'This country never takes the side of those who stand with terrorists, those fighting for the rights of 'demons', anti-nationals and those related with underworld activities,' Modi said.
Close on the heels of the arrest of former minister Amit Shah, Gujarat chief minister Narendra Modi today said that state has become a battleground for nationalists versus anti-nationalists forces.
"The war between the nationalists and anti-nationalists demons has started in Gujarat. But remember this is Gujarat, where anti-nationalists forces will be defeated", Modi said addressing a rally in Palitana town of Bhavnagar.
"If you think that you can frighten me, you should open your ears and listen, Modi will bow down to truth and will fight 100 times against falsehood," Modi said at a Van Mohatsav function.
"I want to tell the Delhi Sultanat (central government) that Gujarat is the inheritor of the legacies of Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel who provided leadership to win our freedom. Gujarat will win in this war of nationalism and anti-nationalism", he said.
"This country never takes the side of those who stand with terrorists, those fighting for the rights of 'demons', anti-nationals and those related with underworld activities," Modi said.
Modi's close aide Shah has been arrested by the CBI for his alleged role in the Sohrabuddin Sheikh fake encounter case who according to Modi was a criminal. Modi, throughout his address refrained from mentioning the CBI.
"Since the last eight years, there has been peace and development in the state. They are trying to destabilise the progress of Gujarat," Modi alleged.
"They are jealous of Gujarat's progress and so they are not trying to derail the progress of the state", he said.
Addressing a rally in Ahmedabad, Modi yesterday had said that the Congress has already accepted defeat in the forthcoming local body polls and will have to field CBI officers as their candidates.
