Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday sought to corner the Congress on its showpiece poll promise of "Nyay," demanding justice for the victims of 1984 anti-Sikh riots, the Bhopal gas tragedy and violence against Dalits.
While terror attacks shook the nation during Congress regime, the NDA's policy halted it, he said at Ramanathapuram.
A vote for DMK, Congress, and Muslim League combine would lead to higher taxes and less development and give a free hand to terrorists and rise of criminal elements in politics, he alleged.
"Those who cannot protect India can never develop the nation. When Congress and their allies were in power, terrorists were attacking the nation regularly.
City after city, there were blasts but congress remained helpless and silent."
"I want to ask the Congress party who will do Nyay to the victims of 1984 Sikh riots ?
...who will do Nyay to all the victims of anti Dalit (violence), who will do Nyay to the government of great M G Ramachandran ji, which was dismissed by the Congress just because one family did not like those leaders."
...who will do Nyay to the victims of the Bhopal gas tragedy, among the worst environmental disaster in India."
Blaming the DMK, Congress for vote bank politics in opposing a Bill on abolishing Triple Talaq in Parliament, Modi said, "These parties do not believe in dignity of women."
"When it comes to national security there can be no compromise. I assure my fellow Indians that we leave no stone unturned in protecting India and destroying forces of terror."
"Our guiding principle is nation first. Opposition believes in family first. If you go to Delhi, prime real estate has been used for memorials on members of only one family, it is as if no other person contributed to India except one family."
There were no memorials for past presidents like Dr S Radhakrishnan though in every town, Congress had named so many roads and buildings after "one family."
