Continuing his election campaigning spree, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi on 03 May, 2023 addressed mega public meetings in Mudbidri, Ankola and Baihongal in Karnataka. “May 10th, the day of the polls, is fast approaching. The BJP is determined to make Karnataka the top state and BJP’s resolve is to make Karnataka a manufacturing super power. This is our roadmap for the coming years,” PM Shri Modi said.
Shri Modi said, “The BJP aims to make Karnataka the leading state in terms of development, but the Congress has different intentions and desires to turn Karnataka into an ATM for their royal family.” PM Modi accused the Congress of taking a commission of 85% in every scheme, which he believes will set the state back by decades. Therefore, he urged the people of Karnataka to be cautious when considering the Congress.
‘Reverse Gear Congress’
Referring the grand old party as the ‘Reverse Gear Congress’, PM said, “Congress comes to the rescue of those who are arrested for conspiring to spread terror in Karnataka. Not only this, Reverse Gear Congress not only withdraws the cases registered against such anti-national people but also releases them.” He further stated that various sections of society unite to oppose such anti-national individuals, but the Reverse Gear Congress takes electoral help from them and runs in the opposite direction.

“Today, the whole world is paying respect to democracy and development in India. But the Reverse Gear Congress is defaming the country by roaming around the world. Karnataka which is moving on the path of peace and progress would never want someone to come and take it in reverse gear,” he added.

The BJP introduced the PM Matsya Sampada Yojana, the first-ever scheme for the welfare of the fishermen and the fisheries sector. Additionally, under the leadership of Yeddyurappa Ji and Bommai Ji, the Matsya Siri scheme has been implemented.”

I bow to the people of this vibrant city for showering me with affection that I will cherish for my entire life,” the PM had tweeted after the
roadshow.
The PM said, “We want to make Karnataka the number 1 state in investment, industry and innovation. We want to make Karnataka the number 1 in education, employment and entrepreneurship”.
The Prime Minister said the government is working to empower the farmers with a ‘Beej Se Bazaar Tak’ vision. Through new irrigation projects, and expansion of storage facilities.

The Prime Minister called upon the people of Karnataka to help India in achieving the status of the world’s third-largest economy in the years to come.
ANKOLA
During his second rally in Ankola, Shri Narendra Modi took a swipe at former Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah saying that the Congress leader was seeking votes in the name of his retirement from active politics. Shri Modi said that Congress always failed to fulfil promises and betrayed public and said that BJP fulfilled all the guarantees. He also referred to Congress as a ‘85% commission government’ through his speech.
Pointing to the Congress’ ‘Corruption First’ policy, the PM stated, Congress has developed such a system in the country that its coffers are always full of black money. And for this, the Congress prepared crores of people on paper, who were never born. Today I also want to inform the country and the people of Karnataka about this ‘fake name scam’ of the Congress. The people of Karnataka have also suffered a lot in this fake name scam.”
