COIMBATORE, Mar 27: Observing that a vote for the BJP was a reflection of faith in Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Textiles Minister Smriti Irani today urged the young voters to encourage their friends to vote for the saffron party in the April six Tamil Nadu Assembly polls.
Canvassing votes for BJP candidate Ms Vanathi Srinivasan, who is contesting against actor-politician and Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) Founder Kamal Haasan in the Coimabtore South constituency, she said during the COVID lockdown, the Centre, through Jandhan accounts, was able to directly transfer money to people’s accounts. It had also given free rations for eight months to 80 crore families. ”Imagine if this would have reached the people in Tamil Nadu had the DMK been in power,” she asked.
Stating that BJP politics was a way of serving people, Ms Smriti Irani reminded the people of Mr Modi bowing down on the Parliament steps in 2014.
Exhorting the young voters to encourage their friends to vote for the BJP, she said a vote for Ms Srinivasan was a vote for the BJP and a reflection of the faith in Mr. Modi.
Highlighting the achievements of the BJP-led Government at the Centre, she also challenged Kamal Haasan to have a debate with Ms Vanathi Srinivasan on problems, solutions, policy and governance to enable the voters decide on who is better between the two. Recalling her debate with him on a television platform, she said, “I call upon one who is going around with a torch (kamal’s poll symbol) to debate with Ms Vanathi Srinivasan.
”The debate will help voters see the difference like milk and water. Let the voters determine who is better between the two,” she added.
Ms Smriti Irani also said voting was a sacred duty because a vote for the BJP was to uplift the poor. (PTI)
As a result they would gain good deeds, which would reach them sitting on the lotus (BJP symbol) and not with a torchlight (MNM party symbol).
