Prime Minister (PM) Narendra Modi today said the Opposition's promises of freebies and appeasement politics is why states are drowning in debt. During the virtual interaction with tens of lakhs of booth workers of Karnataka, PM said the states are getting immersed in debt because of freebies, and emphasised that the country and the governments cannot be run like this. Modi also hit out at the Congress on the issue, stating what is the meaning of its guarantees when that party's warranty itself has expired. He said that Congress party itself is a promise of lies, corruption, nepotism. The Congress has announced ‘guarantees’ that include - 200 units of free power to all households (Gruha Jyoti), Rs 2,000 monthly assistance to the woman head of every family (Gruha Lakshmi), and Rs 3,000 every month for graduate youth and Rs 1,500 for diploma holders (both in the age group of 18-25) for two years (YuvaNidhi), if voted to power in Karnataka.

PM Modi said the people of Karnataka have a huge trust in the state BJP and it shows everywhere the BJP leaders are going for campaigning. PM further said BJP governments at the Centre and state were a guarantee for fast-paced development. He also urged the party workers to visit every family under the polling booths personally and talk to them about the work of the double-engine government. The PM will begin his Karnataka campaign the day after.
