| Your fingers on EVM did what triggers of AK 47 couldn't do', PM Modi says in J-K | | |  Early Times Report
Kathua, Dec 13: Lauding the people of Jammu and Kashmir for the massive voter turnout during the first three phases of the assembly polls, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said their fingers on EVM machines did what triggers of AK 47 could not do.
"People are surprised that Jammu and Kashmir saw such a massive voter turnout. You all sent across a great message. Your fingers on EVM machines did what triggers of AK 47 couldn't do," he said at an election rally here.
Prime Minister Modi saluted the people of Kathua for bravely facing the bullets from across the border.
"Ceasefire violations happen regularly and I am amid people who bravely face the bullets. I am speaking at a place where Pakistan is on the other side but here are those who fearlessly face bullets," he added.
Urging the people to bring the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to power in the state, the Prime Minister said that he would return the blessings received from them in the form of development.
"One should not lose hope, one day a man comes who will spend his life to fulfill your dreams. In Jammu and Kashmir, I have met many people and received their blessings, will return them in the form of development," he said.
Prime Minister Modi also asked political pundits to stop guessing what the poll results will be, saying they can know that by having a look at the crowd gathered in his rally.
Taking the Congress head on, the Prime Minister said the former stabs the other party in the back when the elections come.
"What does Congress do when the elections come? Stab the other party in the back. Dynastic politics can never become the voice of the people. PDP comes and Congress comes in, NC comes, they again come in. Should we not remove Congress from here?" he asked.
In Jammu and Kashmir, after the successful conduct of three phases of polls, eyes are now set on the eight assembly seats of Srinagar, which are among the 18 assembly segments going to polls in the fourth phase tomorrow.
The fourth phase of elections holds key to the National Conference's bid to retain power in the state as it currently represents half of the 18 seats going to polls.
The campaigning for the fourth phase of polling ended yesterday. |
