PM Modi strikes right chord with farmers in Koppal
Prime Minister Narendra Modi struck the right chord with farmers in drought-hit Koppal district while addressing the second election rally of the day on Tuesday. He urged farmers to ask Karnataka CM about irrigation project the government promised and money spent on it.
PM Modi said, "I urge the people of Karnataka to ask a question to the present Karnataka CM. What happened to the irrigation project they promised? Where did the money for the project go?". PM Modi was talking about Krishna-B irrigation project promised for farmers in Koppal district.
He lamented that even though there are two dams near Koppla district, farmers are struggling to get a drop of water. He asked, " Why is it that farmers of Karnataka face a shortage of water? The Congress government, being in 'sleep mode', is doing nothing to address their problems. In five years, they ruined the farmers of Karnataka."
In a relentless attack against the Congress and Gandhi family, he said, "BJP believes in 'Rashtra Bhakti' and serving the society. Our only mantra is 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikaas'. But for the Congress party, only one family means everything."
"Congress only thinks about its own welfare. They do not care about farmers," he added.
He assured that BJP is committed to the welfare of farmers and to increase MSP of notified crops by 1.5 times.
Besides, he promised Koppal will benefit from tourism project planned by the Centre. He said, " We are promoting tourism in Karnataka. We are connecting distant places through airways. To preserve the heritage of Indian culture, we have come up with Swadesh Darshan Yojana with the cost of Rs 5000 crore. It is an attempt to strengthen 'Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat."
"Protecting the girl child is our commitment. We believe in the mantra of 'Beta Beti Ek Samaan,' he said.
