In Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh, Prime Minister Modi fiercely attacked Congress. The Prime Minister made the statement of Deputy Chief Minister of the state TS Singh Deo during a program on September 14 as his political weapon. In Bilaspur on Saturday, PM Modi said that there is no shortage of money for development works in the state, this is not what the Deputy Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh says. Seeing his statement becoming a weapon, TS Singh Deo has hit back. TS Singh Deo said there is a difference between government programs and platforms used for political discourse. The Prime Minister should understand this, he is the top representative of the country. Government programs have different protocols and it is not right to base those statements on political rallies.
It is noteworthy that Singh Deo, considered Baghel’s rival in the state Congress, had shared the stage with the Prime Minister on September 14. Here development works in the state were inaugurated. During the program, Singh Dev had said that the central government has not been biased towards Chhattisgarh. Support and money has been received for development works.
Modi claimed that after Singh Deo spoke the truth, a ‘storm’ was created in the Congress and party leaders started targeting Singh Deo. He said “When the Congress was in power at the Center (as part of the United Progressive Alliance), which has now become an ‘arrogant’ coalition, it gave an average of only ₹300 crore per year for railway works, but the Modi government ₹6,000 crore has been given in a year for the expansion of the railway network.
Responding to the Prime Minister’s comment, Singh Deo said, “There are two different platforms in which we express our views in different ways. There is a stage of a government program, in which all the public representatives follow different etiquettes. Then there is the political stage in which arrows are fired. The common platform of the Central and State Governments has a distinct dignity. We talk a lot on the political platform too, but that issue does not come to the fore.
Addressing a large crowd at the ‘Parivartan Mahasankalp Rally’ on the occasion of the conclusion of two outreach campaigns, the Prime Minister said the BJP is completely dedicated to the development of Chhattisgarh, whether it is in power at the Center or in the state. The PM said, “Today I have come to guarantee you that Modi will leave no stone unturned in making your every dream come true. This is Modi’s guarantee that your dreams are Modi’s resolve. No matter how hard I try from Delhi, development will not stop you. But the Congress government here keeps trying to hinder it.”

New Zealand Despite consistently performing well in the ODI World Cup, the team has so far failed to win the title. The team has reached the semi-finals of the last four World Cups. Under the leadership of Kane Williamson, the team reached the finals in 2019 and came very close to the title but missed becoming the champion. After the regular overs game ended in a draw, the score of both the teams remained equal in the super over also. After this, due to the strange rule of scoring more boundaries, the England team became the winner. Although the statistics confirm that New Zealand has to struggle in India, but this team has always raised the level of its game in the World Cup.
Strengths of New Zealand team: The team is always known for raising the level of its performance in the World Cup. The team was successful in reaching the finals in the last two events in 2015 and 2019. He ended the ICC title drought with the World Test Championship in 2021.
Great mix of youth and experience in New Zealand team
There is a great mix of youth and experience in the New Zealand team. Players like Devon Conway, Daryl Mitchell and Glenn Phillips WilliamsonWill get guidance from Tim Southee and Trent Boult. Experienced spinners like Mitchell Santner and Ish Sodhi will be effective in Indian conditions. In fast bowling, Bolt and Southee will get the support of Lockie Ferguson and Matt Henry.
Weakness of New Zealand team: New Zealand’s ODI record in India is quite disappointing. The team has registered only 18 wins in 61 matches. It has faced defeat in 47 matches while two matches have ended without any result.
Williamson’s injury a big problem for New Zealand
Williamson will not be available for New Zealand’s opening match against England in Ahmedabad as he is suffering from a knee injury. He suffered this injury during IPL 2023. Williamson’s performance in the tournament can largely decide the fate of New Zealand. This thirty-two year old player is the best batsman of the team in Indian conditions.
Opportunity: This World Cup could be the last chance for the trio of Williamson, Boult and Southee to win another ICC trophy for New Zealand. Conway won the IPL trophy this year with Chennai Super Kings. The left-handed batsman will be keen to further extend his success in the white-ball format in India. Mitchell has been an important player for New Zealand with both bat and ball. Phillips, Will Young and even Rachin Ravindra would like to contribute.
hazard: Apart from the poor record in India, New Zealand was defeated 4-1 by Pakistan in a five-match series on their soil in May this year. However, New Zealand has strengthened its World Cup preparations by winning 2-1 against Pakistan in January and recently winning the three-match series 2-0 against Bangladesh on its home ground.
