HIGHLIGHTS
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal - in what seemed like an emotional, shaky voice - today said Pakistan could not divide the country in 70 years but PM Modi and Amit Shah managed to do it in just five years.
Arvind Kejriwal was speaking at West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's anti-Modi mega rally that was held in Kolkata at Brigade Parade Grounds.
"I am ashamed that our Prime Minister follows those people on social media who use cuss words on social media against women. What Pakistan could not do in 70 years, Modi and Amit Shah have done in five years...they have divided our country," Arvind Kejriwal said.
Almost 20 Opposition parties' leaders joined TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee in downsizing Prime Minister Modi and the BJP. Leaders like former Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy and leader of Congress in Lok Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge.
"It was Pakistan's dream to split this country into pieces. This BJP government is going ahead in that direction by creating enmity among people and dividing the nation on the lines of religion, language..." Arvind Kejriwal said.
Slamming the central government, he said in the last five years, it has failed to create employment opportunities and farmers were facing acute crises.
"Demonetisation has taken away all the scope of employment and Modi's friendly insurance companies were making money at the cost of farmers," the Delhi CM alleged.
He added that the objective of the general elections was not to find the next prime minister, but to oust Modi and his party.
