Prime Minister Narendra Modi sharply criticized Congress and its allies, alleging a concerted effort to reinstate Article 370 in Kashmir and draft a separate Constitution for the region. Speaking at a rally in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Modi questioned if Maharashtra would support those aligning with Pakistan's ideology.
Accusations of conspiracy weren't Modi's only points; he accused Congress of planning to abolish reservations and attempting to divide SCs, STs, and OBCs. Meanwhile, BJP celebrated its role in renaming Aurangabad and fulfilling the late Bal Thackeray's dream, a move resisted by Congress.
Amidst these political battles, Modi emphasized BJP's economic achievements, stating that Maharashtra has witnessed a surge in FDI, thanks to the Mahayuti government. He pitched this election as a choice between patriots and those who 'praise Aurangzeb'.
