TNN, Mandla :Slamming Congress leadership for their high-handedness and total disregard for public good, BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi said that “Congressmen behave as though they do not inhabit planet Earth but have descended from Mars”.Terming the Congress manifesto a dhoka patra, Modi urged the crowd to beware of the party hand which will wipe off their belongings after the handshake is over. Election 2014 is all about rising inflation and corruption, Modi said as he called for a “Congress mukt Bharat” while addressing the Bharat vijay rallies in Mandla and Balaghat constituencies on Friday.”It is first time since Independence when public is confronted with such gigantic proportion of corruption and loot,” he declared.Taking a swipe at Congress ka shahzada, who was in the tribal dominated constituency of Mandla five days ago to interact with handpicked all women audience, Modi mocked the purpose of the entire exercise. “What did he talk about,” he asked the “tribal mothers and sisters” present at the venue. The same leader, he pointed out, had grabbed power in 2009 after promising electorate that the government will do away with inflation within 100 days of its rule. Have they done it?Charging Congress leadership with an attitude laden with extreme arrogance Modi said an ahankari (egoistical) party which has scant regard for public sentiments or democratic norms has no right to rule the country. Those who govern are expected to give an account of their deeds to the public. “Has the Delhi government taken the trouble of coming to you and telling you what it has achieved so far?” he asked. The leader finally dealt the ace to woo audience in the predominantly tribal belt, officially listed as one of the most backward districts in the country, by highlighting special measures for tribal welfare initiated during the Vajpayee government.
