Karnataka Election 2023: PM Modi also hit out at the Congress on the issue, saying when the party's warranty itself has expired, its guarantees have no meaning.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi today addressed through virtual mode tens of lakhs of BJP workers exhorting them to strengthen booth-level campaigning for the coming Karnataka Assembly elections, to win with majority, and made a strong pitch for ending "revdi culture" (culture of distributing freebies).
PM Modi also hit out at the Congress on the issue, saying when the party's warranty itself has expired, its guarantees have no meaning.
For Karnataka polls, Congress has announced 'guarantees' that include 200 units of free power to all households, 10 kg of rice free to every member of BPL household (Anna Bhagya), Rs 2,000 monthly assistance to woman head of every family (Gruha Lakshmi), and Rs 3,000 every month for graduate youth and Rs 1,500 for diploma holders (both in the age group of 18-25) for two years, on coming to power.
The Prime Minister said states are getting immersed in debt because of freebies, and emphasised that the country and the governments cannot be run like this.
