New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday while addressing a rally in Purulia ahead of the West Bengal Assembly elections replied to Mamata Banerjee’s ‘Khela hobe’. He said, “Didi bole khela hobe, BJP bole chaakri hobe. Didi bole khela hobe, BJP bole vikas hobe. Didi bole khela hobe, BJP bole shiksha hobe….Khela shesh hobe, vikas aarambh hobe.”
First, the Left govt & then TMC govt didn’t let industries develop here. The kind of work that should’ve been done for irrigation, didn’t take place. I know the problems faced in rearing livestock due to less water. TMC govt was busy in its ‘khel’ by leaving farming on its own, said PM Modi.
These people have given Purulia a life riddled with water crisis. They have given Purulia, migration. They have given the poor of Purulia, discriminatory governance. They have given Purulia an identity of being one of the most backward areas of the country, PM Modi added.
Bengal made up its mind long back. It’s been saying ‘Lok Sabha mein TMC half aur iss baar poori saaf’. Seeing this determination, didi is taking out her frustration on me. But for us, she’s a daughter like crores of daughters of India. Respect for them is part of our culture, PM Modi Further said
That is why we were concerned when didi got injured. I pray to God that her leg injury heals soon, added PM Modi.
