Prime Minister Narendra Modi addresses a rally in Meerut, Uttar Pradesh:

- First War of Independence began here in Meerut in 1857. That time fight was against British now we are fighting poverty.

- Uttar Pradesh has so much potential but why do youth of UP not have employment opportunities.

- Uttar Pradesh gave me affection and I am trying everything possible for progress of UP. A lot has been done but I want to work more.

- If we have a state government that creates obstacles then the development works will get stalled in Lucknow. Nothing will reach people.

- Why are innocent citizens being killed? Why are innocent traders being killed? There is no fear of the law among the killers.

- Congress was going to every village saying how UP has been looted. They were demeaning the SP and the state government.

- Those who have been rejected by the people, how can they talk about saving the state?

- This election is BJP's fight against 'scam' ; 'S' for Samajwadi Party, 'C' for Congress, 'A' for Akhilesh, 'M' for Mayawati. People want scam or development of Uttar Pradesh.

- What politics guided you when you prevented development works and healthcare to reach people?

- We are willing to do everything for the growth of UP. To change the fortunes of UP change the government in the state.

- If voted to power in UP, the Bharatiya Janata Party will clear all dues of sugarcane farmers within 14 days.
