1:57 pm: In the temple of India's democracy,  pepper was sprayed into the eyes of MPs, and Congress was deeply embroiled in politics. Congress has no faith in the dignity of democracy.

1:56 pm: Their leader (Rahul) said we brought bills in Parliament, but opposition is not allowing Parliament to function. He should not speak lies. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's ministers and MPs are entering the well and not allowing Parliament to function. Congress used to put dust in people's eyes, now it is putting chillies in the eyes of people: Modi

1: 53 pm: For the last 60 years Congress is in power. When his father Rajiv Gandhi was PM, Congress was in power right from Centre, to states and till panchayat level, BJP was nowhere in the picture. Your father had said, only 15 paise out of a rupee reaches the poor. The nation wants to know, which was the Hand, which used to rub the rupee coin to convert it into 15 paise. Congress is the mother of all corruption.  Corruption and Congress are twin sisters. So long as people get not rid of Congress, the nation cannot be rid of corruption: Modi
