The Congress is "shaking in fear" with the approaching Lok Sabha poll dates as it knows very well it will be ousted, BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi said here Sunday.
Addressing a huge rally here, Modi said the ruling Congress at the centre was "scared".
"Why is the Congress so scared, why is the Congress shaking in fear," he asked the cheering crowd.
"The Congress knows its place very well. It knows after May 16 (vote counting day) where its place will be. That is why it wants to stop Modi."
The Gujarat chief minister said the upcoming Lok Sabha election was for defeating the Congress-led government.
"This election is for ousting the (Congress) government. The Congress won't be saved and neither can it save the nation," he said.
