Cong culture based on lies, PM tells Puducherry

February 25, 2021 13:02

PM Narendra Modi greets BJP workers and supporters at a rally in Puducherry.

"The high command Congress government in Puducherry made it a point to damage every sector of governance. Traditional mills closed. Local industry was troubled. Congress doesn't believe in working for the people.

"Puducherry deserves a government whose high command is the people of Puducherry not a small group of Congress leaders sitting in Delhi. NDA assures Puducherry - the next government will be a people-powered government.

"In 2016, Puducherry didn't get a people's govt. They got a govt that was busy serving the Congress high command in Delhi, their priorities were different. Your former CM was an expert in lifting the slippers of his top party leaders.

"A few days ago the entire nation saw a video. A helpless woman was complaining about Puducherry govt and CM neglect during cyclone and floods. One could see the pain in her eyes. One could hear the pain in her voice.

"Instead of telling the truth to the nation, the former Puducherry CM gave a wrong translation of the woman's words. He lied to the people and his own leader. Can a party whose culture is based on lies ever serve people?"
