BJP East Delhi candidate, Gautam Gambhir on AAP candidate Atishi: I condemn what has happened. I am from a family where I have been taught to respect women. I didn't know CM Arvind Kejriwal would stoop so low. I have filed a defamation case. (ANI)
Rahul Gandhi: The AAP cannot oust Narendra Modi from the throne, only the Congress can. And that is why you should vote for the Congress party.
Rahul Gandhi: Modiji claims that he has come up with many central schemes to alleviate unemployment – Make in India, Start-up India, Mudra Yojana, etc. etc. Then how is it that the unemployment figures in India are the highest in 45 years!
Rahul Gandhi: On the other hand, there is Mr. Modi and Mr. Shah, who say anything without thinking. I just saw an AAP poster saying, " We try to work, and they stall !". I want to say, if you are running a state government, you should take into account the problems of MSMEs and figure out a resolution for them.
Rahul Gandhi: I agree that the Congress had committed a few blunders. Everybody does. But, at least we admit. And whatever we promise, we deliver. We do not make huge claims, but we live up to our promises.
Rahul Gandhi: In Delhi, it was the AAP which said that Arvind Kejriwal should be made CM; while Narendra Modi should be made PM. It was the AAP that opened the doors to Narendra Modi in Delhi.
Rahul Gandhi: NYAY scheme will not only empower the poor, it will empower the small and medium businesses that were ruined by the roll out of GST.

PM Modi: The Congress never took the issue of national security seriously. We will eliminate terrorists; we will cross the border, and hunt them down.

Whenever there was a debate regarding reservation, there were always squabbles. But BJP's culture is different. We are people who work for the unity of the nation. Which is why we provided 10 percent EWS quota without making any difference to the SC/ST reservation, because our mantra is 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas': PM Modi
Remember, those who insulted Babasaheb Ambedkar at every step, for them 'Behenji' (Mayawati) is asking for votes: PM Modi
Traitors within the nation are also being punished... this is how we have decided to end terrorism and Naxalism. Which is why the nation believes the 'Chowkidar': PM Modi
These people are against speaking on terrorism and national security. If the nation is unsafe, how will the nation develop? You saw what happened in Sri Lanka: PM Modi
After five phases of elections, the situation is such that Congress is out of the field without even playing the match: PM Modi
