‘Need to Change Modi Government to Save the Country, Democracy’

Kejriwal stated that there is a need for immediate change of the Modi government to save the country and democracy.

“If the (Narendra) Modi-(Amit) Shah combine continues to rule the country by winning the 2019 elections, it will change the Constitution and further elections will never take place. A fascist regime will set in as was done by Hitler in Germany,”

Criticising Modi government for unemployment issues, Kejriwal said the youth of the country do not have enough employment opportunities and the current government has made it worse with demonetisation.

Adding to the aim of ‘Mahagathbandhan’, he added that the objective of the general elections was not to find the next prime minister, but to oust Modi and his party.
