He reiterated his allegation that Congress is a divided house in the state and the father-son Hooda duo is depriving the Dalits and backwards of their rights. «Congress has only one formula — to not work and not allow others to work. Congress politics is confined to making false promises whereas BJP politics is based on hard work and delivering results… We focus on outcomes but Congress does not do any work. Congress feels that since a decade has passed, people of Haryana will serve power to them on a platter. It had the same misconception in Madhya Pradesh where the party started celebrating even before the results came out,» Modi said at a rally in Palwal.
