Development is the main agenda of BJP, says PM Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said, BJP has given primary importance to the politics of development and for Karnataka as well, it has the agenda of fast-paced and all-round development.

The Prime Minister was interacting with BJP candidates of the upcoming Karnataka Assembly polls as well as office bearers and elected representatives through the Narendra Modi App.

The Prime Minister said, those who play politics on religion, caste and creed, have nothing to do with the politics of development. They just exploit emotions of some communities and forget them after elections.

Mr Modi alleged, the problems in Indian politics are due to the sins of the Congress, and unless the party's culture is removed, these cannot be solved.

The Prime Minister accused the Congress of spreading lies to win polls, saying that the ruling party in Karnataka is hiring foreign agencies to spread lies.

Saying that some people are creating propaganda that there will be a hung assembly, Mr Modi urged the people of Karnataka to elect a BJP government with absolute majority to give a fillip to development.
