PM Modi hits at Congress for ‘dividing societies on religious lines’

New Delhi: While saying that political purity will not come unless Congress culture ends, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday hit at the Congress for spreading lies by hiring foreign agencies and diving societies on religious lines.
In an interactive session with BJP candidates, state office bearers and leaders of Karnataka via the Narendra Modi app, the Prime Minister urged them not to fall for the Congress’ lie and focus on people-to-people contact till the voting.
“If you analyse last few elections, you will realise how a few a few political parties have indulged in diving societies on religious lines. They give lollipops to a community before elections and then forget them,” the Prime Minister said, adding that “this is the working style of the Congress in which they exploit emotions of some community before the elections and forget them after the polls are over.”
Further attacking the Congress, he said that the grand old party has resorted to rampant lying after a series of defeats in elections. Earlier, the Congress used to spread lies over five to 10 issues they raised. Now out of 50 issues, 40-45 are based on lies,” the Prime Minister said. “Karyakartas (party workers) must stand their ground, expose their lies and also fight their means of dividing people by hiring foreign agencies,” Modi said.
