Hon’ble National President of Bharatiya Janata Party, Shri Jagat Prakash Nadda addressed a public meeting at Sarath in Deoghar, Jharkhand on Wednesday.  Shri Nadda made a scathing attack on the dirty politics of corruption, nepotism and appeasement of the Indi alliance and while mentioning the schemes of the BJP government, called for forming the Modi government once again. During the event, Dumka Lok Sabha candidate Smt. Sita Soren, Incumbent MP Shri Sunil Soren, Rajya Sabha MP Shri Aditya Sahu and MLA Shri Ranvir Singh, among other leaders were present.

Shri Nadda stated that despite the intense heat and adverse circumstances, the enthusiasm of the people has been revived because Smt. Sita Soren is likely to win the election. The significant participation of people in such contrary conditions indicates that they have decided that on June 1st, they will press the ‘Lotus‘ button. He appealed to the people to spread this message to everyone that on the 1st of June, by pressing the Lotus button, they should fulfill their responsibility towards the nation, the state, and the welfare of Dumka. A decade ago, the common man in India had resigned to the belief that politics would never change, that nothing would change in India, and that we would always remain backward, that our nation is corrupt. But in ten years, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji, through his actions, dedication and hard work, has propelled the nation forward. And because of his efforts, today the common man says that the country is changing and moving forward.

Hon’ble BJP National President stated that by pressing the Lotus button on 1st June, we will fulfill the pledge of Viksit Bharat envisioned by Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji, and the country will advance on the path of Viksit Bharat. Today, under the leadership of Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji, the ordinary citizen of India is walking with the belief that India has progressed with the pledge of ‘Viksit Bharat.’ This enthusiasm, this zeal, this self-confidence, this Atmanirbhar Bharat is the changing image of India. A decade ago, votes were sought on the basis of caste, religion and region. However, Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji has transformed the culture and definition of politics by introducing the ideology of development and progress, guided by the mantra of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas.’ 

Shri Nadda remarked that nations such as the United States, Europe, Russia, China and Japan are all confronting economic difficulties. Under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, India has ascended from the 11th to the 5th position in the global economy, surpassing Britain. India is poised to ascend to the rank of the world’s third-largest economy. It took 28 years for medicines for Tuberculosis, 30 years for Tetanus, 28 years for Diphtheria, and 100 years for Japanese fever to arrive in India. However, during the COVID-19 pandemic, under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, India swiftly developed two vaccines within 9 months of the first case registered on January 27, 2020. The country then efficiently administered 220 crore double doses, including booster doses, safeguarding the health of 140 crore citizens. India has supplied vaccines to 100 countries worldwide and generously provided free vaccines to 48 nations as part of the Vaccine Maitri initiative. India’s transformation from a recipient of aid to a proactive provider underscores its growing role as a global contributor. 

Hon’ble BJP National President stated that when earthquakes struck Nepal and Turkey, India was the first to offer assistance. Similarly, when there was a tragedy in Shillong or Madagascar, India was the first to extend support. India has reached out to every country in the world in terms of friendship, and its popularity has increased globally. India has emerged as the world’s second-largest producer of medicines, offering some of the most affordable and effective treatments globally. There has been remarkable progress in the petrochemical sector, and India has become the third-largest automobile sector, surpassing Japan. Additionally, India has become the third-largest toy industry and has secured the second position in steel production. A decade ago, mobile phones used to be labeled ‘Made in China’, but today, 97 percent are produced in India with the mark ‘Made in India‘. 

Shri Nadda stated that approximately 28 kilometers of national highways are being constructed daily, totaling nearly 55 thousand kilometers already built. Additionally, 26 thousand kilometers of new railway tracks have been laid. Through the Pradhan Mantri Gramin Sadak Yojana, roads have been extended to villages across the country, covering lakhs of kilometers. Furthermore, an airport and AIIMS have been established in Deoghar. Kendriya Vidyalaya has been established in Deoghar, signifying development from every perspective. 

Hon’ble BJP National President stated that Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has empowered various sections of society including villages, the poor, marginalized communities, Dalits, youth, farmers and women through his policies. Optical fiber has been extended to over 2 lakh panchayats, providing internet facilities, and approximately 2 lakh villages have been equipped with common service centers. These common service centers enable people in Deoghar to access information about market rates across the country, which proves helpful not only for trading but also for educational purposes. 

Shri Nadda highlighted that despite opposition from the Congress and Jharkhand Mukti Morcha, who deemed laying optical fiber a waste of funds, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji recognized India’s true potential. Consequently, even vegetable vendors conduct digital transactions today. India now accounts for 40% of the world’s digital transactions. 

Hon’ble BJP National President mentioned that through the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana, 5 kg of food grains were distributed to 80 crore people nationwide, including 2 crore 60 lakh people in Jharkhand, this has led to 25 crore individuals having been uplifted from the poverty line. This scheme will continue for the next five years under the BJP government, ensuring food security for the impoverished. Unlike during Congress rule, where two houses were allocated to every panchayat, under Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s leadership, nearly 50 houses have been constructed in each panchayat, totaling 4 crore houses nationwide, with nearly half in the name of women. Furthermore, the BJP has committed to building 3 crore new houses in the upcoming five years.

