Calling the Congress anti-poor, the PM said, You are talking about levying 18 per
cent tax on salt, and also suggesting the same 18 per cent tax on luxurious cars,
cigarettes and liquor. How can it be done? What wisdom is this? Do you want to

take cancer to every household of the country. Whose coffers you want to fill?

Recalling the Machhu dam flood tragedy of 1979 in Morbi, the PM said he had spent
one month working in the town after the disaster as an RSS worker. When we
were lifting bodies, your grandmother (Rahul Gandhis grandmother Indira Gandhi)
had come to Morbi. In Chitralekha

He told the audience that it was for the first time that their men were in power
both at the Centre and the state. Dont let the opportunity go I know Gujaratis
are very pucca in their hisab-kitab, the PM said, seeking vote on the basis of
development.
From Morbi, Modi went to Gir Somnaths pilgrimage town of Prachi, 25 km from the
Somnath temple, where Rahul paid obeisance earlier in the day before kicking off
his Junagadh-Amreli leg of election campaign in Saurashtra region.
He said Indias first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru had reservations over the
reconstruction work of Somnath temple initiated by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. He
also said Rahul was now suddenly visiting Somnath dada (the temple deity).
Your great-grandfather, who was the countrys first Prime Minister, had expressed
displeasure with the reconstruction of the Somnath temple undertaken by Sardar
Patel. said Modi.
Destroyed and rebuilt several times in the past, Vallabhbhai Patel had envisioned
the reconstruction of the temple post-independence. The pran-pratishtha at the
existing temple was done by Rajendra Prasad in May, 1951.
He said the Congress had no future. It has become a burden on the country.
Neither does it have a leader, nor does it have any principle, nor is it connected to
the soil or the people.
At Palitana, Modis public meeting was organised at Lunsikui area on an open

ground, which has a large Muslim population. He paused his speech for a few
minutes during azaan.

Mr. PM instead of talking why dont you do something for the GST. Why do you
always run your mouth and do nothing about it. Stop playing sentimental songs
Indians are tired of this nonsense. We expect you to be constructive for the people
because youre servant of the people.
