.”

Reminiscing the great legends of Puducherry, PM Modi remarked, “When I think of Puducherry I think about Bharathiyar. I think about Sri Aurobindo, Sithanda Swamy and Thollaikkathu Siddhar. I bow in reverence to the Manakula Vinayagar Swamy Temple and the Sreemath Guru Sithanandha Swamigal Devasthanam.”

“Seeing a huge wave in favour of NDA in four poll-bound states and one UT,” said PM Modi while requesting everyone to vote for the NDA in upcoming assembly polls.
