Modi steps up attack on Opposition as campaign for Raj, MP intensifies
Hindustan Times|October 06, 2023
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday took a swipe at what he alleged was unbridled corruption allowed by the Congress, saying the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was taking the country forward but opposition parties were not happy at the progress.
Modi steps up attack on Opposition as campaign for Raj, MP intensifies

Speaking at rallies in the poll-bound states of Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh, Modi accused the Congress of dynasty politics, nepotism and misrule.

"Congress created fake documents using several names in government offices. This number is even bigger than the combined population of Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. These Il crores names were used to loot the rights of the poor and needy who really exist. Modi cleaned this corruption after coming to power in 2014," Modi said in Jabalpur.

In Rajasthan, where the BJP is hoping to come back to power in the assembly elections scheduled later this year, Modi targeted chief minister Ashok Gehlot on his home turf of Jodhpur.

"I have come here from a government programme where the new projects were inaugurated. But the chief minister was missing. Why was he missing? Because he has the firm belief that Modi will come and everything will be taken care of... he has so much faith and I also want to tell him, now you rest, we will handle things now," he said, after inaugurating infrastructure, tourism, and health projects worth 5,000 crore.

Top court cracks down on bulldozer justice by states

Describing a house as \"an embodiment of the collective hopes of a family or individuals' stability and security\", the Supreme Court on Wednesday laid down nationwide guidelines to curb arbitrary demolitions by state authorities, marking a significant moment in the battle against what has come to be known as \"bulldozer justice\"-- the practice of razing the properties of people accused of crimes, and, sometimes, of their families, often using earthmovers or bulldozers, without following due process.
