Modi is there means India will develop very fast in economy & military. India will be very safe as long as BJP rules. All countries will afraid if they want to disturb India. But to spoil it Rahul, Stalin, Lady Taliban Mamata, SP, RJD, UBT, PFI, SDPI. So all Indian must vote BJP for our future generation. People of all types must come out from home & vote BJP. It is sad 35% of people especially Hindus & Middle, Rich people are not coming out vote on polling date.
