PM Modi in Sumerpur:

• People have decided... now our job is to win every booth in Rajasthan; our mantra should be 'mera polling booth, sabse mazboot'.
• Congress knows it has lost election, now they are contemplating who to hold responsible for defeat
• Congress has created so many divisions in society in the last 70 years. The Congress has spread the venom of casteism and has created urban-rural divide. How can such a party work for the benefit of the people.
• See what you have done in 70 years, before you question us about our 4.5 years.
• Yesterday the Supreme Court said that the government has a right to reassess Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi's income tax returns (National Herald Case). This was a big win for the government in the Supreme Court. Let us see how they will try to escape now.
• They are out on bail. Can you trust such people? Those who are out on bail...can they be trusted?
• They (Sonia and Rahul Gandhi) tried to hide every file and send investigators on a wild goose chase, but after much effort by agencies, they found a link - an accused. We have caught him now... You must have seen how we caught the middleman in the VVIP chopper scam and have brought him from Dubai to Delhi. Let us see what skeletons come out of the closet of the Congress.
• The middleman who kept all the secrets and paid bribes, let us see what happens when the secrets are not a secret anymore. This VVIP chopper deal will go a long way.

Addressing a press conference in Rajasthan, Amit Shah said:

• The campaigning for elections in Rajasthan and Talangana end today.
• BJP has done very well in all elections after coming to power in 2014, under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi.
• The BJP has campaigned strongly in all 5 states and we are confident of a win in these states.
• BJP has held more than 200 rallies in these 5 states, and people have seen the good work done by the BJP.
• The Congress has done nothing but made allegations through the entire election campaign. The Congress has tried to do negative politics in Rajasthan.
• Congress tried to fight elections on the basis of caste issues and dynasty; while the BJP is fighting elections on the state development and upliftment of the people.
• People will shun caste politics and family-based parties and will vote for a government that is focused on progress and development.
• The BJP has more than doubled that amount of funds sent to Rajasthan, when compared to what the UPA government had allocated for the state. It shows our focus on development and how much more the BJP is doing for Rajasthan.
• The BJP has helped Rajasthan emerge from being a 'BIMARU' state to a progressive state.
• To continue our good work in Rajasthan, we need the blessing of the people of Rajasthan.
• After seeing the way campaigning went on in Rajasthan, I am confident that the BJP will win Rajasthan with a full majority.
