Addressing an election meeting in Dwarka here today, ahead of December 4 Delhi assembly polls, BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate said the Congress has frequently changed its names, symbols and policies but not intentions.
"The Congress party has admitted that God has created it to rule. They think they are born to rule and people are in our pocket...Where will they go...Sometimes show them the fear of Modi...And gain votes. Congress people are used to enjoying the rule...
Modi also launched an attack on Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, accusing him of not uttering a single word despite the price rise that has hit the poor and common man.
"During Atal Bihari Vajpayee's regime inflation was at 3.9 per cent. Now under an economist Prime Minister, it is more than 11 per cent. If price rise continues to rise like this, what will the poor eat. The Prime Minister is not ready to take the blame for price rise," he said.
"Unka ahankar itna hai, mehngai par ek shabd bolne ko tayar nahin hain...Mehngayi ka M tak nahin bole. Maro to maro aap ka naseeb (Their arrogance is such that they are not ready to utter a single word, not even the M of Mehngayi. You die, it is your fate," he said.
