Addressing his first rally in poll-bound Punjab, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, taking a swipe at the state’s Congress government over the January 5 breach in his security, said on Monday he wanted to offer prayers at a temple after today’s event, but was told by the police they won’t be able to make arrangements for the visit.

“I wanted to offer prayers at Tripurmalini Devi Shaktipeeth after this event, but the adminstration and police said they will not be able to make the arrangements. This is the situation of the government here. But I will surely offer prayers at Shaktipeeth soon,” PM Modi said in Jalandhar.

The Prime Minister also praised former Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh, whose newly formed Punjab Lok Congress (PLC) is contesting the polls as a constituent of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA).
