Congress seems inactive in Gujarat, but it is silently going to villages and towns and trying to convince people to vote against BJP: PM Modi
Due to Urban Naxals, we wasted 40-50 years of time before the construction of the Sardar Sarovar dam on the Narmada river. Today after various efforts, the construction of the Sardar Sarovar dam has been completed.

They have adopted a new methodology to spread poison in villages. We need to rethink our strategies to defeat them. I am confident that under CR Paatil's leadership, we will defeat Congress's strategy.

I need to alert you. This time Congress has played a new 'chal'. These Congress fellows are using their old tactics in place.Don't remain under impression if their conspiracy..their plans are not reported. They are not saying it but they are doing 'khatla baithaks' in villages. We need to remain alert even if they do not do rallies, sabhas or press conferences.

Gujarat, which was in negative in agriculture growth, is now registered growth 9 to 10%. I remember people used to demand that at least ensure electricity supply once in the evening, now there is water supply 24 hours. Urban Naxals made so many efforts to put hurdles in Sardar Patel's dam. Now, Sardar Sarovar dam has got over.
PM Narendra Modi
