Ambedkar was passionate about ensuring proper irrigation facilities to every part of India. BJP in Gujarat has ended the ‘Tanker Raj’, says PM Modi
In a direct attack to Congress party leader and lawyer Kapil Sibal, Prime Minister Narendra Modi lashed at him for linking 2019 Lok Sabha elections with Ram Mandir issue. He was speaking in Dhandhuka on Wednesday.
While the rally started two hours late, due to extreme weather, Modi not just mentioned about 'Vikas' but also said that one family did great injustice to Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar and Sardar Patel. When Pandit Nehru's influence of the Congress was complete, the Congress ensured that Dr Ambedkar found it tough to join the Constituent Assembly.
Further talking about 'Tanker Raj', Modi said, "Ambedkar was passionate about ensuring proper irrigation facilities to every part of India. BJP in Gujarat has ended the 'Tanker Raj.' Tanker business was firmly in the hands of Congress leaders and their families." "We are in the process of installing solar pumps in farms and rooftops. In near future you will be given free electricity. It is not a lollypop and one time benefit but will have an effect to coming generations," he said. Referring to what Sibal submitted in the Supreme Court on Tuesday Modi said, "Yesterday in Supreme Court, Sibal was arguing for the Babri Masjid. He is entitled to do that but is it right for him to say postpone hearing till 2019? Why does he have to link a Ram Mandir with elections. Is such thinking proper. Now, Congress links Ram Mandir with elections. They are least bothered about the nation." Raking up the issue of triple talaq, Modi reminded the people of Dhanduka as part of the Gujarat Vikas Rally, that when the matter was in Supreme Court and the central government had to put their stand in an affidavit, many commented that Modi will remain silent for UP elections.
"People told me not to speak on the matter or else it would have an impact on elections. But I said that I will not be silent as everything is not about elections. When it comes to the rights of women, I will speak. The issue was pending since the time of Rajiv Gandhi but it was for BJP, that now we have brought a law too." In India, every now and then elections are there. If we take decisions based on polls, how will India progress. I would say let us have elections of LS and Vidhan Sabha together," he said.
