In his address, Modi said connectivity across NCR will take a big leap forward with the inauguration of the Delhi section of Dwarka Expressway and UER-II. He said people in Delhi NCR will hugely benefit from this and also save time during their commute. Slaming opposition Modi said "Those who dance with the Constitution on their heads, how they trampled on the Constitution, how they betrayed the sentiments of Baba Saheb and those who talk big about social justice today have created many damaging rules and laws in the country."
