Prime Minister Narendra Modi, speaking in Hardoi, Uttar Pradesh, condemned the Samajwadi Party (SP) and Congress as 'anti-women' for their opposition to the women's reservation bill. He claimed that the SP remains entrenched in 'parivarvad' (dynasty) and 'jativad' (casteist) politics, warning voters to be cautious of their influence. Modi asserted that Uttar Pradesh is on a path to become a $1 trillion economy, citing the inauguration of the Ganga Expressway as a significant achievement of his government. He contrasted the current administration's progress with the previous government's inability to envision such developments, stating that Uttar Pradesh is transforming from a 'backward' state into a model of economic growth. Modi also pointed out that while the world faces turmoil, India is advancing steadily, and he urged citizens to support the Atmanirbhar Bharat (self-reliant India) initiative, which aims to bolster the nation’s infrastructure and economy.
