In a fresh attack on the Congress party with an eye on the Madhya Pradesh assembly elections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday tore into Congress equating the party with "rusted iron" which he said would push MP back into the BIMARU category if given an opportunity again.

PM Modi was addressing a massive gathering of BJP workers 'Karyakarta Mahakumb', the prime minister said the Congress and its allies in the “Ghamandia” bloc supported the Women's Reservation Bill out of compulsion and hesitation as they understood the power of "nari shakti". He said if given an opportunity, Congress will back out on this bill that seeks to provide 33 percent reservation to women in Parliament and state legislatures.

The 'Karyakarta Mahakumbh' was organised on the birth anniversary of Jana Sangh co-founder Deendayal Upadhyaya to mark the formal culmination of the BJP's 'Jan Ashirwad Yatras' that crisscrossed the length and breadth of the state.

“Congress and allies backed the women's reservation bill out of compulsion. Its passage was possible as 'Modi hai to Mumkin hai'. Modi means the guarantee of fulfilling guarantees," Modi said and slammed Congress and its allies for not allowing the passage of this bill when they were in power.

"Congress is a parivarwadi party with a history of crores of corruption and vote-bank appeasement. It's like rusted iron that will be finished if kept in the rain," Modi said.
