Ab ki baar 300 paar, phir ek baar Modi sarkar: Modi in MP
    (Eds: adds details)
    Khargone (MP), May 17 (PTI)Addressing his last rally
of the ongoing Lok Sabha elections, Prime Minister Narendra
Modi Friday said he is sure of the BJP-led ruling dispensation
winning over 300 seats in the House.
    Addressing the rally in Khargone, Modi also thanked
people for deciding to make him the prime minister again.
    People will elect a majority government for the second
time in a row after decades, he said.
    "From Kashmir to Kanyakumari, from Kutch to Kamrup,
the whole nation is saying- Ab ki baar, 300 paar, phir ek baar
Modi sarkar," Modi said, expressing confidence that the BJP-
led alliance will win over 300 seats.
    The BJP-led NDA is the choice of 130 crore Indians,
Modi said.
    "This Sunday when you go to cast your vote then you
will be scripting history. After decades you will elect a
majority govt for a second time in a row," Modi told the
voters.
    The fourth and last phase of Lok Sabha polls in the
state will be held on May 19, along with the seventh and last
phase in the country.
    Modi also sought to highlight the freedom struggle
link of the places where he held his first and last rally of
this Lok Sabha poll campaign.
    "My election campaign started from Meerut, Uttar
Pradesh. Now the last rally is happening in Khargone, Madhya
Pradesh. From a historical perspective, there is a connection
between Meerut and Khargone, which is often not noticed. Both
the cities are associated with the 1857 War of Independence,"
he said.
    Both the cities have inspired nationalism, Modi said.
"In Meerut, Indian soldiers rebelled against the British and
in Khargone, freedom fighter Bhima Nayak led a tribal
agitation and attained martyrdom," he said.
    "The election of 2019 is different from all the
previous general elections. In this poll, people of India are
voting for their country and not for any party. They are
voting to build a New India," Modi said.
    Modi said the Congress hasn't condemned Karnataka
Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy's remark that those who don't
get a square meal join the army and become jawans.
    He asked people to "never forgive" the Congressfor
its ally's remarks.
    Modi invoked freedom fighter and socialist thinker Dr
Ram Manohar Lohia to target the Congress.
    Lohia50 years ago told Jawaharlal Nehru that the most
important issues facing women were water and sanitation.
    "I am fulfilling Lohia's wish. After constructing
toilets and giving dignity to women, I will focus my next term
on ensuring clean drinking water," he said. PTI MAS LAL ADU MR
