"The PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi, Ujjwala Yojana and Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana are the indicators of goddess Lakshmi's arrival," the Defence Minister said.
Goddess Lakshmi does not visit people on a bicycle or an elephant but goes around sitting in a lotus, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said on Sunday, seeking to link peoples' prosperity and state's development with the BJP's poll symbol.
Addressing an election rally in Jagdishpur, Mr Singh said only the BJP is the true well-wisher of the poor and the weak. "Goddess Lakshmi never goes to anyone's house riding a cycle or an elephant or on (someone's) hand. Goddess Lakshmi visits people only sitting on a lotus," said Singh.
"The PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi, Ujjwala Yojana and Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana are the indicators of goddess Lakshmi's arrival," he added.
The defence minister said even international agencies have said only the BJP is running a good government in India.
