DETHRONE NIKAMMI NAVEEN GOVT: MODI

In his strongest-ever attack on Odisha Chief Minister Naveen
Patnaik, BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi on Friday described
the State’s BJD Government as ‘nikammi’ (useless) and asked the people to throw
it out in this election.
“This
Government has taken you for granted. It thinks it has the people of Odisha in
its pocket. It believes you will continue to vote for it whether it is does
anything for you or not. I am surprised how you have been tolerating such a
Government for 14 years,” Modi said, addressing a BJP election rally at
Balangir.
The
Gujarat Chief Minister taunted his Odisha counterpart, saying Naveen, along
with four of his Ministerial colleagues, can drive by a Maruti car through the
pipeline that the Gujarat Government has built to supply water to the parched
Kutch region.
“And
see what your Government has done here! You have all the water sources, but
people here do not get drinking water!” Modi exclaimed.Among others, BJP State
president KV Singh Deo, Balangir BJP MP candidate Sangeeta Singh Deo and party
MLA candidates of the district including Balangir Sadar’s Basu Pati also spoke
on this occasion.
Later,
addressing a huge gathering at the Sector-13 Air Strip Ground at Rourkela, Modi
urged people to throw out the Congress from power at the Centre. He charged the
Congress with corruption, destruction of economy, price rise and messing with
the nation’s foreign policy. He urged people to give him 60 months so that he
can correct the mistakes committed in the country during the last 60
years.
Modi
said not a single pie has been spent so far from the Nirvaya fund. Rather,
women atrocities in country are on the rise with Odisha in the forefront.At
this rally, the last of the three he addressed in western Odisha on the day,
Modi reiterated his view that the Naveen Government is “nikammi” and wondered
how the Odisha people have been tolerating such a Government for 14 long years.
“Naveen
babu, your days are over now,” Modi remarked.Despite being rich in minerals and
other natural resources, Odisha is the country’s poorest State and its people
are migrating to other States, including Gujarat, to seek jobs, Modi pointed
out, adding that without any mineral resource Gujarat is a developed State.
There is every opportunity to make Odisha the country’s number one State, which
would only be possible if the BJP comes to power here, he asserted.
Referring
to a local issue, Modi criticised the decision of establishing the proposed
ESIC Medical College and Hospital in Bhubaneswar against the interest of the
working class of Rourkela in particular and western Odisha in general. Among
others, Sundargarh MP candidate Jual Oram, all seven MLA candidates of the
district including Dilip Ray of Rourkela shared the dais with Modi.
