Congress is trying to defame Gujarat but I will tell them- the more the dirt you throw, the more the Lotus will shine!

Shri Modi addresses people across 53 places of Gujarat through 3D technology 

Congress has only embraced negative politics. Not only Gujarat leaders but also their national leaders are using very poor language: CM 

Development is not in Congress’ nature. If someone is fighting the elections on development, Congress does not know how to counter: Shri Modi 

You say only 1 voice heard in Gujarat? If there is someone who says development in Gujarat due to 6 crore people, it is me. There are more than 5000 schemes named after your father, your grandmother, you great grandfather's name: Shri Modi 

Rahul Baba Zuban Sambhal Ke Boliye. You language does not suit democracy: Shri Modi 

Some people seeing Sir Creek issue with narrow eyes. Its nothing to do with Rajneeti, it’s an issue of Rashtraniti for me: Shri Modi 

You have tried to defame Gujarat. I tell you- the more the dirt you throw, the more the Lotus will shine: Shri Modi’s clear message to anti-Gujarat Congress party 

Madam Sonia ji says in Gujarat innocents are in jail but it is your CBI that sends innocents to jail in Gujarat. Even the courts have released them: Shri Modi 

Mills shut down in Congress rule. Many lost jobs, many had to end their lives. Gujarat's textile industry got ruined. Your eyes were on mill land. Your Textile Ministry was interested in making money on mill land: CM 

Tell SC to make SIT to look into what mill workers are doing, is there a package. Look into whether land has been sold transparently. Have your textile ministers made money? Asks Shri Modi 

Mrs. Sonia ji said Congress gave 50% reservation to women. Its not 50 but 33%! We passed a law to give 50% reservation to women, it was discussed for 3 days. But your Governor who is a woman has not signed it for 2 years. You made Raj Bhawan a Congress Bhawan: Shri Modi

The Chief Minister shattered the lies spread by Mrs. Sonia Gandhi on various issues be it the issue of the Government of India bringing in the 108 ambulance service, the power and water situation in Gujarat, the law & order situation in Gujarat or the state of unemployment in Gujarat.

Shri Modi stated that it was Mr. Rajiv Gandhi who set up the initiative to clean the Ganga but the Ganga is not yet clean. On the other hand the Gujarat Government has transformed the Sabarmati River. “If there is a diamond in your hand you make it coal. We turn coal into a diamond!” he declared. 

Speaking on the delicate issue of Sir Creek, Shri Modi said that for him it is not a matter of Rajniti but a matter of Rashtraniti. He explained the importance of Sir Creek and stressed on the fact that Sir Creek is essential to the safety of India. He added that the region also has oil and gas reserves that can be used by India.

On Mr. Rahul Gandhi’s statement that only 1 voice is heard in Gujarat. Shri Modi said that if there is a person who says the development in Gujarat is due to 6 crore people of Gujarat, it is him. He further said, “There are more than 5000 schemes named after your father, your grandmother, great grand father's name. Have you spoken about anyone else? You say my father struggled, my grandmother but did others not struggle?” The Chief Minister said that we couldn’t forget that there were many people who struggled for the nation and he asked Mr. Rahul Gandhi to think 50 times before making such allegations of 1 voice being heard- “Rahul Baba Zuban Sambhal Ke Boliye. You language does not suit democracy” he avowed. He further spoke that he was born in a family where his father was not even a Sarpanch and it was the love of the people with which he has grown up.

The Chief Minister spoke at length about the development initiatives in Gujarat. “We want to take Gujarat to newer heights. Dholera SIR is coming up. It will be like 2 Delhis! There was Gir, Kutch everything but you never thought of developing tourism. Today our tourism growing faster than that of India!” he declared. 

Shri Modi spoke at length about the Congress culture of misusing Article 356, their following of ‘Aaya Ram Gaya Ram politics’ and their misuse of CBI. “Madam Sonia ji says in Gujarat innocent people are in jail, but its your CBI that sends innocents to jail in Gujarat. Eve Courts have released them now” he opined. Shri Modi punctured the Congress President’s lie on the shutting of mills and he called for a White Paper and Supreme Court monitored SIT to look into the closure of mills, the condition of those who lost jobs in the wake of the mill closure and the profits made by the Congress Textile Ministers once the mill land was sold.

He demolished Mrs. Sonia Gandhi’s lie that it was Rajiv Gandhi who brought 50% reservation for women at the local level and shared that the figure stood at 33%. But, he went on to say that when the Gujarat assembly passed the Bill for 50% women reservation at local levels it was the Congress appointed Governor who, ironically being a woman has refused to sigh it for over 2 years. “You made Raj Bhawan a Congress Bhawan” he avowed.

To those who are defaming Gujarat Shri Modi affirmed, “You have tried to defame Gujarat. I tell you- the more the dirt you throw, the more the Lotus will shine.” He asked the Centre not to treat Gujarat as an enemy state. He made a strong appeal to the people to go out in large numbers and give a thumping mandate to the BJP.
