Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday appealed the leaders of Congress, Samajwadi Party (SP) and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) not to drag his name into caste politics.
"Kripa karke, mein haath jodke vinti karta hu, ye jati ki rajneeti me mujhe mat ghasetiye. 130 crore log Mera parivar hai. (I request you with folded hands, don't drag me into caste politics. The 130 crore people of this country are my family)," Prime Minister Modi said while addressing a rally here.
"I had never spoken about my caste. Till the time the Opposition leaders hurled abuses on me, the country didn't know my caste. But I am thankful to 'Behenji' (Mayawati), Akhilesh, Congress and the 'Mahamilawati', that they are openly talking about my backwardness,"
"Meri jaati to itni choti hai, gaon mein ek-adh ghar bhi nahi hota hai. Mai to pichda nahi, ati-pichde mein paida hua hu, aap mere munh se bulwa rahi ho isliye bol raha hu… Jab mera desh pichda (backward) hai to agda(forward) kya hota hai. Mujhe to pure desh ko agda banana hai," he added.
During the poll rally, Prime Minister emphasized that terrorism is the biggest issue in today's world.
"It is the biggest threat for India. It has been the biggest target of terrorism. Various terror outfits are still there in Pakistan (Aatank ki factory in Pakistan me chal Rahi Hain),"
PM Modi Said is BSPA has a formula for tackling terrorism? Did he once say anything about terrorism in the Lok Sabha elections? They had thrown 100 cases of misbehavior against Modi, but did they give 10 crores of words against terrorism? Why is this? People of SP and BSP should clarify whether they are afraid of terrorists or they remain calm to save them. Are those who are dreaming to become prime ministers, have they made a plan to strengthen the country or to protect our soldiers?
