Published by Webster

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday dubbed the Congress a vine which has no roots or branches and sucks dry those who support it, and asked people to be wary of the opposition alliance in realising the goals of `Viksit Bharat` and `Viksit Maharashtra`. Modi, who addressed two election rallies in Maharashtra on Saturday – first in Nanded, followed by Parbhani – also said the Congress has accepted its defeat even before the Lok Sabha poll results are out, and took a swipe at Rahul Gandhi, saying that just as he lost from Amethi in 2019, the “Congress` sahabzade” will lose the Wayanad parliamentary seat this time.
