Today the country has new aspirations, new hopes, and new confidence: PM
Prime Minister Narendra Modi concluded his 2024 election campaign with a spirited public rally in Hoshiarpur, Punjab, paying homage to the sacred land of Guru Ravidas Ji and emphasizing his government’s commitment to development and heritage preservation.
“Hoshiarpur is called the small Kashi. This is the sacred land of Guru Ravidas Ji. Ending the election campaign here is nothing short of a blessing,” PM Modi remarked, connecting the spiritual significance of Hoshiarpur with his constituency, Varanasi, which is also the birthplace of Guru Ravidas Ji.
Highlighting the progress India has made under his leadership, PM Modi expressed confidence in the country’s future. “Today the country has new aspirations, new hopes, new confidence. After decades, a majority central government is going to score a hat-trick,” he said. Emphasizing the dream of a developed India, he noted, “Every Indian is connected with this dream, and that’s why they are blessing us.”
PM Modi reiterated his commitment to transforming India in the 21st century, citing the unprecedented development of the past decade. “When people from Punjab and other states go abroad, they see for themselves how much respect for India and Indians has increased,” he stated, attributing this respect to the strength of a stable government.
Drawing inspiration from Guru Ravidas Ji’s teachings, PM Modi emphasized his government’s focus on the welfare of the poor. “Guru Ravidas Ji used to say, ‘I desire such a rule, where everyone has food.’ In the past 10 years, we have provided free grain and free treatment facilities to the poorest of the poor,” he declared.
Highlighting the impact of his government’s welfare schemes, PM Modi noted, “Today, no poor, Dalit, or deprived child has to sleep on an empty stomach. Today, a poor woman does not have to hide her illness out of compulsion. Now she has a ration card and an Ayushman card.”
PM Modi underscored his government’s efforts to eliminate caste discrimination and promote social equality. “Guru Ravidas Ji wanted a society without discrimination based on caste. Today, the benefits of the Modi government’s schemes are reaching everyone without discrimination,” he said, listing achievements such as providing concrete houses, gas connections, toilets, and electricity connections to all sections of society. He reaffirmed his commitment to the principle of “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas” which he described as a guiding philosophy for his administration.
PM Modi highlighted his government’s initiatives to honor the heritage of Guru Ravidas Ji. “In Madhya Pradesh, I laid the foundation stone of a grand memorial to Guru Ravidas Ji. Facilities are being increased at Guru Ravidas Ji’s birthplace in Kashi. Even in Delhi, there is a holy place of Guru Ravidas Ji Maharaj in Tughlakabad,” he announced. He also expressed his desire to name the Adampur airport after Guru Ravidas Ji, promising swift action once the government is formed.
Addressing the challenges faced by his government, PM Modi criticized the self-serving politics of Congress and the INDI alliance. He accused them of indulging in vote bank politics and failing to assert India’s rights during the partition. “Their love for the vote bank was such that during the partition, they couldn’t assert India’s right over our Kartarpur Sahib,” he said.
PM Modi also condemned their opposition to the Ram temple and the CAA, attributing it to their appeasement politics. “These are the same people who strangled the constitution during the Emergency and did not think of the constitution during the 1984 riots,” he asserted.
Criticizing the INDI alliance’s misgovernance, PM Modi recalled the dark hour of Indian history and said, “Nowadays, the country’s people hear much about the constitution from the INDI alliance members. These are the same people who strangled the Constitution during the Emergency. When Sikhs were being burned with tires around their necks during the 1984 riots, they did not think of the Constitution.”
“In the 10 years of my government, I have continuously protected the reservation of SC-ST-OBC. Congress and the INDI alliance are furious about my efforts. Their intentions regarding reservation are very dangerous. Their entire track record is about snatching the reservation of SC-ST-OBC,” said PM Modi condemning the INDI alliance and Congress’ appeasement politics.
