India developed close ties with Islamic nations post-2014, says PM; slams Cong on EVM tampering claim

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday asserted India developed strong relations with Islamic nations like Saudi Arabia after he assumed office in 2014 and said Congress claim of tampering with voting machines shows it has already accepted defeat in the Gujarat Assembly polls as he gave last minute push to the BJP's high-decibel campaign.

On the penultimate day of campaigning for the second phase of Assembly polls covering 93 seats on December 5, Modi addressed election rallies in Patan town of north Gujarat, Sojitra town in Anand district, Kankrej village of Banaskantha district and Ahmedabad, where he also held a road show.
