Prime Minister Narendra Modi today once again launched a scathing attack on the Congress party and said whenever the Congress is in power the confidence of the maoists and the terrorists boosts up.
Addressing an election rally in Lohardaga, he said in Congress the party thinks of only one family and is dedicated to them while the others are just their vote banks.
He said according to the Congress party there is no other jewel in India and it never thought about Bhagwan Birsa Munda Bhimrao Ambedkar or Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. In the Congress party every decision is taken in the interest of Namdaar family and is never worried for the welfare of others.
Mr Modi said even the tribals were used as just vote bank by the Congress during whose tenure attacks also took place on the traditions and culture of the tribals. ” I want to assure you that no Palm (Congress Symbol) can take the land, forest and rights of tribals,” he said that many steps have been taken to protect their rights.
Under the Congress party the tribals did not have right over their minerals as it belonged to the industrialists and said the Congress party gave the bauxite mines to the mafia.
He said the tribals gave their land and forest and in return got nothing however under the present regime the money received from minning is being used for the development of tribals and under district mining funds in a small state like Jharkhand alone for development of tribal areas Rs 4000 crore was given which earlier went to the industrialists.
Mr Modi said the Congress party wants to keep the poor poorer and use them for their vote bank. He also pointed that after the Congress party formed government in Chhattisgarh it stopped the Ayushman Bharat Yojana while in Chhattisgarh Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan the PM Kissan Yojana was not being effectively implemented and alleged that if the strength of the Congress party will increase that money going in the accounts of the tribals and farmers will stop.
Mr Modi said money which has been given by the government in the accounts of the pepple will be provided to them life long and no one can take back. He said that if the poor will be made strong than poverty will be ultimately removed from the nation.
The Prime Minister said that for the benefits of the tribals the MSP on the forest produce has been increased while number of products has also been increased.
He said now the farmers can also earn money by taking up bamboo cultivation and also announced that after the NDA government comes into power the farm labourers and tribal farmers will get pension. (UNI)
