MP polls 2023: ‘We build 4 cr houses with same devotion as Ram temple,’ says PM

As elections in Madhya Pradesh are around the corner, Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a rally in Satna on Thursday emphasized the government’s commitment to building 4 crore houses, comparing it to their dedication to building the Ram temple. “We build 4 crore houses with the same devotion as Ram temple,” Prime Minister Modi said. Targeting the opposition Congress party, the PM added, “During the Congress rule, there was much corruption all around that the dream of the poor to have a permanent house was shattered”.

Ramping up his electioneering for the Madhya Pradesh Assembly polls, PM Modi relaunched the attack against the Congress party in Satna. “Wherever Congress came into power, it brought only destruction”.

“An example of how Congress takes away the rights of the poor is the “Fake Beneficiary Scam”. Under the guise of 10 crore fake beneficiaries, Congress used to fill the pockets of its followers,” PM Modi added.
