His remarks indicated that the leader will be the CM if BJP and allies get a second term
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday sounded bugle for the election to the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly and appealed people to vote for a majority government to enable it to take strong decisions. He asked the people of Maharashtra to bring back Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis to power. He noted that Fadnavis managed to run the government smoothly and provided a stable government to the people in the last five years despite the BJP not having a complete majority on its own.
In his address at the rally in Nashik as part of the conclusion of the 'Maha Janadesh Yatra' undertaken by Fadnavis to reach out to masses ahead of the Assembly polls, Modi said Maharashtra had not progressed as it should have."Fadnavis provided a stable government with a push for development of the state. He worked with complete dedication. It is now Maharashtra's turn to make use of his leadership qualities," Modi added.
Modi's remarks are seen as an indication that Fadnavis will be the Chief Minister if BJP and allies get a second term.
Modi have his own example and said people of Gujarat had given him an opportunity to be the longest-serving chief minister of that state. "The manner in which I served the state with commitment and devotion, Fadnavis is also doing the same. Like me, he too will benefit," he added.
Referring to the Centre's decision to revoke Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir, Modi said it was the wish of 130 crore Indians. The prime minister asked people to make efforts to create a "new paradise" in Jammu and Kashmir.
Modi said the slogan "Kashmir hamara hai [Kashmir is ours]" had changed to "Kashmir banana hai [Kashmir has to be built]". "We have to hug each Kashmiri, create a new paradise there," he noted.
He said the decision has been taken to save the Kashmiris from the cycle of violence, terror and separatism. They suffered for 40 years due to Delhi's (previous Congress-led governments) wrong policies and 42,000 people were killed. ''This decision is for the unity of India. This decision is going to be the medium of fulfilling the aspirations and dreams of the people of Jammu and Kashmir." he opined.
Without naming former Congress president Rahul Gandhi, Modi said the Congress leaders are making comments that are being used by other countries and terror outfits against India. He attacked Opposition parties for politicising the actions of the Centre.
''"Whenuntry is united over the decision on Kashmir, Congress and NCP leaders have not cooperated," Modi said.
