This is PM Modi's fifth visit this year to Rajasthan, where elections will be held in five months.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi today mocked the Congress in Rajasthan, raising questions about the stability of its government and also what he called its "guarantee formula" for state elections.
In an apparent reference to the Congress's five guarantees for Karnataka, where it won an election earlier this month, PM Modi said: "The Congress has a new formula of guarantees. But are they fulfilling their guarantees? Their guarantees will leave the country bankrupt."
He said people wondered where the money for welfare came from, but money was never the problem.
"Fifty years ago, the Congress guaranteed that it would remove poverty. But it turned out to be their biggest betrayal of the poor," PM Modi said at a rally in Ajmer.
