CM Fadnavis also criticized former Congress President Rahul Gandhi. He said that "PM Modi has built faith in the country. It is important to win elections in politics. So people feel that the way Rahul Gandhi runs the party or the situation of Congress, these parties have no chance for the next 20-25 years. So if politics is to be done then it should be done with BJP and Modi".
