बीजेपी व पीएम श्री मोदी अपनी सरकार की नाकामियों व घोर विफलताओं पर से लोगों का ध्यान बांटने व गरीबी एवं बेरोजगारी आदि के जनहित के मुद्दे को असली चुनावी बहस बनने से रोकने के लिये हर प्रकार के गढ़े मुर्दे उखाड़ने की कोशिाश में लगे हुये हैं जो अतिनिन्दनीय है। जनता सावधान रहे।

"Prime Minister Modi remained busy in foundation ceremonies and have spent Rs 3044 Crore on advertisements. This public money could have been used for providing education and hospital in every village of the backward state like Uttar Pradesh, but for BJP advertisement is more important while public welfare is not important" she tweeted.
