Addressing a gathering in Belur, Karnataka, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a scathing attack on the Congress and JD(S) party, labeling them as symbols of instability.
He cited several examples of alleged infighting and power struggles within Congress-ruled states, including Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan.
PM Modi: JD(S) is B team of Congress
Taking a dig at JD(S), PM Modi accused the party of being a "B team of Congress" and claimed that it had joined hands with Congress in an attempt to loot Karnataka.
He further alleged that both parties were together on every issue in Parliament, and warned that a vote for JD(S) would only benefit the PM Congress.
PM Modi urges people to vote for BJP for development
PM Modi said that voting for Congress meant putting brakes on the development of the state, as he sought to paint a picture of the opposition parties as an obstacle to progress.
He further urged the people of Karnataka to vote for the BJP, promising that his party would continue to work towards the development of the state.
The Prime Minister's remarks come at a time when Karnataka is gearing up for assembly elections. The BJP is hoping to retain power in the state, while the Congress and JD(S) have formed an alliance to challenge the ruling party.
Karnataka Assembly elections is scheduled on May 10. Results will be out on May 13.
