Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday hit out at Congress claiming that it promised reservations on the basis of religion even though the Constitution does not allow it.

India's Constitution bars reservations on the basis of religion, but Congress promised the same in its poll manifesto, the PM said.

By doing so, it stabbed Dr B R Ambedkar in the back, he added.

Congress wants to snatch away people's wealth, it will find out "through X-ray" what is hidden in your lockers, Modi said.

Madhya Pradesh was known as a ‘Bimaru’ state during the Congress regime, and development took place only when the BJP came to power, he said.