Shri Nadda announced that Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji is introducing ‘PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana’, wherein the electricity bills will be zero. Under this scheme, the Modi government will provide ₹75 thousand to families to install solar panels on their rooftops, ensuring free electricity from these panels. Moreover, the government will purchase excess electricity produced, contributing to household income. 

Hon’ble BJP National President highlighted the transformation in healthcare, noting that previously, individuals had to rely on local MPs and MLAs for financial assistance for serious diseases. However, under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, arrangements have been made to provide free treatment up to ₹5 lakh annually to 40 percent of India’s population through the Ayushman Bharat scheme. Additionally, Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji has extended this benefit to people of all classes and religions aged 70 years and above. The potential securing of a third consecutive term by Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi on 4th June would indeed mark a historic moment, potentially setting a new global record.

Shri Nadda remarked that while under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, there is enlightenment, on the other hand, under the INDI alliance, there is darkness. Despite the JMM’s promises regarding ‘Jal, Jungle aur Zameen’ their governance witnesses the flourishing of the sand mafia, illegal land grabs by land mafias and a surge in “land jihad” in the state. Infiltrators are misleading tribal women and promoting “Love jihad’, shielded by the government. Leaders of the INDI Alliance are either in jail, or out on bail, with corruption allegations against nearly all of them. In Jharkhand, both liquor and sand mafias are actively operating. ₹29 crore were seized from the residence of a minister’s PA’s servant in Jharkhand and ₹300 crore were seized from a Member of Parliament’s residence, belonging to the impoverished tribal community of Jharkhand. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has taken action against corrupt individuals and is committed to returning the money to the poor. Under his leadership, India is bolstering its global stature. Under the guidance of Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi, the JMM alliance seeks to encroach the reservations granted to tribals, merely to appease a special community. Rahul Gandhi is frequently seen with the Constitution book, yet the Congress party granted Dalit reservation to the Muslim community four times in Andhra Pradesh. Additionally, in an unconstitutional move, congress party revoked the reservation of the OBC community by classifying the Muslim community as OBC in Karnataka. Shri Nadda appealed for nationwide reform under the Modi government, urging for the victory of local candidates.

Hon’ble Union Home Minister & Minister of Cooperation Shri Amit Shah addressed public meetings in Maharajganj, Deoria, Balia and Sonbhadra, Uttar Pradesh on Wednesday. Shri Shah praised the BJP’s efforts for rapid development in the state. During the event, Maharajganj Lok Sabha candidate Shri Pankaj Chaudhary, Deoria Lok Sabha candidate Shri Shashank Mani Tripathi, Ballia Lok Sabha candidate Shri Neeraj Shekhar, Robertsganj Lok Sabha Candidate Smt Rinki Kol, Deoria MLA Shri Shalabh Mani Tripathi, Deoria Incumbent MP Dr. Ramapati Ram Tripathi and Siswa MLA Shri Prem Sagar Patel, among other leaders were present. Shri Amit Shah began his address by seeking blessings from Sonadi Devi Mandir, Lehda Devi Mandir, Guru Gorakhnath Mandir, and Kathara Shivling. He also paid tribute to freedom fighter and member of constituent assembly Shibban Lal Saxena.

Shri Shah predicted that after the conclusion of the five phases of the election, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji would secure more than 310 seats and form the government for a third consecutive time. He expressed confidence that the sixth and seventh phases would ensure 400 seats for Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji by June 4th. Rahul Gandhi will not cross even 40 seats and ‘Shehzade’ Akhilesh Yadav will not cross 4 seats. On June 4th, both ‘Shehzade’ will hold a press conference and will blame EVM for their loss. He accused the Ghamandia alliance of being involved in corruption worth ₹12 lakh crore but emphasized that no corruption charges had been alleged against Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji. While Rahul Gandhi and Akhilesh Yadav went abroad for summer vacation, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji did not take a single day off during his 23 years as CM and PM. He even celebrated Diwali with soldiers on the border.

 Hon’ble Union Home Minister stated that on one hand, the Congress party, which promised to eradicate poverty with the slogan ‘Gareebi Hatao’, failed to do so. Meanwhile, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s government has provided ration to 80 crore people, built 12 crore toilets, provided water connections to 14 crore households, distributed LPG cylinders to 10 crore people, extended ₹5 lakh free health coverage to 60 crore people, and provided ₹6,000 per year to 11 crore farmers. Congress and the Samajwadi Party delayed the Ram Mandir issue for 70 years. But, within 5 years of Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi’s second term, the decision was made, Bhoomi Pujan was performed, and the grand Ram Mandir is built today. During the Samajwadi Party’s tenure, bullets were fired at Karsevaks. This Lok Sabha election represents a clear choice between those who contributed to the construction of the Ram Mandir and those who perpetrated violence against the Kar Sevaks. 

