Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday hit out at rivals, saying they only bothered about "vote bank" politics and did not pay attention to the problems of Muslim women suffering due to triple talaq.

Addressing a rally for the Barabanki and Ayodhya districts, PM Modi took a swipe at rivals for claiming they can understand people's pain more than those who have no family, saying for him, UP and the entire country is family.

The prime minister also highlighted the large-scale recruitment of women in Uttar Pradesh Police as well as in the army.

Modi talked about launching vaccination drives for animals and also caring for the marginal farmers by giving money directly to their bank account.

Earlier, Modi urged people to come out and vote in where the fourth round of Assembly polls are underway.

"Today is the fourth round of voting in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly Elections. I request all the voters to contribute to strengthening democracy by casting their valuable votes," Modi said in a tweet in Hindi on Wednesday morning.
