PM Modi urged MPs from the ruling alliance to work for the poor and also hit out at the opposition for promoting the culture of freebies.
Stepping up the ruling alliance's preparations for the 2024 elections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given MPs a list of "victory mantras", one of which is to exercise restraint in their speech even in the face of provocation by the opposition.
Continuing his meetings with small clusters of MPs from the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), the Prime Minister addressed a group of over 45 Members of Parliament from various states yesterday. He urged the MPs to work for the poor and also hit out at the opposition for promoting the culture of freebies.
Emphasising on things the MPs can do to ensure the alliance's victory in the polls, PM Modi exhorted them to exercise restraint in their speech. "The opposition will instigate, but control your speech so that there is no chance of controversy," a BJP source quoted the PM as saying.
