CR Patil said, “Congress divided the people after Indira's assassination and won 149 seats in Gujarat”.
Addressing the farmers in Navsari, Gujarat Pradesh BJP President CR Patil said that the Congress had won 149 seats by dividing the society. While in 2022, BJP won 156 seats without dividing the people.
According to a report in The Indian Express, CR Patil said that the Congress divided the people into Kshatriyas, Harijans, Adivasis and Muslims with the 'Kham' theory and won 149 seats.
He told the gathering, "It is Narendra Modi who has never divided the society and has followed the slogan of 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas'. Because of this we have won 156 seats only with your support and the popularity of Narendra Modi."
He also mentioned the 'PM Mitra Park' to be started in Navsari in this meeting and said that now the youth seeking employment will not have to go out of Navsari and more than 60 thousand people will get employment.
It may be mentioned here that CR Patil is a member of Lok Sabha from Navsari seat since 2009 and is once again contesting from here. Last time he won the election by more than 6.89 lakh votes.
Shaktisinh Gohil said, "Where are the 100 smart cities promised by the BJP in 2014?"
Reacting to BJP's election manifesto, Gujarat Pradesh Congress President Shaktisinh Gohil said, "BJP did not allow anyone to ask questions after making announcements for one and a half hours. This shows that the BJP is afraid of not opening the polls for what it has done in the last ten years."
" What happened to futures of rupee strengthening against the dollar? BJP made these promises in the 2014 election manifesto."
He questioned, “BJP's 2014 election manifesto also promised that more than 100 smart cities will be built. Where are these 100 smart cities today?”
Apart from this, Shaktisinh Gohil also raised questions on the issues of Ladakh, promises of giving jobs, promises to double farmers' income, rising inflation, hike in petrol-diesel-gas prices etc. and said that the BJP government has not been able to fulfill the promises made ten years ago.
