Lok Sabha Elections 2019: "When we have king, where is need for a king-maker": Ram Madhav told NDTV
With only two phases of voting left, campaigning is reaching a hectic pitch. Elections are yet to be held in 118 seats, with most of them in the crucial Hindi heartland. BJP chief Amit Shah is scheduled to address rallies in West Bengal, where the BJP is looking to come out on top against Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congress. Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will also address three rallies in West Bengal. Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has two rallies and a roadshow lined up in Haryana.
Here are the Highlights on the Lok Sabha Elections 2019:
Andhra Pradesh Chief minister Chandrababu Naidu after opposition leaders' meeting with Election Commission tells news agency ANI: "EC's job is to conduct elections in transparent manner, what we are asking for is, protect democracy, bring transparency. They agreed to some points, they are working. Let them work, again we will decide what to do."
West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee in Purulia says: "Money doesn't matter to me. That is why when Narendra Modi came to Bengal and accused my party of being Tolabaaz (toll collector), I wanted to give him a tight slap of democracy."
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra addresses rally in Haryana
At a rally in Haryana's Ambala to campaign for the national election, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra criticises Prime Minister Narendra Modi's comments against her father Rajiv Gandhi, saying that "the same kind of arrogance caused the downfall of Duryodhana".
Likening the Prime Minister to the main villain of the epic Mahabharata, the Congress leader warns that the country has never forgiven arrogance.
"They insult my family when they don't get any other issue. This country has never forgiven arrogance. History is proof of this. Mahabharat is also proof of this. This kind of arrogance was in Duryodhana too. When Lord Krishna went to him and put the reality in front of him and tried to talk to him, he tried to capture Lord Krishna too," she adds.
Congress President Rahul Gandhi and Dhanbad Congress candidate Kirti Azad hold a roadshow in Jharkhand's constituency.
Madhya Pradesh chief minister Kamal Nath tells news agency ANI: "Former chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, today, was given a list of 21 lakh farmers whose loans have been waived off and in whose accounts the money has been deposited. List is available on the agriculture portal as well, guess he doesn't know how to access it."
