Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Garibi Hatao (Remove Poverty) was not a slogan of the BJP in 2014. However, the Congress party led by Indira Gandhi gave the slogan of 'Garibi Hatao, Desh Bachao' during her general elections campaign in 1971. The slogan means, "abolish poverty, save the country". Thus, the party promised to reorient all government policies to remove poverty from the country. For instance, the party reached out to various sections of the underprivileged groups in rural India, the lower castes and tribes.
Thus, the correct statement would be that the ‘Garibi Hatao’ (Remove Poverty) was a famous slogan of the Indian National Congress in 1971.
