Campaigning ends for fourth phase, PM Modi raises pitch for national security

Live Mint  

New Delhi: Raising the pitch for national security ahead of the fourth phase of elections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said he had asked scientists to devise technology to shoot satellites in space, even as the former Congress-led government was afraid to do so. Addressing a rally in Sitapur in Uttar Pradesh ahead of the fourth phase of elections on 29 April, Modi took a dig at the former Congress-led government and said the Congress was scared of other countries, but for him, ‘the country came first’. Terming GST as the Gabbar Singh Tax, Gandhi said, “Not a single youth in the country can say that they have got employment because unemployment rate in the country is highest in 45 years. In 70 years nobody did something as foolish as demonetisation and Gabbar Singh Tax.” Alleging that the Prime Minister had lied to the country, Gandhi said: "Narendra Modi has lied to the nation for the last five years.
