Prime Minister Narendra Modi this afternoon took a sharp dig at the BJP rivals in Uttar Pradesh, suggesting that he was waiting for them to claim the credit for a Rs 9,800 crore water canal project in Balrampur - about 150 km from Lucknow - that he launched today.
"When I started from Delhi, I was waiting since morning ki kab koi aayega aur kahega (when will somebody come and say) ... we laid the foundation stone for this project. Some people do this out of habit, maybe they cut the ribbon for this project in their youth. Some people's priority is 'imagination', our priority is execution," the Prime Minister said at the event.
The launch comes a day after India bid a final farewell to General Bipin Rawat, who was killed along with his wife and 11 other defence personnel in a chopper crash in Tamil Nadu on Wednesday.
