Bharatpur, Nov 18: Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a scathing attack on the Congress party on Saturday, levelling accusations of “terrorism” and “atrocities” against women.
PM Modi attacked the Congress party over the alleged abuses against women in the state, saying, “Where there is Congress government, terrorism, atrocities, all these things, are unbridled there… For Congress appeasement is everything and for it, they can go to any level…”
PM Modi made these statements while addressing a campaign rally in Bharatpur, Rajasthan.
Accusing Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot regarding women’s safety in the state, PM Modi stated, “Congress has broken the trust of the women in the state. Can the CM safeguard the women of the state who himself is saying that women register fake rape cases… Such a misogynistic party should be punished…”
“Congress ministers have a low mentality toward the women of the state… They say this (rape) is happening because Rajasthan is a land of men,” he added.

The Prime Minister asserted that the BJP has crafted a robust manifesto for Rajasthan and is committed to enhancing law and order in the state.
“BJP’s resolve is to make Rajasthan the leading state of the country. BJP’s resolve is to attack corruption strongly in Rajasthan, to create a safe environment for our sisters and daughters,” he stated.
He reaffirmed the BJP’s dedication to honoring the commitments put forth by its Rajasthan unit.
“We will do our best to fulfil the promises made by Rajasthan BJP. These promises made to you will definitely be fulfilled, this is also Modi’s guarantee”, the PM said.
Reminding Congress of their obligation to safeguard every citizen’s life, the Prime Minister stated, “Congress’s responsibility was to protect the life and property of every citizen. But in the last 5 years, crimes and atrocities against women, Dalits, tribals and the deprived have increased”.
Expressing concerns about the state’s law and order, the Prime Minister attacked Congress and commented that no festival unfolds peacefully in the state.
“Be it Holi, Ramnavmi or Hanuman Jayanti, people cannot celebrate any festival peacefully here. Riots, stone pelting, curfew, all this continued in Rajasthan,” he alleged.
Rajasthan is scheduled for elections on November 25, and the results, along with those of four other state assembly elections, will be counted on December 3.
