Attacking the Left and the Congress in Kerala, Modi said the people of the state have endured hardship under governments plagued by corruption and incompetence.
Modi said due to the corrupt and incompetent government in Kerala, people are suffering, and they will benefit only if the cycle of consecutive LDF and UDF governments is broken.
"In the last elections, the people of Kerala made us the double-digit vote percentage party. And now, our destiny of double-digit seats here is not so far," Modi said.
He said both the LDF and UDF governments have turned a blind eye to the struggles of rubber farmers.
"Additionally, the state's law and order situation has significantly deteriorated," he said.
