Prime Minister and BJP leader Narendra Modi launched a scathing attack against the Congress-Communist Party’s ‘INDI alliance’ in Tripura and said that the two parties are bitter foes in the southern state of Kerala.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed at Agartala on Wednesday in support of the BJP candidates of both the East and West Tripura Parliamentary constituencies.

Addressing the mammoth rally in Agartala Swami Vivekananda Ground, PM Modi said, “The 10 years of development of the North East states including Tripura was a trailer and BJP is committed to bring development of the region in the next 5 years.”

“Despite decades of independence and Congress rule, the region’s potential was overlooked. In Tripura, communist governance brought destruction rather than progress. Today, the government in Delhi prioritizes the North East and our Tripura. Beyond politics, it’s about love and priority for me,” he said.

He said, “BJP vows to build 3 crore new houses nationwide in 5 years, benefiting Tripura as well. This is just a glimpse of BJP’s decade-long commitment to Tripura and the North East. The party’s Sankalp Patra for the next 5 years promises prosperity. Free ration for all beneficiaries will continue, guaranteed by Modi. Additionally, every elderly person above 70 will receive free treatment up to Rs 5 lakh under Ayushman Yojana, a significant announcement in BJP’s Sankalp Patra.”

Lauding Tripura’s accelerated development efforts, PM Modi said, “Tripura has been connected by more than a dozen trains in the last 10 years. The work of electrification of the state’s railway lines has been completed rapidly. Our own government has started Maharaja Bir Bikram Airport in the capital Agartala.”

“The HIRA model on which our government has worked for the development of Tripura is being discussed in the entire country today. HIRA means Highway, Internet way, Railway and Airway! I promised you this and I have fulfilled it,” PM Modi added.

Launching a blistering attack on the opposition, PM Modi said, “For Tripura, BJP signifies the politics of development, contrasting with the communists’ history of destruction and Congress’s legacy of corruption. Corruption thrived under CPI(M) and Congress opposition rule, turning Tripura into a hub of violence and malpractice. Now, former adversaries unite to preserve their vested interests.”

“These Congress-Communists are so opportunistic that here in Tripura they have an alliance, but in Kerala, they are enemies of each other. In Kerala, Congress calls Communists terrorists and Communists call Congress very corrupt,” PM Modi expressed while exposing the realities of opposition parties.
