DHANBAD, March 1: Calling Congress "scammers," Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday launched a scathing attack on the grand old party in Dhanbad and said that Congress and its allies are the "biggest enemies of development."
"Congress and its alliance parties are the biggest enemies of development ... The foundation stone of the electricity power plant of North Karanpura was laid by former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee at the end of the previous century... After that, the scammer government of Congress came into power and this project was shut down... In 2014, I gave a guarantee of reviving this project. Today, a number . of houses are lightened because of this power plant," the Prime Minister said.
The Prime Minister further said that for the development of Jharkhand, better law and order and an honest government is important.
Calling the JMM-Congress government dynastic and corrupt, Modi said "extortion" has increased under the present regime, and they have created "mountains of unnamed properties."
"But the dynastic, corrupt, and appeasing government of JMM-Congress has deteriorated the situation... In Jharkhand, extortion has increased. Because of appeasement, trespassing has increased. JMM-Congress leaders are busy filling their safe vaults. They have created mountains of unnamed properties," PM Modi lashed out at JMM. —ANI
