“Even today, projects worth more than Rs 7,000 crore have been inaugurated and the foundation stone has been laid for the development of this place,” he added.
The Prime Minister alleged that the Congress took help from the Centre but never delivered it to the people. He also alleged that Congress always used tribals as vote-bank, while the BJP wroked for their welfare.
