Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday took a dig at opposition parties over dynasty politics stating that while the BJP was working for the development of everyone there were some who focused solely on their own gains."There are two development models in the State. One is 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas and Sabka Vishwas'. The other model is 'Khud ka swarth, parivaar ka swarth'. Himachal Pradesh government is working on the first model and has implemented many development programs in the state," said PM Modi."There are different ideologies in every country. Today the people of our country are clearly seeing two ideologies. One ideology is of delay and the other ideology is of development. Those who were following the ideology of procrastination never cared about the people living in the mountains," he added.The Prime Minister made the remarks while addressing the gathering after inaugurating and laying the foundation stones for development projects worth Rs11,000 crore in the Mandi district today.PM Modi laid the foundation stone of the Renukaji Dam project, lying pending for around three decades.
