PM Narendra Modi in Odisha

As the campaigning for the second phase of Lok Sabha polls ends today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi while rallying in Odisha has said that the Opposition leaders are getting sleepless nights after they saw the rallies of the BJP.

While campaigning in the bastion of Odisha CM Naveen Patnaik, PM Modi asked the voters to choose wisely ahead of voting and even said that the BJP has ensured that people get entire money and not just 15 paise, while referring to the Rajiv Gnadhi’s analogy.


Earlier, only 15 paise of a rupee reached the poor, BJP ensured people get entire amount. If voted to power, BJP will set up a fisheries ministry, come up with schemes for welfare of fishermen,” said PM Modi while addressing the crowd.

PM Modi targeted the Odisha government for not implementing the Ayushman Bharat scheme and said, “For 20 years you trusted Odisha's govt blindly but now the people of the state want change. Once we come to power in the state we will implement Ayushman Bharat Yojana.”

While the Opposition parties have alleged that BJD is a b-team of the BJP, Naveen Patnaik has openly criticized the leadership and policies of the BJP, and even PM Modi has called upon Patnaik and inculcated that the state demands a change.

Many BJD leaders like Jay Panda switched the sides and joined the BJP, after Naveen Patnaik alleged that they were involved in anti-party activities and now have been handed a ticket from the BJP itself. National Spokesperson Sambit Patra is also contesting from Odisha’s Puri.
