Congress knows that its fake promises won't work: PM Modi
UPDATED: Nov 14, 2023 13:18 IST
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday took a dig at Congress and said that the party knows that its "fake promises" won't work.
Addressing a rally in Madhya Pradesh's Betul, PM Modi said, “Congress knows that its fake promises won't work in front of Modi's guarantees. As November 17 is nearing, Congress' claims are getting exposed. Congress has accepted the defeat and now they're relying on luck."
He said that the Congress is "flying in the air" and is hence unable to see the problems faced by the poor. He also said that some Congress leaders are “sitting at home” and they don't even feel like going out.
“Congress leaders don't know what they will say to people. This election is to stop corruption and loot by Congress in Madhya Pradesh," he said.
PM Modi's speech came ahead of assembly elections in Madhya Pradesh. The state goes to polls on November 17 and results will be declared on December 3.
