Stressing that the Congress party never appreciated the role of disadvantaged sections in the country's overall progress, the prime minister said, the Congress governments – over the years – denied them even the basic facilities.

“How can anyone say I have no family when I have brothers, sisters like you”, PM Modi further said at the event organised to mark the credit support to disadvantaged sections.