Taking a sharp dig at Congress and the INDI alliance, PM Modi highlighted, “Congress is the mother of corruption. Congress has done a double Ph.D. in corruption in 60 years. And now another corrupt party has joined Congress. This party is also extremely deceitful. These people came in the name of making Punjab drug-free. But they have made drugs their means of income. The whole world knows about the liquor scam in Delhi. Here, the mining mafia is also running unchecked.”
“These hardcore corrupt people, these extreme deceivers have thrown Punjab into gang wars. These people have ruined both industry and agriculture in Punjab. These hardcore corrupt people, extreme deceivers are also becoming number one in women’s oppression. Today the world is seeing their deeds from Delhi to Punjab,” he added.
During his concluding remarks, PM Modi urged the people of Punjab to support BJP candidates in the upcoming elections. “The coming 5 years will be for the rise of the poor, farmers, youth, and women empowerment. I urge you to make the lotus bloom on every seat in Punjab on June 1st,” he appealed.
You trusted BJD for 25 years, but it broke your trust at every step: PM
Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed enthusiastic public meetings in Mayurbhanj, Balasore and Kendrapara, Odisha with a vision of unprecedented development and transformation for the state and the country. PM Modi emphasized the achievements of the last decade under his leadership and laid out ambitious plans for the next five years, promising continued progress and prosperity for all Indians.
Declaring his final day of the election campaign in Odisha, PM Modi declared, “After five decades, the country is poised to form a full majority government for the third consecutive time. The development that people had not witnessed for decades has been seen in the past 10 years.” Also, PM Modi highlighted the remarkable economic progress made since 2014 and said, “In 2014, we were the 11th largest economy in the world. Today, we are the fifth largest economic power.”
“Before 2014, less than 40 % of villages in the country had proper sanitation. Today, we have achieved the target of 100 %. Previously, LPG connections were available in only 50-55 % of households. Today, almost 100 % of households have been freed from smoke. Until 2014, more than 75 % of rural families did not have access to tap water. Today, approximately 75 % of households receive water through taps. The idea that free food grains and free medical treatment could be available was unimaginable. Today, Modi has made it possible,” said PM Modi highlighting the progressive approach of his government.
Looking forward, PM Modi assured the people that the next five years would be filled with unprecedented achievements. “India will become the third largest economic power in the world. In the next five years, we will witness an ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’ in many sectors. We will see a complete transformation of highways, expressways, and railways. This will directly benefit our eastern regions, including Odisha,” PM Modi remarked.
Raising concerns over the conspiracy behind health issues of Odisha CM Naveen Patnaik, PM Modi said, “Today, all well-wishers of Naveen Babu are deeply concerned. They are very distressed to see how Naveen Babu’s health suddenly deteriorated in the last year. People who have been close to Naveen Babu for years now discuss this with me when they meet. They tell me that Naveen Babu is now unable to make any decisions on his own. People who have been close to Naveen Babu for a long time now believe that there might be some conspiracy behind his deteriorating health.”
PM Modi expressed confidence that the people of Odisha have decided to put an end to 25 years of BJD rule and said, “I am pleased that Odisha has decided to put an end to 25 years of BJD rule. On June 10, Odisha will witness the swearing-in of its first BJP Chief Minister.”
Reflecting on the unique cultural heritage of Mayurbhanj, PM Modi praised its tradition of women empowerment. “The land of Mayurbhanj is known for women empowerment. Traditionally, Mayurbhanj has been celebrated because only women pull the chariot of Maa Subhadra here. But now, the daughter of Mayurbhanj is leading our country of 140 crore people. Our President Draupadi Murmu is the first citizen of the country. This is a matter of pride for Mayurbhanj, Odisha, and the entire nation’s women.”
Reaffirming his commitment to the welfare of the tribal community, PM Modi stated, “The BJP government is dedicated to the pride and welfare of the tribal community. It was the Atal Bihari Vajpayee government that established a separate Tribal Ministry. The BJP was the first to include the Santhali language in the Eighth Schedule. I am the first Prime Minister to visit the village of Lord Birsa Munda. It is the Modi government that declared Lord Birsa Munda’s birth anniversary as ‘Janjatiya Gaurav Diwas.”
