The electoral atmosphere intensified as PM Narendra Modi engaged in two spirited rallies in Sagwara and Kotri ahead of the Rajasthan assembly election. “This region has suffered greatly under Congress rule. The people of Dungarpur are well aware of how the misrule of the Congress has shattered the dreams of the youth,” PM Modi said while addressing the public rally.

Speaking firmly against the Congress for ruining the youth’s future, PM Modi said, “The Congress government has been involved in corruption in every government recruitment in Rajasthan. The children of Congress leaders and their close associates have become officers while your children were left out. The Congress-backed paper leak mafia has ruined the future of the youth in Rajasthan. Today, the pages of the red diary of dark deeds are unfolding... those are the dark truths of the Congress government.”

He added, “Even if the Congress publishes the entire red diary of promises, Modi’s guarantee is still stronger against every false commitment of theirs. Where hopes end with Congress regarding the welfare of the poor and public welfare, Modi’s guarantee begins from there.”

Addressing the shortcomings of the Congress, PM Modi asserted, “Congress never sees anyone beyond its own family. Anyone who even looks towards the Congress family knows that Congress leaves no stone unturned to belittle them. Congress did the same with Baba Saheb Ambedkar. Congress insulted Sardar Patel in the same way. The BJP has developed key places associated with Baba Saheb Ambedkar as Panch Teerth.”

“With the support of all of you, today in Kevadia, the world’s tallest statue of Sardar Patel has been erected. Every day, thousands of people go there to see the Statue of Unity. But to date, not a single leader of the Congress has gone to the Statue of Unity. This is the reality of Congress. Therefore, you need to be cautious of Congress. Congress is not for Dalits, not for the backward, not for tribals, not for the poor. Congress has remained a slave to just one family,” he added.

PM Modi shed light on the expansion of the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana and initiatives aimed at the welfare of tribal communities, among other topics. He said, “The central government is also emphasizing the development of modern infrastructure in this region. We have started the Ahmedabad-Banswara-Dungarpur rail project. A new train has started from Dungarpur. Work is also about to begin on supplying affordable gas through pipelines in the cities of Dungarpur and Banswara. This will make your lives easier and boost business and trade as well.”

While addressing the second rally in Kotri, Rajasthan, which witnessed a massive turnout with enthusiastic supporters, PM Modi said, “Today the whole of Rajasthan is saying ‘Gehlot ji, Koni mile vote ji!”

During his impactful speech, PM Modi expressed concern about the state's cultural heritage, emphasizing its significance for the entire nation. He raised a red flag against the Congress government, citing a substantial threat to Rajasthan's culture due to their policies of appeasement.

He said, “The people of Bhilwara are well aware of how communal tension has continuously increased under the Congress government here. Congress has given undue freedom to extremist elements here. If Congress remains in power, there will be an increase in migration, and there will be more atrocities on women and the poor. Therefore, today, the time demands to remove Congress from the Rajasthan government.”

Addressing the water scarcity issues in Bhilwara, PM Modi acknowledged the challenges faced by many homes and thousands of people waiting for the sweet water of the Chambal. Highlighting Congress’ corruption, the PM said, “The Union government had sent funds for projects related to water, however, Congress did corruption and misused them. This is the true identity of Congress.”

Taking a dig at Congress' recently released manifesto, PM Modi questioned the party's decades-long claim of eliminating poverty. He contrasted Congress' track record with the achievements of the BJP government, where over 13 crore people have been lifted out of poverty in five years. The PM asserted “The BJP's direction and path are correct for the nation.”

PM Modi also lauded the efforts of the BJP government in opening a medical college in Bhilwara district, showcasing the commitment to improving healthcare infrastructure.

While concluding his address, the PM highlighted the natural beauty of Bijolia and said, “Bijolia is famous for its natural beauty, but the mining mafias in Rajasthan have caused havoc on these hills.” The Prime Minister assured that an end will be put to such activities. Also, PM Modi cited the recent introduction of two Vande Bharat trains in Rajasthan, simplifying the lives of the people.
