Haryana will create history by forming BJP govt for third time: CM Nayab Singh Saini

Palwal (Haryana) [India], October 2 : Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini stated that Haryana will make history by electing a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government for a third consecutive term in the state.
"On the 5th [of August], Article 370 was abolished by PM Modi, and on the same 5th, the foundation stone of the Ram Mandir was laid. Now, once again, the 5th is approaching. I assure you that on this 5th, Haryana will make history by forming a BJP government for the third time," Saini said at an election rally here on Tuesday.
During the same rally, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched an attack on the Congress party, reviving the "urban naxal" accusation. He pointed out that while Congress claims it will restore Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir (J&K), it has never mentioned reclaiming Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK).
PM Modi alleged that Congress is against the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya and has never fully implemented the Constitution in Jammu and Kashmir.
"We will vote for the safety of our daughters, employment, good infrastructure, and roads... Congress has only one agenda: the 'urban naxal' agenda. They (Congress) say they will reinstate Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir, but have never spoken about reclaiming PoK. This does not come from their mouths. Congress has divided Kashmir. They don't talk about bringing back PoK but want to restore Article 370. Pakistan's government has supported the Congress party. Congress is the most deceitful party," the Prime Minister said.
He further described Congress as the "biggest anti-Dalit party" in the country, alleging that it plans to end reservations, with Haryana being its "test state."
"The Congress has planned to abolish reservations... Haryana is their test state. But no one can end reservations as long as Modi and the BJP are here. They abuse me and [Haryana Chief Minister] Saini ji day and night," he added.
PM Modi accused Congress of polarising people for votes and of aiming to end reservations for Dalits and backward classes.
"Congress has only one agenda: maximum appeasement for votes. Today, Congress is claiming that it will end reservations for Dalits and backward classes. This is what they did in Karnataka. As soon as the Congress government was formed there, they took away reservations from Dalits and backward classes and gave them to their vote bank by declaring universities and institutions as minorities," he alleged.
Referring to the Hooda family, he criticised the opposition party for its internal conflicts within the state unit.
"The people here can see the infighting within Congress in Haryana. The most aggrieved by Congress are the Dalit, backward, and deprived communities. The Dalit community has decided that they will not be used as pawns to further the politics of the father and son," he added.
He also noted that Haryana has a history of electing the same party in the state as the one in power at the centre.
"You elected the BJP government in Delhi for the third time, and now you have decided to elect the BJP government here in Haryana for the third time as well," he said.
Haryana will go to the polls on October 5 to elect its 90-member state legislative assembly, with counting scheduled for October 8. In the 2019 elections, the BJP emerged as the largest party, securing 40 seats, while Congress won 30 seats.
