Will a remote controlled government or hospitalized do? Delhi needs a strong government. Do you appreciate a weak inspector? A child would be reluctant to attend school if his teacher is ineffective. So can a nation function with weak governance? You give me a strong government and I will work for you.When is the election??Crowd: 12th MayModi: Will you vote in the morning or evening? Will you do what I tell you to?Crowd: YesModi: First vote and then have breakfast. 01:08 pm: Modi: Your good days are going to come. Do you know how? BJP has mentioned in their manifesto, that exploitation of farmers in the name of Minimum Cost Price will be halted. Minimum cost price will now be fixed through some mechanism. Expenditure incurred in cost of production will be covered with 50% bonus. That will be the minimum cost price. Will you suffer then? Goods days are about to come…Even if Congress party gets people out of the prison, then too it will not be able to form a government.01: 05 pm: Modi: I am from the land of Mahatma Gandhi. I have come to improve the land Jai Prakash Narayan. Have you ever heard that farmers of Gujarat are suffering? Why? In Gujarat there are areas where our farmers cultivate sugarcane. Owners of sugar mills are farmers themselves. Everything happens at the right time. Can't this happen in Bihar too? But they don't care about Bihar. They are only interested in practicing low politics. 01:03: Modi: Brothers and sisters – these days taunts of practicing ‘neeche politics' is being thrown on me. People have usurped land of the widows of martyrs. Isn't that ‘neeche' (low) politics. When athletes from the entire world had come here, those who robbed their share, didn't they practice neeche politics? They asked for money even from toilet paper. Nirbhaya case in Delhi -. You were all a witness to it. A girl was raped and killed – Isn't that low politics? Who practices low politics? Who is a sinner? Exploiting nation is petty politics or not? If I start talking about their evil deeds for the past 60 years then I will keep speaking for months. I am against this low politics.12:59 pm: Modi: Those who thought they were carry the nation in their pockets, people were in their pockets, and one tea seller has brought down their pride. One poor mother's son has brought them down. This hasn't been done by Modi, but by the people of this country. That is why Rahul bhaiya has been compelled to walk around the streets of Amethi and beg for votes. This is the strength of democracy. They didn't even provide water to Amethi. 12:57 pm: Modi: Brothers and sisters tell me – is it bad to ask or loot. I accept asking but not plundering. People have exploited this nation for far too long. But no more! I will not let that happen. (As more and more people try to come in) – Brothers and sisters there is no place on the fields but you all have sufficient place in my heart. 12:55 pm: Modi: The people have declared the outcome of Lok Sabha election. I am going to every corner of this country as a servant. With bowed head I'm asking for your blessing. Madam Soniaji said, he is asking. I had once said ‘Yeh Dil mange more'…now tell me, do poor people have any other choice but to ask for? You may feel ashamed to ask Madam Sonia but I feel proud. For me public is god. If I don't ask them then who will I turn to? That's why I'm asking. 12:54 pm: Modi: If Pandit Nehru had said something then his predecessors should have done it. Don't listen to us. You should have at least listened to your grand father. Those who don't obey to their elders, why will they listen to you? Can you trust such people?12:52 pm: Modi begins his speechModi's rally in Valmiki Nagar:12:17 pm: Modi concludes his speech12:13 pm: Modi: I wish to raise a serious question- what is ‘neeche politics'? Crops are rotting. Supreme Court tells the government to give the grains to poor, but they sell it off to alcohol making companies at Rs 80/ kg. Isn't this ‘neeche politics'. During Common Wealth games they ate money of toilet paper. Players didn't get water. They snatched that too. Isn't this ‘neeche politics'? Pakistan comes and cuts off the head of my soldiers and Delhi government feeds chicken biryani to Pakistan PM. Electricity houses have shut down because coal has been stolen. Do even thieves rob coal? Delhi government ate coal too. That is ‘neeche politics'. To rid our country of such politics, vote for BJP. Make us win.12:10 pm: Modi: Now days Congress party is getting desperate because of its obvious failure. They feel their family has given so many Prime Ministers. Every night they research on what abuse they must pounce on Modi. Every morning a bomb of abuse is thrown on me. I work for you. Their agenda is to prevent Modi. My agenda is tribal; their agenda is to prevent Modi. My agenda is employment; their agenda is Modi…you tell me which agenda do you prefer? 12:08 pm: Modi: You farmers don't get the right value for your cultivation. Farmers are compelled to sell their raw materials worth lakhs for mere Rs 20, 000. Doesn't that happen? Due to poor market strategy you suffer. So we have decided that whatever your investment will be, we will pay you in full on an addition to 50% bonus. Will you suffer then? I want your blessing. 12:07: Modi: Now tell me all you farmers who work so hard, do you get the right value for your efforts? Do you want to continue being exploited? Congress cannot save you. BJP will save you. We don't talk in air. I will explain how we are going to help you. 12:05 pm: Modi: It was Atal Behari Vajpayee who made a separate budget for tribal, gave them recognition. Even now 40% tribal are under the care of BJP, be it in Gujarat or any other place. BJP makes their life. Be it tribal, poor, destitute – the new government will work for you people. I have to give your children strength. I have to empower you. 12:01 pm: Modi: Just as Congress would not win any seats, even Lalu, JD (U), etc will not win more than 9 seats. Their pride is going to destroy them. They don't know that the public knows everything. Don't we have many tribal in this area? Don't we have many Bengalis here? Crowd: Yes!!!Modi: Have Congress, Lalu or anyone else addressed you people? They are not concerned about you. In our country tribal existed in Lord Ram's time, during Independence tribal were there….you know right? Tribal also shed their blood during the war of Independence. Congress didn't even know that. You will be surprised, that after coming to power in Delhi for 50 years Congress didn't know you exists. Drown yourself Congress for not caring for the poor. 11:58 am: Modi: This is the first time that results have been declared before completion of elections. I can see that there will be many states where Congress will not get any seat. Not just that. Today Congress has been compelled by the people to walk around the streets of Amethi. That's how the public punishes those who live in pride. Be it Congress or its sycophants – UPA they will all have to pay. They act behind the curtain. They wrestle in Patna and eat on the same plate in Delhi served by ‘Madam'. 11:56 am: Modi: I have gone to every corner of this nation to seek people's blessing. Today I have come to you. I seek your blessing too so that I can work for you. I want your blessing so that I can work for the youth. I have been all over the country and now I can say that all the surveys and media have already declared BJP as winner. Journalists come to me and ask me what I will do when I become the Prime Minister. 11:54 pm: Modi begins his speech
