Prime Minister Narendra Modi  took a sharp dig at the opposition, stating that power-hungry parties are engaged in political games day and night and are not motivated towards national interest.

While addressing a gathering at Varanasi after laying the foundation stone of 44 projects worth Rs 3,880 crore, he said, “Our guiding mantra in serving the nation has always been ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’. With this spirit, we continue to move forward for the betterment of every citizen”.

He further added that power-hungry parties engage in political games day and night, driven not by national interest, but by a single-minded focus on family-based support and family-centric development.

“Those who play games day and night only to grab power, their principle is ‘parivar ka saath parivar ka vikas’ (family support, family development),” the prime minister said in his Parliamentary constituency.
