Uttarakhand Assembly Elections | Upcoming elections are a fight between the builders of the state and its adversaries: PM Modi

Mr Modi termed previous Congress governments in the state and at the Center as “double break” governments

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on February 7 said that the upcoming assembly elections in Uttarakhand is a fight between those who created the state and those who “conspired to block its construction”.

Virtually addressing a rally in Haridwar, he accused the previous Congress governments in Uttarakhand and the Center of not allowing development in the state as it was “built against the wishes of the party”.

Mr Modi termed the previous Congress governments in the state and at the Center as “double break” governments.

He alleged that the non-implementation of the Rishikesh-Karnprayag railway line during the Congress rule was a vivid example of his “anti-development approach”.

“The Congress has committed the sin of throttling the dreams of Uttarakhand. The people of the state will not forgive this. Shri Modi appealed to the people to remember the “sins of Congress” while casting their vote on February 14. Vote for a “double engine” government under the youth leadership of Pushkar Singh Dhami so that major development projects continue uninterrupted. He urged the people.
