Every day, hundreds of TDP workers are accompanying, supporting and canvassing in favour of me in the constituency. Even the JanaSena Party workers are campaigning with me and have extended their support. Our alliance workers are reaching out to the people and convincing them on my behalf about the development and welfare schemes that will be brought to the constituency. The kind of support I am getting from leaders of the alliance is appreciable

What has Lalu Prasad Yadav (RJD supremo) given to the state of Bihar in his 15 years of governance, except ‘Jungle Raaj’? The people migrated out of state due to his misgovernance. Almost half of the RJD candidates for the Lok Sabha elections have criminal records against them

Here’s what Delhi Haj Committee Chairperson Kausar Jahan said on AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi’s remark on PM Modi
“The country is witnessing a change, and the people of the Muslim community now believe in the ‘Modi Guarantee’. I would like to ask Owaisi why he doesn’t contest the election from somewhere else; he knows that the people outside Hyderabad won’t tolerate him. The kind of language Asaduddin Owaisi used for PM Modi is very indecent and condemnable.”

Andhra Pradesh Congress chief and candidate from Kadapa constituency, YS Sharmila addressed a public rally in Mydukur earlier today
He (PM Modi) can speak against any party and candidate, but why is he targeting only one community in his speeches. PM Modi has created a new MCC (Modi’s Criminal Code), under which he can say anything to anyone, and no one can stop him
– AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi while addressing a public meeting in Hyderabad earlier today
If somebody makes such statements, it’s naturally that party will be offended, such things should not be done…now people will make decision on this…because of the kind of situation Congress is in right now, they’re distracted and making such statements

Hindus, Christians and Muslims used to live here with brotherhood…what happening right now is not good for the country. Our leader KCR also says this, we ran govt peacefully. BJP and Congress are dividing people and this is not right
– Nama Nageswara Rao, BRS LS Candidate from Khammam
In this rally today, we, ‘Ram bhakts’, are walking towards ‘Ram Rajya’. We all hope that this time PM Modi will win more than 400 seats and it will include all the seats of West Bengal
– BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari in Medinipore constituency earlier today
He doesn’t seem to be winning Wayanad. This is why he has set out to eye Raebareli. He has lost Amethi, and he probably sees his loss. He is going to lose Raebareli also
– On Rahul Gandhi to contest from Raebareli, BJP leader Purnesh Modi, who also got him convicted in the Modi surname defamation case
My message (to the BJP) is to leave the ideology of RSS and follow the ideology of Mahatma Gandhi

This was a coordination meeting of the Delhi AAP and Congress committees. We were constantly discussing ways to better enhance our coordination… We have appointed 7 leaders each of Congress and AAP as coordinators… Similarly, we will appoint coordinators for every Vidhan Sabha… I am confident that after better coordination, we will be able to fight against the injustice of this government

“Who was the first individual to make a personal donation to Parikrama project? It was me. So, did I oppose it? If a 13th-century idol is discovered, instead of preserving it you put glossy tile over it and say that it is development. At least I don’t accept it. This is not development…You might have some vested interests, someone might want to become ‘nakli Odia’. Who stopped Rath Yatra in 2020?…CM should disclose this
– Union Minister and BJP Lok Sabha candidate from Sambalpur, Dharmendra Pradhan
Odisha has a tradition…Today, every Odia is thinking that why is their state lagging behind so much. It has been 26 years but villages in Odisha do not have access to drinking water. Fields in Odisha do not have water for irrigation. Schools in Odisha do not have teachers…Government hospitals do not have doctors. Odisha leads when it comes to oppression against women…How long will this go on? Resentment over this can be seen. BJP is going with an appeal to the people…PM has appealed to the people of Odisha to give us an opportunity to serve them
– Union Minister and BJP Lok Sabha candidate from Sambalpur, Dharmendra Pradhan
I am learning from my brother Manoj Tiwari. I have come here to learn from him and understand the nuances of electoral politics from him. I am very very grateful to PM Modi for giving me this opportunity to go amongst the people, seek their blessings and take their blessings to PM Modi, who is today undisputedly the most honest, popular leader India and world have ever seen
– Union Minister and BJP candidate from Mumbai North, Piyush Goyal
He indulges in petty talks and attacks by abandoning his dignity – there is no meaning in replying to them. Who is scared? Didn’t (LK) Advani file nomination from two seats? Didn’t (Atal Bihari) Vajpayee do it? He himself did it. Chhoti baatein karke wo chhota ban’na chahte hain
– On PM Modi’s jibe over Rahul Gandhi’s candidature from Raebareli and not Amethi, Congress national president Mallikarjun Kharge
Nowadays all the corrupt people are busy in making small alliances…sometimes it is not clear whether it is INDI alliance or ‘Anda alliance’…here (Delhi) they (AAP-Congress) became friends and in Punjab they wrestler with each other…in Kerala, CM Pinarayi Vijayan gives statements against Rahul Gandhi everyday…I am sure he (Rahul Gandhi) will lose Wayanad for sure and that’s why he came running to UP
– Union Minister and BJP candidate from Mumbai North, Piyush Goyal
We have clearly written in our manifesto – when our government comes to power, we will have a caste census, an economic survey and a survey of all organisations. We will find out how many people in press-media, corporate world, private hospitals, colleges and universities are from backward classes, SC and ST. This will bring out the truth. Public will get to know of their participation. This is a revolutionary step…The day caste census takes place, people of the country will get to know the reality of India

They want to make you dependent on them for this monthly ration of 5kg. They don’t want you to be independent. Had they wanted to do good for you, would they have implemented the Agnipath scheme? Would they have let these 30 lakh posts lie vacant in 10 years? They have been busy touring the world… If someone gets too much of governance, they tend to become arrogant
– Addressing a public rally, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra
I have faced several challenges in life. I have successfully faced those challenges. I have accepted this with humility…The entire organisation stands with Anand Sharma. I have been a Congress worker for 52 years now and I have shouldered all the responsibilities that have been given to me

– On election preparations, Hari Narayanan, Nellore District Collector
I feel saddened to hear how Congress leaders talk about women. Yeh unke liye doob marne ke barabar hai. Now, where is Priyanka Gandhi who talks about “Ladki hoon, lad sakti hoon”? She should ask her state party chief about his statement on Imarti Devi ji. Disrespecting women is Congress’ character. He (Jitu Patwari) should resign from his post and Congress should take action. I condemn his statement and behaviour

What face do the Congress and JMM leaders come to you with? They are so shameless that even after getting caught in scams and corruption, they do not care about it. Why do you think they are so eager to make a government? Do you think it’s for your good? They want to make a government in Delhi because they want to unleash unrestrained loot in the country. Before 2014, they did nothing but loot the country… In their government, adivasis are killed in broad daylight. They want to maintain terror of criminals among the adivasis.

My adivasi brothers and sister have a right on the jal, jungle, and zameen of Jharkhand. JMM and Congress consider it their property, which is why they are openly looting every resource of the state. JMM was involved in such a big liquor scam. Sand is being illegally mined and looted. Everyone from small leaders to the former CM, everyone is involved in it… After taking away the lands of adivasis, they have their eyes on the lands of the Indian Army
– PM Modi
Samajwadi Party, Congress and BSP lie a lot to the public. In their manifesto, Congress say that they will give full liberty to minorities to follow their eating habits. I want to ask, which food habits they have are different from the majority community. It is only one, i.e., beef… We will not support this sin
– Addressing a public rally in Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath
In our democracy, one person can contest on more than one seat. He is using that democratic right. But this is unjust to the voters of Wayanad because he never intimated to the voters of Wayanad that he intends to contest another seat… It is about political morality