Shri Shah stated that Pakistan-occupied Kashmir is a part of India. Rahul Gandhi tried to scare everyone by saying you shouldn’t demand PoK because Pakistan has an atomic bomb. However, Rahul Gandhi does not understand that BJP members are not afraid of Pakistan’s atomic bomb. PoK was, is, and will remain a part of India, and India will reclaim it. Samajwadi Party and Congress Party are masters of lying. They are raising the issue of the Sahara refund scam, but this scam occurred during the Samajwadi Party’s rule. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji initiated the refund process and is working to return ₹85,000 crore to 3.5 lakh people defrauded by Sahara.

Hon’ble Union Home Minister stated that Hon’ble Shri Narendra Modi Ji combated with terrorism effectively. During the government of Sonia Gandhi and Manmohan Singh, Pakistan-backed terrorists often attacked India without significant response. However, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji swiftly responded to attacks like Uri and Pulwama with surgical and air strikes within 10 days, making significant strides in eradicating terrorism.

Shri Shah emphasized that the Congress alleges Hon’ble Shri Narendra Modi Ji will terminate the reservation. However, the Prime Minister has served for 10 years without altering reservation policies. It is the Congress that has manipulated reservation systems. In Karnataka, Hyderabad, and Bengal, Congress deprived Dalits and backward classes of their reservation rights, reallocating them to serve its preferred vote bank. As long as there is even one MP from the BJP in the Parliament, no one will be able to touch the reservation of backward classes, Dalits and tribals, this is the Modi ki Guarantee.

Hon’ble Union Home Minister mentioned that it was Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji who honoured Chaudhary Charan Singh Ji with the Bharat Ratna and worked for the welfare of farmers across Uttar Pradesh. Maharajganj is a sugarcane region with four sugar mills, three of which were shut down and sold to private sectors by the BSP. Farmers are now disheartened and disappointed however, when the public elects Shri Pankaj Chaudhary as MP, a new large sugar mill on a cooperative basis equivalent to three mills will be established within one and a half years. 

Shri Shah further stated that these parties closed 30 sugar mills, while the BJP government has restarted 20 mills and built 5 new ones. They have increased the sugarcane cultivation area by 9 lakh hectares and repaid ₹23,000 crore from 1995 to 2017 under the previous government. Since 2017, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has repaid ₹2.5 lakh crore. Ethanol production rates have increased from 42 crore to 156 crore, and Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji ensures that every kilogram of sugarcane is converted to sugar. Under the leadership of Chief Minister Shri Yogi Adityanath, sugarcane production has increased from 72 lakh metric tonnes to 84 lakh metric tonnes.

Hon’ble Union Home Minister highlighted that Shri Pankaj Chaudhary is one of the most experienced parliamentarians in the country. A highly capable individual committed to the development of Maharajganj. Shri Pankaj Chaudhary has constructed the Padrauna-Pilibhit highway, the Partawal-Gorakhpur four-lane road, the Maharajganj bypass, and the Thuthibari bypass. He has modernized the Chowk Parsoni to Nichlaul Puraina road, established a 220 KB substation in Maharajganj, provided gas connections to 2.52 lakh mothers, homes to 64,000 poor families, “Nal Se Jal” to 4.32 lakh homes, and built 4.55 lakh toilets. Additionally, 41,000 farmers have received the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi.

Shri Shah praised the developmental efforts of Deoria incumbent MP Dr. Ramapati Ram Tripathi in the constituency. He highlighted various initiatives undertaken, including the establishment of an oxygen plant during the Corona pandemic, the establishment of a medical college named after Devraha Baba and the construction of an 11 km long bridge over the Gandak river. Additionally, work on a new Deoria Sadar station is in progress. Other accomplishments include providing 22 thousand houses to the poor, constructing 570 km of rural roads, and distributing 2 lakh gas connections under the Ujjwala scheme. Moreover, tap water was supplied to 4 lakh 40 thousand households, while 5 lakh 14 thousand toilets were constructed. Furthermore, 4 lakh 51 thousand farmers received benefits under the Kisan Samman Nidhi scheme, and 7 lakh poor people were provided with 5 kg of grain free of cost.

Hon’ble Union Home Minister highlighted the lack of sensitivity in the Congress party, noting that its leaders prioritize personal pleasure and hobbies, whereas Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji dedicates himself to serving all 140 crore countrymen. He further pointed out that Uttar Pradesh was plagued by both “Mafias and Mosquitoes,” but Chief Minister Shri Yogi Adityanath successfully eradicated these issues. Under the leadership of respected Shri Narendra Modi, Uttar Pradesh is making significant strides forward.

Shri Shah said that in Gujarat, there is a saying that if one action can achieve three goals, it should be done immediately. So, every vote cast for Shri Neeraj Shekar will accomplish three things: it will make Shri Neeraj Shekar an MP, it will help ensure that respected Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi becomes the Prime Minister for the third time, and it will be a tribute to Shri Chandrashekhar.  After the formation of the BJP government, a 100-bed hospital will be established in Sonbarsa within a year. 

Hon’ble Union Home Minister said that when the Samajwadi Party was in power in Uttar Pradesh, there was widespread hooliganism, and illegal land grabbing, and the state was under the control of mafias. However, our leader Shri Yogi Adityanath has worked diligently to tackle these issues and bring law and order back to the state. Previously, Uttar Pradesh had factories manufacturing country-made pistols. Now, with the establishment of the Defense Corridor, the state is producing top-quality shells and Brahmos missiles. In the event of a war, the cannonballs manufactured in Uttar Pradesh will deliver a fitting response to the enemies. 

