“Mothers and sisters have come in a large number here. your struggle and the challenges you face to nurture your family, Modi has seen this in his house. These days big and powerful people in the country and abroad have united to remove Modi,” he said.

“But, because of Nari Shakti and Maatru Shakti’s blessings and Suraksha kavach (safety armour), Modi is able to move on fighting challenges,” he said addressing campaign rallies in Chikkaballapura and here.