PM Modi assured the farmers and families involved in forest product collection of substantial support. “Many families in this region are engaged in the collection of forest products like ‘Sal’ leaves, ‘Sabai’ grass, and ‘Kendu’ leaves. Odisha BJP guarantees to purchase kendu leaves at 2 rupees per carry and provide a bonus. When our government comes to power, paddy farmers here will receive an MSP of 3100 rupees per quintal.”
PM Modi criticized the BJD government for breaking the trust of the people and engaging in corrupt practices. “You trusted the BJD for 25 years, but the BJD has broken your trust at every step. This same BJD government had introduced a law to grab the lands of tribal brothers. Due to pressure from the BJP, they had to withdraw it. The BJD has also looted your mineral resources. Modi established the District Mineral Fund, giving thousands of crores of rupees to Odisha. The BJD committed fraud even with this fund.”
During his second public meeting in Balasore, PM Modi highlighted the critical issues plaguing Odisha and reiterated his commitment to development and transparency. PM Modi emphasized the urgent need for change and the pivotal role of the BJP in bringing about this transformation.
PM Modi listed various accomplishments of his government, such as India’s enhanced missile power, successful Chandrayaan missions, and the organization of the G-20 summit. He also mentioned the government’s effective handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, which positioned India as the world’s fastest-growing economy. “This unprecedented trust in Modi’s guarantee across the country is based on a strong track record of 10 years,” he emphasized.
Targeting the corruption of BJD leaders, PM Modi highlighted the plight of Odisha’s farmers. “The corruption of BJD leaders has devastated the farmers of Odisha. These BJD leaders, who once didn’t even own a bicycle, now ride in long luxury cars,” he remarked. He promised to eradicate corruption in the paddy markets and ensure fair MSP. PM Modi assured the crowd that the BJP’s promises are always fulfilled, emphasizing transparency and direct benefit transfers. “Every guarantee of Modi reaches 100 %, no scams, no middlemen,” he stated.
Speaking about ‘Viksit Bharat’ and Odisha, PM Modi said, “As soon as a BJP Chief Minister is elected here, work will begin to transform the beautiful beaches of Odisha. Every potential for pilgrimage and sea tourism in Odisha will be explored and developed.” PM Modi called for unity and support from the people of Odisha. He urged them to vote for the BJP to ensure the state’s development and prosperity. “The departure of BJD is certain on June 4. On June 10, the BJP Chief Minister will take the oath here,” he declared.
Addressing his final rally for the 2024 elections in Odisha, PM Modi addressed a massive gathering in Kendrapara, highlighting the transformative journey ahead for the state. PM Modi expressed his confidence in ushering in a new era of development in Odisha post-June 4th. He said, “On June 10th, Odisha will witness the historic oath-taking of the first BJP Chief Minister, who will be a son or daughter of Odisha.” He stressed the need for a double-engine government to accelerate Odisha’s growth, mirroring the national endorsement of a strong BJP-led government for the third consecutive term.
Highlighting significant achievements, he mentioned, “We made, the world’s tallest statue, the Statue of Unity, in India, the world’s largest office building in India, Atal Setu, one of Asia’s largest sea bridges, Atal Tunnel, one of the world’s highest tunnels, the new Parliament building, the National War Memorial for martyrs. A Panchteerth is dedicated to Babasaheb Ambedkar. A memorial for Lord Birsa Munda. A statue of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose on Kartavya Path in Delhi. Islands in Andaman named after Param Vir Chakra awardees. The implementation of the National Education Policy and the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, replacing the British-made Indian Penal Code.”
PM Modi highlighted the forthcoming political upheaval, predicting a significant disintegration within family-run parties and a new storm in Odisha politics. “The workers of all family-run parties in the country are at the peak of despair,” PM Modi remarked, indicating a shift towards a more transparent and people-centric governance model.
