“In the Lok Sabha elections, Rajasthan is blowing the conch sound of BJP’s huge victory. Today at around 12 noon in Churu, I will get a chance to meet my family members and take their blessings,” stated the PM in a post on X. This will be PM Modi’s second visit to the state in the span of three days.
Earlier on Tuesday, PM Modi addressed the Vijay Shankhnad rally in Kotputli, criticizing the Congress by stating, “This election is to fulfil the dream of ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’…Modi says to remove corruption…Congress and INDI alliance are not contesting this election for the country but for their own selfish motives…They say save the corrupt, Modi says remove corruption…This is the first election in which leaders of the Congress party are not talking about winning the elections themselves but are threatening the country that if BJP wins, the country will be on fire…”