Shri Shah said that there were instances where electricity was unavailable on Janmashtami while being provided round the clock during Ramzan. However, under the Bharatiya Janata Party government, efforts have been made to ensure 24-hour electricity supply during festivals like Holi and Diwali. 

Hon’ble Union Home Minister said that Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji has spearheaded transformative development initiatives in Uttar Pradesh. Under his leadership, 14 expressways were constructed, nearly 12 thousand kilometers of roads were built, new airports were established, and metro projects are underway in 12 cities. Additionally, 68 medical colleges were established, along with the development of defense corridors, medical device parks, and food parks. The honorable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has diligently worked towards making Uttar Pradesh an exemplary stat 

Hon’ble Union Home Minister said that the Samajwadi Party’s government was responsible for the 1989 firing on Adivasis in Sonbhadra. While the SP government failed the Adivasi community, the BJP government has provided numerous benefits to them. The Van Adhikar Patta, which was neglected by the Samajwadi Party, is now being distributed under the BJP government. If Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji is elected Prime Minister for a third term, every Adivasi family will receive their Van Adhikar Patta before the next election. 

Shri Shah said that the SP exploited illegal mining to deprive Adivasis of their rights, while Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji established the District Mineral Fund to reserve a portion of the extracted minerals for the Adivasi community. SP government stalled the Kanhar Project for decades and praised the BJP for completing it to provide irrigation water to Adivasi fields. Under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, the BJP has eradicated Naxalism from the Sonbhadra region, which borders Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, and Chhattisgarh, and has focused on developing Adivasi areas.

Hon’ble Union Home Minister said that the issue of drinking water scarcity in Mirzapur and Sonbhadra was highlighted, noting that it was a major problem three years ago. However, the BJP is now working to address this issue through the “Nal se Jal” program, aiming to ensure that every home receives water. It was mentioned that Sonbhadra was previously treated unfairly, with electricity generated in Obra and Anpara not reaching the local population. Under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, electricity has now been brought to every household.

Shri Shah said that Smt Rinky Kol’s election symbol is a cup, while the candidate for MLA’s election symbol is a lotus. Pressing any of the buttons for these symbols will ensure Shri Narendra Modi is re-elected as Prime Minister in Delhi. Incumbent MP from Sonbhadra Shri Pakodi Lal worked for development work, including the construction of a four-lane road from Chandauli to Sheikpur, the completion of the Ring Road Phase One, the redevelopment of Sonbhadra, Renukoot, and Chandauli railway stations under the Amrit Bharat Yojana, and the introduction of the Vande Bharat train and the Rajdhani Express from Robertsganj.

Hon’ble Union Home Minister said that the infrastructure achievements under Shri Pakodi Lal’s tenure, such as the doubling of the railway line in Robertsganj, the construction of an overbridge at the Sakaldiha railway crossing costing ₹33 crore, the road from Silpi to MP Border costing ₹21 crore, and the widening of the Amda-Sakaldiha road costing ₹56 crore. He also mentioned the expansion of the Son River bridge, the establishment of a medical college in Churk, and the ongoing construction of another government medical college in Naubatpur. He noted the installation of a 600-megawatt power plant in Obra and the provision of homes to 1,10,000 Adivasis, gas connections to 4,50,000 Adivasis, toilets to 7,60,000 households, and the Kisan Samman Nidhi to 4,10,000 farmers.

Hon’ble Union Home Minister said that under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, several welfare initiatives have been implemented. These include providing 5 kg of food grains per person per month to 7 lakh poor individuals, the successful Chandrayaan mission reaching the moon, and the launch of Aditya, all of which contribute to the welfare of the nation’s poor.

Shri Shah warned that if Rahul Gandhi’s INDI Alliance wins, they have no clear candidate for Prime Minister. Figures like Sharad Pawar, Uddhav Thackeray, Lalu Yadav, Rahul Gandhi, Mamta Banerjee, and Akhilesh Yadav cannot become Prime Minister. INDI Alliance claims there will be five Prime Ministers in five years, but they do not realize that this is not a grocery shop; this is the great nation of 130 crore people. Only Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji can give a strong response to Pakistan. Only Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji can provide gas, electricity, water, and food to 60 crore poor people, save the nation from diseases like COVID-19, and make India’s presence felt worldwide. Everywhere he goes, the chant of “Modi-Modi” echoes, and this chant has become synonymous with a “Viksit Bharat”. Today is a festival of democracy. Shri Shah appealed to everyone to ensure a resounding victory for Shri Pankaj Chaudhary and Shri Shashank Mani Tripathi and re-elect Shri Narendra Modi as Prime Minister.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in grand Barasat and Jadavpur rallies, vowed to combat corruption in Bengal and propel its culture and economy to new heights. Addressing the huge gathering, PM Modi said, “Today, India is on the path to becoming developed. The strongest pillar of this development is eastern India. In the last 10 years, the expenses made by the BJP Government in eastern India was never made in 60-70 years.”

