Prime Minister Narendra Modi was in Ambala and Sonipat, Haryana, on Saturday, spearheading the BJP’s Vijay Sankalp rally, aiming to secure all ten seats in the state. Haryana goes to the polls on 25 May, in the sixth phase of the Lok Sabha elections.

He appealed for blessings from the people of Ambala for the next five years.

PM Modi said, “Haryana means courage and determination. It is the land of truth, but Congress has lied on this land. Haryana is ‘dhaakad’... Just like Haryana, Modi has run the government for 10 years in ‘dhaakad’ manner. Today, when you see Rafale aircraft in the skies of Ambala, don’t you feel proud? I have come to seek your blessings for the next 5 years...”

He also criticised the Congress for deceiving farmers. “We bought grains from farmers worth Rs 20 lakh crore in 10 years under MSP. This means three times more grain was bought from farmers. Congress had kept farmers’ dues of Rs 60,000 crores pending. We sent Rs 6.5 lakh crores to farmers’ accounts. We started the drone revolution in farming,” PM Modi asserted.
