THE JHARKHAND STORY DESK

 

Katra, September 19: Urging people to vote thoughtfully in the ongoing Assembly elections, which he described as crucial to the “future of Jammu and Kashmir,” Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday called for the political downfall of the Congress, NC, and PDP, accusing them of causing harm to the region for years.

Speaking at a campaign rally in Katra in Jammu and Kashmir’s Reasi district, the Prime Minister accused the Congress leadership of deliberately insulting Hindu deities as part of a calculated conspiracy driven by a “Naxal mindset.” He questioned whether they should not be held accountable for this behavior.

This was the PM Modi’s second rally in Jammu and Kashmir on Thursday and his third within a week. Earlier that day, he addressed a rally in Srinagar, and on September 14, Modi had spoken at a gathering in Doda district.

PM Modi called this election crucial for determining the future of Jammu and Kashmir and urged voters to back the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to propel the ‘new Jammu and Kashmir’ to new heights.

“This election is for choosing the future of Jammu and Kashmir. This election is meant to take the ‘new Jammu and Kashmir’ to new heights,” he said.

“The three families of the Congress, NC and PDP inflicted wounds on the people here for years together. We have to ensure the political sunset of these parties by pressing the button next to the lotus, the symbol of the BJP. It is the BJP that prioritised your interests and ended the decades-old discrimination with the region,” the PM stated, giving the slogan “Abki baar, BJP sarkar”.
