Modi in Himachal

New Delhi: Addressing an election rally in Himachal Pradesh's Kangra, Prime Minister Narendra Modi likened the Congress to termites, saying it must be totally finished off as he seeks three-fourths majority for the Bharatiya Janata Party in the state.

"I haven't come here to ask you to make BJP win. I have come here to ask you to give it a 3/4th majority. There should be no polling booth that elects the termite named Congress," Modi said.

Hitting out at the Congress, he said the party 'is getting the fruits of its sins. If people are angry today, it is due to its own deeds'.

"People who were habitual looters and have had to return their loot today won't let me be at peace. Even you know that.

"Congress will observe 'blackmoney day' on November 8 and burn my effigies. It is angry because I am fighting corruption. They don't know Modi is disciple of Sardar Patel and won't be cowed down ," the PM said.

He said the 'pair of Modi and Dhumal (BJP's CM candidate) will take Himachal to new heights of development'.

"There was maximum development in Himachal when Atal ji was in Delhi and Dhumal ji was here in Himachal. You have a chance again," he said.
