"The elections have been announced, there is an atmosphere of debate and discussion and this is the beauty of democracy. The government is keeping its record of last 10 years before the people and planning for the next 25 years. On the other hand, our opponents are also reaching new height, they have just abused me for the 104th time calling me Aurangzeb and threatened to blow my head off," PM Modi said in his speech, reported ANI.

PM Modi also referred to the accusation of INDIA bloc parties of his government misusing the probe agencies against opposition parties and said that the action "against corruption" will continue.
