Mathura: In a speech marking the first anniversary of his government, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday pitched his government as "pro-poor" and said it had brought "achche din (good days)" to people but "bure din (bad days)" to those who had "looted" the nation.

Addressing a rally at Nagla Chandra Bhan village -- associated with Bharatiya Jan Sangh ideologue Deen Dayal Upadhyay, he made veiled attacks at the Congress over its repeated criticism of his government as "pro-corporate" and "anti-poor".
