Addressing a rally in Bhopal on Monday (25 September), Prime Minister Narendra Modi alleged that Congress is being run by 'urban naxals'.
"Today, I want to tell something to the people of Madhya Pradesh. Congress has lost all its will power. For some time now, ground leaders of Congress have been keeping quiet," Modi said.
"First, it (Congress) got ruined, then bankrupt and now it has given its contract to others. Congress is no longer run by Congress leaders," the PM claimed.
He further said, "Congress has now become a company that outsources everything, from slogans to policies. And this contract has been given to a few 'urban naxals'."
Modi claimed that this is being felt by every Congress worker on the ground and hence, the party is becoming hollow at the ground level.
The PM alleged that Congress rule in the state was known for wrong policies, mis-governance and corruption of worth crores of rupees which led to MP getting BIMARU tag.
Highlighting efforts of BJP government in the past 20 years, he said that the youth have only witnessed good governance and urged people to keep the development vehicle on track.
