Upbeat by the victory in polls to local bodies, Gujarat chief minister Narendra Modi today said half of the issues related to terrorism would have been solved if central agencies were used against Pakistan instead of Gujarat.

"Congress is using all the investigation agencies and intelligence agencies like the RAW, NIA, CBI and IB against Gujarat and me," Modi told a rally in Ahmedabad.

"The energy used by them against Gujarat for the last one and half years, if it was directed toward Pakistan half of the problem of terrorism would have been solved," Modi said, adding that he was saying this with full responsibility.

"You (Centre) have misused constitutional bodies, you have used all the ways of oppression, but people of Gujarat have shown that they do not fear this kind of suppression," Modi said.

BJP had made the arrest of junior home minister and close aide of Modi, Amit Shah's arrest by CBI in Sohrabuddin fake encounter case, as its core issue in local body elections.

"If you try to disturb the democratically elected government, people will not tolerate it anywhere in the country," Modi said.

"I urge them (Congress ruled UPA government) that if they have taken this route to gain power in Gujarat they should leave it and fight in democratic manner. If you have some problem with me then come and talk to me," Modi said.

He said the local body elections have changed the mindset of many classes of the society that believed for last 60 years that only Congress can ensure better future for them.

"Poor class of society has put their faith in BJP this time," Modi said.

Modi said the tribal belt of central and south Gujarat, where BJP has been facing defeat for the last 60 years, have also shown positive results for the party in these elections.

"Over 100 Muslim candidates of BJP have won elections this time which also shows that the minority community has voted for the BJP," Modi said.
