"In Karnataka, Congress lied and urged people to vote for them. They formed govt and were unable to fulfil their promises. Instead, they are running an extortion campaign in Karnataka.

If we want to save Maharashtra, we need to keep Congress at bay," he said.

Maharashtra is at the top of the list of investment companies that have been visiting India for investment in the last 2.5 years. Pune and this region will get a huge share of this investment. The number of companies increased when the investment was made in the electronics and IT sectors," he added.
PM Modi said that the relationship between Pune and BJP is of "ideology, culture and faith". "Pune has always supported the ideology and vision of the BJP. I am deeply grateful to the people of Pune for this trust. I have come to assure you that the new Mahayuti government will work faster for the development of Pune and Maharashtra. The coming five years will be the years of new flights of development for Pune," he said. He expressed confidence of ruling Mahayuti defeating the Maha Vikas Aghadi in the polls.
PM Modi addressed three rallies in Maharashtra on Tuesday. Apart from Pune, he addressed rallies at Chimur and Solapur. Polling in Maharashtra for 288 assembly seats will be held on November 20 and votes will be counted on November 23.
