PM Modi claimed that some other parties were also helping the opposition alliance from behind but any vote for them will take Tripura several years backward.
Lashing out at the Congress-CPI(M) alliance in Tripura, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said that the two parties fight 'kushti' (wrestling) in Kerala and have done 'dosti' (friendship) in the northeastern state.
Making a veiled reference to Tipra Motha, PM Modi claimed that some other parties were also helping the opposition alliance from behind but any vote for them will take Tripura several years backward.
"Old players of misgovernance have joined hands for 'chanda' (donation). Those fighting 'kushti' (wrestling) in Kerala have done 'dosti' (friendship) in Tripura," the PM said at an election rally in Radhakishorepur in Gomati district.
"The opposition wants to divide the votes. Some small 'vote-cutter' parties are waiting for the election results, hoping to get their price. Those out with dreams of horse-trading, lock them in their homes now itself," he said.
