'Congress Even Sought Opportunities For Corruption In Employment Of Youth': PM Modi At Rally In Rajasthan's Karauli

Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Karauli- Dholpur Lok Sabha constituency in Rajasthan on Thursday (11 April), addressing the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

"I come from Gujarat, and I understand the challenges of water scarcity," Modi said.

"We do not just sit with folded hands. The Congress has worked to earn money from water. The BJP took it as a responsibility and fulfilled it," he added.

Modi assured that in the coming years, every household in the region would have access to water.

He also criticised the Congress for seeking opportunities to profit from jobs for youth, mentioning the emergence of a paper leak industry during their rule.

"Congress is such a party that has even sought opportunities for corruption in the employment of the youth. Under the patronage of Congress, a paper leak industry has emerged," he said.

"Modi had given you a guarantee that if BJP government comes to power in Rajasthan, then paper leak mafia will be seen in jail and Modi fulfilled his guarantee," he added.

He mentioned the importance of Karauli-Dholpur as a land of devotion and strength, where the legacy of Madan Mohan Ji is revered.

"The upcoming elections are not just about who will become a Member of Parliament or who will not," Modi declared.

"This election is about invigorating a developed India with new energy. The Congress gave up in the face of problems. Congress has been giving the slogan of 'eradicate poverty' for decades, but Modi has managed to lift 250 million people out of poverty in 10 years," he said.

Continuing his speech, PM Modi highlighted various government schemes, including the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi and other initiatives in agriculture and healthcare.

PM also mentioned the success of the Vande Bharat Mission and the government's efforts to become self-reliant in defense deals.

Attacking Congress, Modi remarked, "The Congress, which once gave Katchatheevu to Sri Lanka, has a dangerous history and intentions."

"This is the same Congress that had given away Katchatheevu, an island near Tamil Nadu, to Sri Lanka. Now, Congress shamelessly justifies this anti-national act. Just yesterday, Congress questioned if anyone lives on Katchatheevu," he said.

"If no one lives there, will you give it away? Is this how one serves the nation? This is their mentality. For them, an empty part of the country is just a piece of land," PM Modi added.
