With less than two weeks to go for the Lok Sabha elections, political leaders are addressing rallies and participating in roadshows as part of campaigning in various states across the country. PM Modi addressed rallies in Odisha, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. He hit out at Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu for pasting his sticker on the PM Kisan scheme and called him "U-turn babu".
In Odisha PM Modi said his government had taken measures to set up a ''chowkidar'' in space and asked people to vote for a government that can take concrete decisions and not just raise slogans. Launching his campaign in eastern India with a rally in Jeypore area of Odisha's Koraput district, he said the NDA government wouldn't have been able to do any development work in the country without the support of the people. He sought blessings from his supporters for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections and asserted that the NDA government has left no stone unturned to bring about development in the state.
Here are the highlights of PM Modi's election rallies in Odisha, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh
- The Odisha government just doesn't want to roll out the Ayushman Bharat yojana, under which the poor can get free medical assistance across the nation up to a sum of 5 lakh per year. Whether they work in Odisha, Delhi, Bengal or Gujarat, wherever the scheme is been adopted, they can get free medical treatment.
- But this government in Odisha is just not willing to take part in it... Either they don't care for the poor or they have their own reasons and arithmetic. Either way, it shows their lack of empathy for the people of Odisha.

- Do you want a mazboot (strong) government, or a majboor (helpless) government. Tell me, does India need a strong government and leadership or a weak and helpless one.
- Odisha will see its fastest pace of progress and development only when we have the same government both in the Centre and the state.
- The government has transformed Odisha in the last five years.
- Two days ago Odisha, along with the rest of India witnessed something great. India has now become a space power and that is something that the world has now noticed. India is now even doing chowkidari even in space.
- But while the world takes notice, and we all are proud of our scientists, there are those handful of people who are just always blaming, questioning, criticizing, insulting such feats.
- By doing this they only insult our scientists and our soldiers. Tell me, do you want such people who insult our forces and our scientists?
- It is a month now, and Pakistan is still busy counting the bodies of terrorists killed, and these people here only keep asking for proof.
- We are developing road infrastructure across Odisha and have ensure that there is seamless flow of funds to ensure that good roads reach the remotest villages in Odisha.
- You all must have noticed the development on road infrastructure in the state.
