Prime Minister Narendra Modi, during a campaign rally in Gohana, Haryana on September 25, 2024, issued a strong warning against the possibility of Congress returning to power in the state. Addressing the crowd ahead of the upcoming Haryana Assembly elections scheduled for October 5, he stressed that if Congress were to take power, even by mistake, it would lead to the state’s destruction, hampering its progress and stability. Modi emphasized that Congress’s governance would undo the advancements made under the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in recent years.
In his speech, Modi outlined how Haryana, under BJP’s leadership, has positioned itself as a leader in sectors such as industry and agriculture. He highlighted that global businesses are now looking to invest in Haryana, fostering economic growth that primarily benefits farmers, the poor, and Dalits. This industrialization, he noted, was a realization of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar’s vision for empowering marginalized communities, a goal the BJP continues to pursue.
The Prime Minister further urged voters to support the BJP to maintain the state’s development trajectory, warning that a vote for Congress could set Haryana back. He credited the BJP with transforming Haryana into a prosperous state, citing the party’s efforts in boosting infrastructure, enhancing job creation, and improving living standards.
Modi’s rally in Gohana is seen as part of the BJP’s broader election strategy, aiming to solidify its position in Haryana by highlighting its governance successes and contrasting them with Congress’s past rule, which he claimed would lead the state to chaos. His remarks resonate with the BJP’s key electoral pitch of stability, progress, and prosperity under its rule.
As Haryana heads into a crucial election, Modi’s sharp critique of Congress is likely to shape the political discourse, especially as he aligns the BJP with development and growth, while painting Congress as a risk to the state’s future(Hindustan Times)
