MYSURU: In the run-up to the Lok Sabha elections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi hit out at the Congress party, calling it “sultan of tukde tukde gang”, during a public rally in Mysuru on Sunday.
He alleged that the Congress party “wants to weaken” the country, adding the latter’s “hate towards the nation” has “crossed the limit”.
“Congress party has become the sultan of tukde tukde gang. Their hate towards the country has crossed the limit. Congress wants to weaken the country.

PM Modi further escalated his attack on the Congress party and alleged, “Congress forms alliance with an organization involved in terrorist activities which is banned. Congress asks for proof of surgical attack from Army.”
“They refuse to accept Kashmir as our own. They disrespected Lord Ram. People of INDI alliance want to end Sanatan. They want to destroy Hindu religion. As long as Modi is there, no one’s plans will be fulfilled, this is Modi’s guarantee,” he added.
The Prime Minister also alleged that Congress has been indulging in appeasement politics
“Game of appeasement is rampant in Karnataka. Karnataka has been witnessing this, that Congress rewards people, who talk ill of the country, with election tickets. An ugly game of appeasement is being played in Karnataka! Can you give the reins of the country to the people openly playing the game of vote bank?,” he said.
“The elections of 2024 will decide the future of India not for 5 years but for 2047. 24/7 for 2047 every moment for India,” PM Modi said.
The election event was attended by BJP’s ally partner in National Democratic Alliance, Janata Dal (Secular) supremo and former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda, JD(S) leader HD Kumaraswamy, BJP senior leader BS Yediyurappa, Karnataka LoP R Ashoka and state president BY Vijayendra among others.
This was the first rally by PM Modi ahead of polling for the Lok Sabha elections 2024 in 14 constituencies of Karnataka on April 26.
Karnataka is going to the polls in two phases. The 14 Lok Sabha segments in the southern parts of the state will vote on April 26 in the second phase, the remaining 14 constituencies in the northern parts will vote in the second phase on May 7 in the third phase. (ANI)
