Power-hungry Modi begs celebrities for election support
Other parties said that Modi's flagship policies have failed to produce promised jobs.
MUMBAI (Web Desk) – After using anti-Pakistan propaganda to win the elections, Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi is now begging prominent personalities to urge the people for their participation in the polls due in May.
In 29 rapid-fire tweets, Modi tagged cricketers Virat Kohli, Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Bollywood actors Ranveer Singh and Vicky Kaushal, asking them to inspire others to provoke people for casting their votes.
Dear @msdhoni, @imVkohli and @ImRo45,

You are always setting outstanding records on the cricketing field but this time, do inspire the 130 crore people of India to set a new record of high voter turnout in the upcoming elections.
When this happens, democracy will be the winner!
My young friends @RanveerOfficial, @Varun_dvn & @vickykaushal09,

Many youngsters admire you.
It is time to tell them: Apna Time Aa Gaya Hai and that it is time to turn up with high Josh to a voting centre near you.
In his tweet to Bollywood stars Singh and Kaushal, power-hungry Modi used dialogues from their hit movies and said they could motivate youngsters to use their voting right.
Urging @SrBachchan, @iamsrk and @karanjohar to creatively ensure high voter awareness and participation in the coming elections.

Because...its all about loving your democracy (and strengthening it). :)
Dear @anilkumble1074, @VVSLaxman281 and @virendersehwag - your heroic deeds on the cricket pitch have inspired millions.

Come, it is time to inspire people once again, this time to vote in record numbers.
Meanwhile, other parties said that Modi’s flagship policies have failed to produce promised jobs, while thousands of debt-ridden farmers have committed suicide in recent years.
The actress-turned-leader Vijaya Shanti, while addressing a rally in Telangana’s Shamshabad which was also addressed by Rahul Gandhi, claimed that people are scared of Modi as they don’t know when he would throw a "bomb".
Admiral (Retd) L Ramdas termed India’s airstrike against Pakistan ‘invalid’ and urged not to use the armed forces for political gains. He said some parties were "brazenly pushing their agenda using images, uniforms and other examples, showing pictures of the armed forces with political figures, in public spaces, in media, election rallies and so on".
Congress Member of Parliament (MP) Ajay Singh said that the Indian airstrike in Pakistan’s Balakot area will be exposed in next 10 days.
He said, "A few days ago, bombs were dropped on Pak. He [PM Modi] said that everything in Balakot was destroyed. New York Times reported that there was no damage due to air strikes. If not today, in the next 10 days, the whole sequence of events will be exposed."
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi while admitting defeat from Pakistan had begun to whine over the shortage of Rafale jets, swanking that they would have achieved much more if the country had the possession of that aircraft.
