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.
