PM Modi Launches "Main Bhi Chowkidar” Campaign Before Elections

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today launched "Main Bhi Chowkidar (I am a watchman too)" campaign ahead of the national elections.

Modi said on Twitter, "Your Chowkidar is standing firm and serving the nation". The campaign was started after Congress president Rahul Gandhi attacked Modi and his party over the Rafale jet deal, with the slogan, "Chowkidar Chor Hai (watchman is a thief)".

Modi in 2014, had promised to work as a "chowkidar" to safeguard people's money and their trust once elected. Now, to criticize Modi, Rahul Gandhi made satirical comments using the same word. However, Modi has given a perfect reply to him by launching a "Main Bhi Chowkidar” campaign.

“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,” Modi tweeted.

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
