Prime Minister Narendra Modi today launched his party’s “Main Bhi Chowkidar(I am a watchman too)” campaign ahead of the national election that begins next month. He released a video with the same title, tweeting, “Your Chowkidar is standing firm and serving the nation”. The campaign comes amid Congress president Rahul Gandhi’s repeated attacks on PM Modi and his government over the Rafale jet deal with the slogan, “Chowkidar Chor Hai (watchman is a thief)”.
“But, I am not alone. Everyone who is fighting corruption, dirt, social evils is a Chowkidar. Everyone working hard for the progress of India is a Chowkidar,” PM Modi said in a tweet that also had the video attached.
Your Chowkidar is standing firm & serving the nation.
But, I am not alone.
Everyone who is fighting corruption, dirt, social evils is a Chowkidar.
Everyone working hard for the progress of India is a Chowkidar.
Today, every Indian is saying-#MainBhiChowkidar
