Addressing an election rally at Karkardooma in east Delhi, Modi said the spurt in protests in areas like Shaheen Bagh, Seelampur and Jamia were not just co-incidences. "The agitation should have ended after the government assurance (on CAA). Attention is being diverted from the real conspiracy. If this plot grows, they can jam any road, any street in Delhi," the Prime Minister said.

Reminding people of the surgical strike, he said "some people even questioned the army. Can they provide safe environment to the people of Delhi.
Modi said, "the people of Delhi first changed the country and now, their vote will change the city. India of 21st century won't be run by politics of hate but politics of development."
The BJP leader said, the February 8 polls in Delhi was the first election of this decade and that would decide the future of the national capital as well as the nation.
Stating that the BJP does what it says, Modi promised concrete houses for the slum dwellers and home for the poor.
"I feel sad when I see that the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) is not being implemented. The Centre built 2 crore houses, but not a single house was built in Delhi," Modi said.
Accusing the Congress of indulging in the politics of manipulation, Modi said his government got the Kartarpur Corridor, the CAA, the National War Memorial, Ram temple, OROP (one rank, one pension), abrogation of Article 370, but "it took 70 years."
