Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed a campaign rally in Madhya Pradesh on Tuesday (7 November), where he criticised the Congress for constantly resorting to personal attacks against him.
Prime Minister Modi further claimed that the party even opposed the nomination of Droupadi Murmu, the nation's first tribal woman President.
The campaign rally was held in the Sidhi district of Madhya Pradesh, which is scheduled to hold Assembly elections on 17 November.
Prime Minister Modi stated, "Congress never forgets to abuse me daily...It even opposed the election of the country's first tribal woman President as it is only interested in the vote bank of tribals and not their welfare. The party also did not attend the swearing-in of the country's first Dalit chief information commissioner despite getting an invitation in advance."
The Prime Minister highlighted the government's success in preventing scams, which not only saved money but also enabled the development of schemes aimed at benefiting the underprivileged.
An amount of Rs 13,000 crore is being allocated for the 'PM Vishwakarma' scheme, which aims to support traditional artisans and craftspeople.
Prime Minister Modi announced that his administration is currently working on establishing a significant solar power hub in the Vindhya region of the state.