“Odisha has given bumper voting for BJP’s MPs and MLAs in every phase,” PM Modi noted, attributing this to the people’s desire for change after 25 years. He articulated Odisha’s votes against oppressive and corrupt regimes and for development, transparency, and cultural preservation. “The BJP will come and open all four doors of the Shri Jagannath Temple for devotees,” he pledged, reflecting the people’s trust in BJP’s vision. “Comprehensive development of Odisha is my commitment. To make your life easier and to end your worries is my resolution. And that is why BJP has made very solid promises to Odisha, PM Modi added.
PM Modi concluded his address by urging the people to elect more BJP MLAs ensuring a Viksit Odisha and a Viksit India and said, “Whatever I have to do, I have to do it for you. You are my legacy.”
I will put all my strength into making Bengal developed: PM
Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed a powerful public gathering in Mathurapur, West Bengal, being his last rally in Bengal for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Paying homage to the holy Gangasagar, PM Modi acknowledged the overwhelming support of the people, especially the women, signaling a decisive victory for the BJP. He also expressed heartfelt gratitude to the people of Kolkata for their immense love and affection, which he believes reflects their endorsement of the BJP’s governance. “Your affection demonstrates, Phir Ek Baar, Modi Sarkar,” he affirmed.
Highlighting the significance of the upcoming election, PM Modi described the 2024 Lok Sabha election as unique and remarkable. He reminded the audience of the hardships faced by millions of poor people, the lack of basic amenities, and the dominance of family-based politics that stifled the aspirations of the youth. “This election is being fought by the people themselves, stepping forward. Because they have seen 10 years of development journey and 60 years of decline,” PM Modi remarked.
“Countries that gained independence along with us, reached heights. We had so much talent, so much skill and potential, a growing young population, but we kept falling behind,” lamented the Prime Minister. However, pointing out the transformation that India has undergone in the last decade, he said, “Today, when India is moving forward at a new pace, the whole world is watching. Today, India is being praised all over the world.”
Listing the achievements of his government, PM Modi stated, “In the past 10 years, we have provided houses to 4 crore poor people. Brought water to over 12 crore homes. Provided electricity to every village. Today, we are the fifth-largest economy in the world. We are on the path to becoming the third-largest economy. Now, India is on the path to becoming a developed nation.” He emphasized that the next five years would play a decisive role in building a golden India, starting with elections results on June 4th.
For the development of Bengal, PM Modi stressed the need for electing MPs who share the vision of a developed India. “Therefore, I need as many MPs from Bengal as possible. I assure you, I will put all my strength into making Bengal developed.”
Criticizing the TMC and the INDI alliance, PM Modi accused them of taking Bengal in the wrong direction and being intolerant of the BJP’s growing support. “TMC only has one weapon left, ‘Eta hote debo na!’ The development work that Modi does. TMC says, ‘Eta hote debo na!” He highlighted the obstacles created by the TMC government in various welfare schemes, including women’s safety, Ujjwala cylinders, and the Ayushman scheme.
“The stubbornness of TMC is causing great harm to millions of fishermen in this region,” he continued, outlining the numerous initiatives taken by the central government for the welfare of fishermen, which the TMC government has obstructed. “But, TMC doesn’t care about you. They are only concerned with their extortion and cut-money system. Will you punish such a TMC or not?”
PM Modi also condemned the TMC for its attempts to erase Bengal’s identity and attack religious institutions. “The TMC insults institutions like ISKCON, Ramakrishna Mission, and Bharat Sevashram. Their goons attack the monasteries. The Ram temple is the center of our faith. The TMC people call the Ram temple impure. Such a TMC can never protect Bengal’s culture,” said PM Modi.
Addressing issues of appeasement and constitutional violations, he accused the TMC of creating fake OBC certificates for Muslims, depriving the rightful beneficiaries. “The Kolkata High Court canceled these fake certificates, but the TMC cannot ignore the High Court’s order. They are lying to the Muslims, spreading confusion.” He assured that a vote on June 1st would stop these dangerous intentions and begin a new journey for a safe and developed Bengal.
During his concluding remarks, PM Modi assured the people that the BJP would bring honest development and fulfill their expectations. “Strengthen the BJP in Bengal. Only the BJP will fulfill all your expectations,” he declared, urging support for BJP candidates.