Initiating his spirited address, PM Modi said that he closely monitored the cyclone’s progress, commending the NDRF and other teams for their exemplary efforts. He also assured that “The Central Government is committed to providing all necessary support to the State Government.”

Delving deep into his speech, PM Modi underscored the pivotal role of Eastern India in India’s developmental trajectory and remarked, “In the journey of India’s progress, Eastern India stands as a significant force. Over the past decade, the BJP government has allocated more funds to Eastern India than in the preceding six to seven decades. Our efforts have been dedicated to enhancing connectivity across the region, spanning railways, expressways, waterways, and airports.”

The PM also shed light on Bengal’s rich history and its current economic challenges, “Before independence, Bengal was a thriving hub of employment for countless Indians. Today, however, many factories in Bengal lie dormant, forcing its youth to seek opportunities elsewhere. The blame for this decline falls squarely on the shoulders of Congress, followed by the Left, and now TMC. Each party has contributed to Bengal’s woes, with every vote for CPM ultimately benefiting TMC.”

Reflecting on his past promises, PM Modi reiterated his commitment to combating corruption in India, “Ten years ago, I pledged to eradicate corruption, and I’ve upheld that promise. Now, I assure the nation that ‘Naa Khaunga, Naa Khane Dunga’! Recent recoveries of illicit funds from TMC leaders will be thoroughly investigated, and legal measures are being implemented to ensure justice.”

Amidst discussions on scrutinizing the finances of the common citizens by the INDI Alliance, PM Modi shifted the focus to those engaged in corruption and explicitly commented, “Modi vows to examine the ill-gotten gains of corrupt individuals. An X-ray so powerful that it will deter future generations from indulging in corruption.”

“The Calcutta High Court’s verdict has unmasked TMC’s deception towards the OBCs in Bengal. By designating 77 Muslim castes as OBCs, TMC unlawfully deprived lakhs of OBC youths of their rights. Yet, observe the response of the TMC CM following this judicial decision, here questions are being raised on the intentions of the judges…” the PM reprimanded strongly.

PM Modi shared that a troubling incident unfolded when a TMC MLA made derogatory remarks about Hindus and Bengal’s saints rightfully demanded an apology, “However, instead of rectifying the error, TMC resorted to insulting the saint community itself. Notably, saints associated with ISKCON, Ramakrishna Mission, and Bharat Sevashram Sangh faced disparagement. All this just to appease their vote bank. Furthermore, when sisters from Sandeshkhali sought justice, TMC chose to target them instead.”

“Despite its claims of advocating for the welfare of the people and the land, TMC’s actions have sowed fear among mothers and insulted the sanctity of the soil. Even TMC’s women MLAs who dare to speak out against its hooliganism face retaliation. Recently, a distressing video surfaced featuring mothers and sisters from Keshpur, West Medinipur, pleading for protection from TMC’s goons. It’s imperative to hold such acts accountable through the power of your vote,” the PM expressed deep grief.

PM Modi mentioned that “TMC’s narrative against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) has been fuelled by appeasement politics. However, the reality is evident as hundreds of refugees have successfully obtained citizenship, visible to the entire nation.” “Forget TMC, no power in the world can impede the implementation of CAA,” PM Modi reassured strongly.

In a second massive rally of the day in Jadavpur, West Bengal; PM Modi presented “a stark contrast of priorities, TMC focuses solely on its vote bank, neglecting the youth’s welfare. Meanwhile, Modi champions the cause of a developed India…”

Highlighting the alarming state of democracy in Bengal, PM Modi made the audience aware of certain facts, “Both TMC and Congress exhibit anti-democratic tendencies. From Panchayat to Lok Sabha elections, Bengal’s electoral process is marred by violence, revealing the terror tactics employed by TMC.”

The PM outlined the prominent difference in governance between TMC & BJP and remarked, “There’s no semblance of good governance under TMC’s rule in Bengal. While Modi ensures clean tap water and affordable housing nationwide, Bengal suffers from arsenic-contaminated water and mafia-driven construction. Despite Modi’s initiatives, TMC creates obstacles, failing to address the needs of its people.”

In his call to action, PM Modi encouraged that, “It’s time to shift away from divisive tactics and embrace a politics centred on performance and accountability.”

“With the country’s resolute decision to elect the Modi government in Delhi”, PM Modi urged the audience, “Come June 1, let the lotus blossom across every seat, including Barasat and Jadavpur.” The PM also asked the crowd to venture door to door, village to village, and seek blessings at every temple and place of worship.

“Together, let’s usher in a Viksit Bengal and a Viksit Bharat,” the PM concluded.

Dumka, Jharkhand warmly welcomed Prime Minister Narendra Modi at a vibrant public rally, today. The PM pledged to advance tribal development and guaranteed a Viksit Jharkhand.

PM Modi counted his blessings and reiterated his commitment to a Viksit Bharat, vowing to prevent any opposition forces from derailing this vision, “You blessed Modi in 2014 when the whole country was fed up with Congress’s misrule. Remember the daily scams? Congress looted money in the name of the poor. Modi came and stopped all that. Today, public money is used for public interest. Our mothers and sisters, neglected by previous governments, were uplifted by Modi. We changed their lives and solved their problems.”

