Reportedly the bjp is neither a party of prime minister Narendra Modi nor nitin gadkari but it is a party of workers who dedicated their lives to it, the Union minister said, hailing the contribution of party workers in his political journey. He said “The bjp is a party of its workers. Here, a PM is not born to another PM, mp is not born to an mp, mla is not born to an MLA". The nagpur mp recalled his days as a party worker when he visited the wardha district on scooter, riding `triple-seat’.
Meanwhile Vidarbha or eastern maharashtra elects 62 of the state’s 288 MLAs. The Union minister said “In 75 years of India’s history, the congress never gave priority to the development of the country’s rural areas. There were no roads in villages, no drinking water. congress never seriously thought of the development of rural India. Had the rural india got priority, farmers would not have committed suicide, there would not have been poverty in the villages".
Moreover the former bjp chief said the congress gave a call to eradicate poverty, but it did not happen in reality. Gadkari also said he was not opposed to reservations, but will never use religion and caste for politics. He added ‘Those who are socially, economically and educationally backward should get reservation to become economically and educationally capable’. Speaking at a rally in wardha assembly constituency, Gadkari claimed that in the last 10 years his ministry pumped about Rs 20,000 crore in various projects in wardha district alone. He also ruled that there was deterioration in the level of politics.
