"The Muslim girls feel safe under the BJP rule in Uttar Pradesh. Many more Muslim girls are going to schools and colleges in the state now," said PM Modi, while addressing an election rally in Kanpur Dehat.

Making reference to the law and order situation in the state, PM Modi said, "Our Muslim daughters used to face a lot of trouble while going for studies because of eve-teasers on streets. They now have a sense of security after criminals were taken to tasks by our government."

Further slamming Samajwadi Party over changing alliance partners in every election, PM Modi said When they keep changing their allies, then how will they serve the people of Uttar Pradesh,"