PM Modi outlined his future plans for a Viksit and prosperous Bharat, urging the people to continue their support for transformative progress, he remarked, “The work we’ve accomplished in the past 10 years must be taken further in the next 5 years. We will make 3 crore mothers and sisters ‘Lakhpati Didis.’ After forming the government, we will provide new and permanent houses to 3 crore more poor. To eliminate your electricity bills, I’ve launched the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana, for installing solar panels on your homes. You will use the electricity generated at home and earn money by selling the surplus to the government.”

The PM highlighted the rampant corruption, asking the audience to recognize the stark reality under JMM and Congress rule, “JMM and Congress are looting Jharkhand from all sides. Look around you… beautiful mountains, but Jharkhand is now infamous for its mountains of currency notes. Crores of rupees are being seized. Where is this money coming from? Liquor scams, tender scams, and massive mining scams! This is the reality under JMM-Congress.”

PM Modi expressed his deep disregard towards the INDI Alliance’s neglect of tribal interests, emphasizing their destructive policies, “For the INDI Alliance, only their vote bank matters. They have no regard for the tribal society’s interests. Wherever they come to power, tribal society and culture are in danger. Their weapons against tribals are racism, infiltration, and appeasement!”

“Our tribal daughters are being targeted by infiltrators. Their safety and lives are in danger. We must act to protect them and their future,” the PM added further.

PM Modi heavily criticized the dangerous politics of the INDI Alliance, “Their formula is simple: engage in extreme communal politics and appeasement, protect separatists and terrorists, and accuse anyone opposing them of dividing Hindus and Muslims. The INDI Alliance wants to give reservations to Muslims based on religion. Modi stands firm—I will not let the reservation for SC, ST, and OBC be looted. And this stance unsettles the INDI crowd.”

PM Modi underscored his commitment to uplifting marginalized communities and established strongly, “Coming from a humble background, Modi understands the needs of the Dalit, deprived, and tribal areas that were long overlooked. Through the creation of aspirational districts, we have initiated development where it was most needed. Tribal areas have greatly benefited, and today, our Jharkhand, especially Santhal Pargana, is witnessing unprecedented progress and new dimensions of growth.”

In his concluding statement, PM Modi inspired the crowd with a vision for a prosperous future and observed, “We must take Jharkhand to new heights of development, and this promise starts with your vote. Ensure a resounding victory for us. Each vote is a blessing for Modi.” The PM also reassured them that their vote would pave the way for a Viksit Bharat.

Hon’ble National President of BJP, Shri Jagat Prakash Nadda addressed Vidwat Baithak in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh on Monday. Shri Nadda emphasized the substantial developmental initiatives undertaken in the past 10 years under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji. Before that Shri Nadda offered prayers at Kal Bhairav Mandir and Sankat Mochan Mandir in Varanasi and he wishing for the fulfillment of the resolve for a Viksit Bharat. During the prayers, Bharatiya Janata Party’s National media co-incharge Dr. Sanjay Mayukh was present. Addressing the media after the puja, Shri Nadda expressed confidence that the Bharatiya Janata Party will achieve a huge majority in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji.

 During Vidwat Baithak, Shri Nadda stated that working with Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji is a matter of pride. Today, Hon’ble Prime Minister is a prominent figure on the world stage, and the origin and source of that personality is Kashi. 10 years ago, India was considered one of the corrupt nations and was not seen as a leading country. The most significant issue was the prevalent mindset among the common people that the political landscape in India was unchangeable. Indifference in public opinion poses a threat to democracy. However, over the past 10 years, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has instilled faith in the common people, leading us to progress on the path of ‘Viksit Bharat.’ In the past, politics was dominated by a divide and rule strategy based on religion, caste, and region, where politicians sought votes from everyone but, once in power, focused on benefiting only a specific group. Uttar Pradesh exemplified such tactics of caste-based appeasement. However, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has eradicated that culture and promoted development-focused politics with the mantra of ‘Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Prayas’. These two political discourses explain the difference between the situation right now and 10 years ago. Today people believe that the nation is progressing forward and progressing with the vision of ‘Viksit Bharat’ and 1 june 2024 is the day to lay foundation for that by blessing BJP. 

Hon’ble BJP National President emphasized that Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has clearly expressed that India will neither look up to anyone nor look down upon anyone, but will engage with all nations on an equal footing. Whether it’s the President of the United States or the President of China, India represents its 140 crore citizens and will interact with them at the same level. India’s representation spans across various international forums such as QUAD, BRICS, I2U2, G7, G20, and SCO, and it often receives invitations to represent at other global platforms as well. Reflecting on healthcare advancements, earlier timelines for vital vaccines and medicines to reach India were significantly prolonged. For instance, the Tetanus vaccine took 25 to 28 years, Diphtheria medicine took 30 years, Tuberculosis medicine took 30 years, and Japanese encephalitis medicine, developed in 1906 in Japan, arrived in India only in 2005, marking a delay of a century in its accessibility to Indian citizens. When the Covid-19 pandemic struck, it caught everyone off guard. Within a span of 9 months, India’s scientists developed two vaccines. The government swiftly distributed 220 crore doses to its 140 crore citizens, including booster doses, fortifying the nation against the pandemic. Notably, India’s vaccination certificates are digital, unlike the paper ones issued in some other countries like America. India’s vaccination campaign emerged as the world largest and fastest, with vaccines reaching 100 countries, and 48 nations receiving them free of cost.

