Modi claims Congress will not win even 50 seats in Lok Sabha polls
Millennium Post Delhi|May 12, 2024
While addressing multiple election rallies in Odisha, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday launched a dual attack, claiming the Congress will not win even 50 seats in the Lok Sabha elections and throwing a bold challenge to Odisha CM and BJD supremo Naveen Patnaik to name all districts of Odisha without the aid of written notes.
Modi claims Congress will not win even 50 seats in Lok Sabha polls

PM Modi claimed that Congress will not be able to get the Opposition party status after the polls.

Addressing election rallies in Kandhamal, Bolangir and Bargarh Lok Sabha seats, Modi claimed that Odisha’s ‘asmita’ (pride) is in danger and the BJP will protect it, while asserting that a “double engine” government  of the saffron party will be formed in the state and a “son or daughter of the soil who understands Odia language and culture” will be made the chief minister.

Attacking the BJD, he called for ousting from power “those responsible for keeping people poor despite the state having bountiful natural resources”. “Congress will not be able to get 10 per cent seats to become principal opposition in the Lok Sabha. They will not win even 50 seats,” Modi claimed.

Taking a dig at Rahul Gandhi, without taking his name, the PM said: Recalling the achievements of the previous BJP government at the Centre under Atal Bihari Vajpayee, he said that on this day 26 years ago, Pokhran tests were conducted (in 1998), and it enhanced the image of the country across the globe.
