Mangaluru: BJP candidates are endangering the future of the country by asking for votes in the name of Prime Minister Narendra Modi alone and failing to talk about their own achievements, said RSS leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a programme here on Saturday April 20.
"Even though these are national elections, it is not a good practice to seek votes only in the name of Narendra Modi. RSS cadres never worship any individual," he said.
"In five years, Modi has done what could not be done in 65 years. He has achieved success in every level. That's why BJP candidates ask for votes in his name. Actually, the candidates should be electioneering based on their own achievements. They pale in front of Modi's achievements," he claimed.
"Modi gives BJP MPs every support they need for the development of their constituencies. The candidates should have made use of that (financial) support. Some have done that, but still, it is dangerous to use only Modi's name," he warned.
Speaking on the Grand Alliance of several parties Mr Bhat said, "BJP at least has Modi. Others do not have anybody."