Shri Nadda stated that today, India has become a country that gives rather than one that asks. America, Europe, and Australia were unable to decide whether life or humanity was more important and were confused about imposing lockdowns. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji imposed a one-day Janata curfew, determining India’s strength. While governments fought against Corona in other countries, in India, the entire nation fought alongside Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Ji. When India was ready, the lockdown was lifted and Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi declared, “Jaan Bhi Hai, Jahan Bhi”.

Hon’ble BJP National President stated that during the crisis time, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji announced a ₹25 lakh crore package. This package included 1 lakh crore rupees for farmers, support for the MSME sector and the Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana to provide rations for 80 crore people. While other countries focused on providing cash, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji emphasized empowerment instead. Hon’ble Shri Narendra Modi Ji conveyed, “Aapada, Avsar Bhi Hai” and aimed to empower farmers, MSMEs and ordinary citizens. As a result, today, while the economies of America, Europe and Japan are struggling, India has risen from the 11th to the 5th largest economy under Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s leadership. Both Morgan Stanley and the IMF acknowledge that if there is a ray of hope, it is India. With the public’s blessings, when Shri Narendra Modi becomes Prime Minister for the third time, India will become the third largest economy.

Shri Nadda highlighted that presently, India ranks second globally in pharmaceuticals, offering the most affordable and potent medicines. India’s pharmaceutical exports have surged by 136%. Likewise, the export of chemicals from India has seen a remarkable growth of 106%. Furthermore, India has emerged as the world’s third-largest automobile market. Whenever India harnesses its full potential, it sets world records. Just a decade ago, mobile phones used to bear labels like ‘Made in China’, ‘Made in Taiwan’, ‘Made in Japan’, or ‘Made in Korea’. Now, they proudly display ‘Made in India’, with 97% of mobile phones being manufactured in the country.

Hon’ble BJP National President pointed out that a decade ago, after delivering speeches in India, leaders from any country would diplomatically use terms that invariably mentioned both India and Pakistan. However, today, no global leader discusses Pakistan in relation to India. During Manmohan Singh’s visits to Washington, he would recount tales of terrorists and enumerate threats. In contrast, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has asserted that there is no imminent danger, India is adept at handling its affairs. From conducting surgical strikes and airstrikes to now taking action within Pakistan’s borders, India demonstrates its resolve.

Shri Nadda highlighted that today, when Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji visits, he not only receives invitations as a state guest but also special invitations to the White House. The discussions have shifted from Pakistan and terrorism to India’s contributions in semiconductor technology and space research. Amidst the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji reiterated the principle of ‘nation first’ and India’s stance remained firm.

Hon’ble BJP National President highlighted that if there has been empowerment of villages, the poor, marginalized, oppressed, disadvantaged, youth, farmers and women, it has only been under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji. Today, optical fiber has been extended to 2 lakh panchayats and common service centers are operational in 2 lakh villages. Congress and SP claimed that India, being illiterate, had no use for digital technology. However, due to Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s understanding of India’s potential, even vegetable vendors now use UPI transactions. Today, India accounts for 40% of the world’s digital transactions.

Shri Nadda mentioned that through the PM Gramin Sadak Yojana, lakhs of kilometers of roads have been built, linking every village with paved roads. Out of the 80 crore individuals, including 5 crore 70 lakh people from Uttar Pradesh, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji ensures the monthly distribution of 5 kg of wheat or rice and 1 kg of pulses. Consequently, 25 crore people in India have been lifted above the poverty line. According to the IMF, India’s extreme poverty rate is now less than 1%.

Hon’ble BJP National President highlighted that in the past, the Indira Awas Yojana provided just two houses per panchayat. Now, each panchayat is witnessing the construction of 50 to 100 houses, resulting in 4 crore pucca houses nationwide. With the ongoing support of the people, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji aims to construct an additional 3 crore houses. In the near future, cylinders will become obsolete as affordable piped gas reaches homes directly.

Shri Nadda mentioned that in the near future, through the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana, people’s electricity bills will become zero. Solar panels will be installed on every household’s roof to generate electricity, with any excess power being sent back to the grid, for which individuals will be compensated. Under the Ujjwala Yojana, 10 gas cylinders have been provided to each household. When Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji spoke about cleanliness from the Red Fort, Congress mocked him. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has ensured the dignity of 12 women by granting them the right to live respectfully, a principle he has integrated into the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan. This initiative has been acknowledged by the UN and the Secretary-General visited Delhi and honored Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendr Modi.

Hon’ble BJP National President mentioned that under Ayushman Bharat, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has extended health coverage of 5 lakh rupees annually to 10 crore 74 lakh families, benefiting 50 crore individuals, including the impoverished. As Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji will secure a third term, individuals aged 70 and above, irrespective of caste or religion, will receive the same ₹5 lakh annual coverage under Ayushman Bharat.

