NT Correspondent

Khandwa: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said the Congress has damaged Karnataka where development has come to a standstill and raised doubts about the continuation of its chief minister at the helm.

He also targeted the ruling Congress in Rajasthan over "infighting" between two groups, an apparent reference to the feud between Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and former Deputy CM Sachin Pilot.

“Congress indulges in corruption and spoils the states where it forms government. They indulge in infighting and have no time for the people,” Modi said while addressing a public meeting at Khandwa in poll-bound Madhya Pradesh.

“Look at the Congress government which was formed just six months ago in Karnataka..the CM does not know how long he is going to be the head of the state. They have spoiled Karnataka where the development activities have come to a standstill,” he said.

This is the culture of Congress, where infighting continues. And their judge sitting in Delhi adjudicates and runs the shop,” Modi added.

"Wherever the Congress government is formed by mistake, a competition to loot the state between its chief minister and his deputy is taking place such news is coming regularly from Karnataka, " the P M said.
