PM Modi warns against ‘revadi’ culture

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday urged people to reject what he called a “revadi culture” of offering freebies for votes and said this is “very dangerous” for the development of the country.

The PM used ‘revadi’, a popular north Indian sweet often distributed during festivals, as a metaphor for freebies being promised by various parties to “grab power” and said the people, especially the youth should guard against this.
