Vijayapura: At the time when the Opposition parties are blaming the Modi Government for the price rise in the country, BJP National General Secretary, C. T. Ravi said that if someone has to be blamed for the price rise then it should be China which spread Covid pandemic across the world.
“Blame China and Covid for the price rise not Modi Government,“ he said at the press conference in Sindagi town on Monday October 25. Ravi, who had come to campaign for the party candidate, Ramesh Bhusnur, claimed that the prices were under control in the country before the nation was hit by Covid pandemic. It is not just India, but even the entire world is suffering because of Covid pandemic and prices have risen across the globe, he said and hoped that the situation will not remain the same for long.
He claimed that in order to give relief to the farmers from rising prices of fuel, the Modi Government increased the subsidy to Rs. 1700 on rach bag of fertilisers.
Accusing the Congress of spreading canards, Ravi said that the party which is master in lying, has nothing else to say but to keep blaming the BJP. “It is the same Congress which had called Covid vaccine fake, but the very Congress leaders stood in queue to take the vaccine,” he said. Ravi said that the Congress is making allegations against the BJP as the party is frustrated after losing a series of elections in the country.
Describing Congress as the party that stood for the terrorists, he said that there was a time when the party was protecting the terrorists by feeding them Biryani. “The Congress leaders were shedding tears for the death of a terrorist but the Modi Government is tough against terrorists. Today, we will kill four terrorists if they kill our one soldier,” Ravi said.
On Adani, Ambani getting richer during Modi rule
Refuting the allegations that corporate giants such as Ambani and Adani have become richer only during the Modi government, Ravi said that these people have been wealthy for decades. “Many pharmaceutical companies have also become rich during Covid pandemic. Moreover, the Modi Government is not working for such rich people. Tell me, does a scheme such as Ayushman Bharat is meant for common people or Ambani,” he asked.
MLC, Arun Shahapur, Former MLA Appu Pattanashetty and other party leaders were present.
