## Madhya Pradesh CM Praises Modi, Criticizes Congress
Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav showered praise on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, stating that even Pakistani politicians express their desire for a leader like him in their country. He also criticized the Congress party, alleging that their actions led to the partition of India.
Yadav made these remarks during his campaign speeches in the Hoshangabad Lok Sabha constituency on Friday. He claimed that the people of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) also yearn to be part of India due to the prevailing crisis in Pakistan.
"Pakistani leaders, including former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, continuously say that they wish Narendra Modi was their leader. If you are a true leader, even your enemies should praise you. This leader (Modi) is making us proud," Yadav asserted.
He further slammed the Congress, stating that the party bears the "stigma" of dividing the country into India and Pakistan. "There was no BJP or Jan Sangh at the time of partition. The country got divided due to the seeds sown by Congress. Half of Punjab went to Pakistan," Yadav remarked.
The Chief Minister also criticized the Congress for fear-mongering during the abrogation of Article 370. "When Article 370 was being scrapped, Congress said rivers of blood will flow in the country. Rivers of blood will flow only when there is blood in the veins. There is water in your (Congress) veins. The entire country is celebrating as the stigma of Article 370 was wiped off," Yadav said.
He added that the people of Kashmir are so happy that even those in PoK are seeking to be included in India, as it is difficult to survive in Pakistan. Polling in the Hoshangabad Lok Sabha seat is scheduled for the second phase on April 26.
