Hindutva mascot Narendra Modi termed Congress as a "private limited" party and alleged that it was concerned about bringing back its Muslim vote bank from BSP and Samajwadi Party.

Accusing the UPA Government of pursuing "Muslim appeasement" policy, the Gujarat chief minister said Congress went ahead with Sachchar Commission recommendations to wean away its Muslim votebank from the BSP and the SP.

Campaigning for BJP candidates in Ballia and Deoria, Modi said the UPA led by the "private limited " party of Sonia Gandhi was sinking with its alliance partners.

"UPA led by the private limited party of Sonia Gandhi was sinking with its alliance partners, while Laloo Prasad Yadav, Ram Vilas Paswan and Mulayam Singh Yadav have deserted it."

On the Third Front he said it was "unstable" with parties joining and deserting it often.

On alleged Muslim appeasement of UPA parties he said, "Almost ten pages in the manifesto of the Congress as well as the SP are devoted to Muslim appeasement whereas mere ten lines have been provided to the issue of national security."
