Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said the Congress-led INDIA bloc is mulling a "one year, one PM" formula after coming to power which means the country will see five prime ministers in five years, a jibe over the apparent lack of consensus in the Opposition camp on its PM face (Pics/PTI)

Addressing a campaign rally at Kolhapur in western Maharashtra, Modi also said the opposition bloc cannot even reach a three-digit figure or even "at the doorstep of forming a government"

"They are thinking of (implementing) 'one year, one PM' formula. If they get an opportunity to remain in power for five years, there will be five prime ministers. But the country won't tolerate such people who are dreaming of imposing five prime ministers in five years." he said

PM Modi said the Congress had planned to rotate the post of the chief minister in Karnataka by handing it to the deputy CM after 2.5 years, and such an arrangement was also planned for Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan

"They are playing this game there," he said

The Congress wants to change the Constitution and rob Dalits, and OBCs of quota benefits for religion-based reservation, he said

PM Modi also accused the Congress of planning to extend the "Karnataka model wherein Muslims were inducted in the 27 per cent quota for OBCs", in the entire country

"The Congress-led alliance has vowed to murder social justice," he said and accused the Congress of stooping low for appeasement and vote bank politics

PM Modi claimed the Congress and its allies changed their strategy and turned to "anti-national agenda" and "appeasement" tactics "after realising that they cannot compete with NDA on its development record"

"Before elections, I had said it is the 'Viksit Bharat ke sankalp ka chunav'. But the moment, the Congress and its alliance partners realised that they could not compete with NDA on its development track record, they changed their strategy and shifted to anti-national agenda and appeasement tactics," he said
