Congress spreading lies with the help of foreign agencies to divide society : Narendra Modi
New Delhi, Apr 26 (IBNS) : Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday charged the Congress with spreading "rampant" lies by hiring foreign agencies and dividing society on caste line.
Speaking at an interactive session with BJP candidates in Karnataka via NaMo app, Modi asked party workers not to fall for the opposition's trap of falsehoods.
"Congress has resorted to rampant lying after a series of defeats in elections. Earlier, the Congress used to spread lies over five to 10 issues they raised. Now out of 50 issues, 40-45 are based on lies," media reports quoted the PM as saying.
He said political purity cannot come unless the Congress culture ends.
PM Modi said karyakartas must stand their ground, expose their lies and also fight their means of deceiving people by "hiring foreign agencies".
"If you analyse last few elections, you will realise how a few political parties have indulged only in dividing societies on religious lines. They give lollipops to a community before elections and then forget them," he added.
Modi said the Congress exploits emotions of some community before elections and forget them after the elections. "They will never give account of their works. They keep indulging in dividing the society. The political purity can not be established in the country till the Congress culture is finished from the mainstream," he added.
Karnataka will go to polls on May 12 to elect its representatives for the 224-member Assembly. The results will be out on May 15.
