Mungeli, November 13

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday hit out at the Congress over corruption and said the countdown had begun for the exit of its government in Chhattisgarh.

Addressing a rally in Mungeli district of Chhattisgarh, Modi also took a dig at the purported power-sharing agreement between Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel and Deputy CM TS Singh Deo, and said when the Congress could ditch its own senior leaders, then it is certain that it would cheat people and not keep the promises made to them.

"The Congress has understood that its time is over in Chhattisgarh. Some journalist friends from Delhi and political analysts have told me that the chief minister (Baghel) is himself going to lose (election from Patan seat),” Modi said.

Modi said the Congress hates him so much that it abuses the entire OBC community in his name.

The Congress can do anything for vote bank and appeasement, he added.

Polling for 20 out of the total 90 assembly seats in Chhattisgarh was held on November 7. Voting in the remaining 70 seats will be held on November 17.
