Sonipat (Haryana), Sep 25: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday attacked the Congress, saying the grand old party and its allies do not like peace in Jammu and Kashmir and they want to bring back Article 370.
Bringing back Article 370 will be an insult to the sacrifices of the bravehearts who fought against terrorism in J&K, Modi said while addressing a poll rally in Gohana in this district.
Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini and other BJP leaders from the state were also present at the rally. Haryana goes to polls on October 5.
By mentioning J&K, where two of the three-phase polling is over, Modi targeted the Congress which is fighting in alliance with the National Conference (NC) in the Union Territory (UT).
Referring to the J&K polls, he said the Congress and its allies do not like peace there. A number of brave soldiers from Haryana are safeguarding the country's borders. There are many of these from the state who helped normalise the situation in J&K, he said.
When polls are peacefully held in J&K, brave mothers of Haryana feel happy, he said.
“But Congress and their associates do not like peace in Jammu and Kashmir. The Congress wants to bring back Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir. It again wants to promote terror and ‘algav' (separatism) there.
“For appeasement, the Congress wants to implement the agenda of the country's enemy in India. I am sure you will teach the Congress a lesson and I have full belief,” he said.
On the occasion, Modi also talked about the BJP's Haryana poll manifesto, which was released recently, in which the party has made various promises, including a monthly assistance of Rs 2,100 for women, if voted to power.
Polling for the 90-member Haryana assembly will be held on October 5 and the votes will be counted on October 8.