Shri Nadda emphasized that 55 thousand kilometers of national highways have been constructed, facilitating four-lane and six-lane economic corridors in every state. Under Amrit Bharat, railway stations are being rebuilt to resemble airports. ₹10 lakh crore has been spent on infrastructure in just one year, creating employment opportunities. However, questions about unemployment still persist among the people. Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s vision has propelled India towards progress, leading to an increase in GDP. Hon’ble Shri Narendra Modi Ji is guiding the nation forward with the mantra of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Prayas, Sabka Vishwas’.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed spirited public meetings in Mirzapur, Ghosi and Bansgaon, Uttar Pradesh. Addressing the huge gathering, the PM said, “Samajwadi party and Congress people are dedicated to vote bank whereas Modi is dedicated to the poor, Dalits and backward people of the country…”

In a call to action, PM Modi urged the people of Uttar Pradesh to support the BJP-NDA government. “In six phases, the country has ensured a very strong BJP-NDA government for the third time.” He emphasized the significance of June 4, known as Bada Mangal or Budhwa Mangal, with the slogan ‘Phir Ek Baar, Modi Sarkar.’

Addressing the reasons behind the people’s trust in his government, PM Modi stated, “Why has India decided to form the Modi government for the third time? The straightforward reason is, honest intentions, good policies, and national integrity.”

PM Modi criticized the SP-Congress INDI alliance, referring their approach to unstable leadership. “They are talking about having five Prime Ministers in five years. Tell me, if a Prime Minister is busy saving his chair, can he make the country strong? That is why the country has decided that, for a strong nation, the Prime Minister should also be strong.”

Highlighting the misdeeds of the SP government, PM Modi discarded their governance and said, “They had tarnished the name of Mirzapur. They had made the entire UP, especially Purvanchal, a haven for the mafia. Whether it was life or land, nobody knew when it would be snatched away. And in the SP government, even the mafia was considered based on their vote bank. But this is not the case anymore. Now, Yogi Ji has launched a cleanliness drive here. During the SP government, the public used to tremble in fear, but now, under the BJP government, the mafia tremble in fear.”

PM Modi also spoke about appeasement and vote bank politics based on giving reservations against the Constitution. He said, “After coming to power, they tried to enforce their will, but the matter has been stuck in the Supreme Court since then. Despite this, they kept giving OBC rights to Muslims through the back door. But repeatedly, the matter got stuck in either the High Court or the Supreme Court. So now, the INDI people have found the last resort to give reservations to Muslims. The SP-Congress people now want to write in the Constitution itself that Muslims should be given reservations. That is why they want to change the Constitution. They want to end the court hassles once and for all. The SP-Congress people are dedicated to their vote bank, whereas Modi is dedicated to the interests of the poor, Dalits, and the underprivileged.”

Underscoring his government’s commitment to development and welfare, PM Modi elaborated on several initiatives. He said, “Through the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi, around 1,000 crore rupees have been transferred to the accounts of farmers in Mirzapur. Modi has already built 4 crore permanent houses. Another 3 crore permanent houses are to be given to the poor. Each of these houses, worth lakhs of rupees, is being allotted in the name of mothers and sisters.”

“Modi is also paving the way for you to earn from electricity. Our government is providing 75,000 rupees to install solar panels on rooftops. Use as much electricity as you need for free, and the government will buy the rest,” he added.

PM Modi emphasized support for local industries and women’s empowerment. He said, “This area is the domain of our craftsmen, artists, and Vishwakarma families. Modi is working to ensure that your products reach not just the national market but also the global market. We launched the One District One Product scheme and now have brought the PM Vishwakarma Scheme. Under this scheme, the government is providing training, money for modern tools, and direct assistance from banks, guaranteed by Modi.”

“Mirzapur and Robertsganj have emerged as models of women empowerment. Sister Anupriya has already been doing excellent work in my cabinet. This time, Sister Rinki Kaul has also made history as the first female candidate from Robertsganj,” he added.

At another rally in Ghosi, Prime Minister Modi said, “The family politics of SP-Congress turned Purvanchal into a region of mafia. It became a region of deprivation, poverty, and helplessness. But for the past 10 years, Purvanchal has been choosing the Prime Minister of the country. For the past 7 years, Purvanchal has been choosing the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh. That’s why Purvanchal is the most special. Ghazipur, Ballia, and Salempur are not just electing MPs, but choosing the PM of the country.”

Stressing on wrongdoings of the opposition, PM Modi said. “Here, first-time voters won’t remember the SP’s 2012 manifesto. SP clearly stated in their manifesto that just as Babasaheb gave reservation to Dalits, the same reservation will be given to Muslims. This goes against the spirit of the Constitution and Babasaheb’s ideals.”

“Another method Congress explored before 2014 was declaring schools, colleges, and universities as minority institutions. For this, Congress swiftly changed laws overnight and declared thousands of educational institutions as minority institutions. Previously, these institutions provided reservations to SC/ST/OBCs, but that was completely abolished and reservations were now given to Muslims,” he added.

In Ghosi, the PM reiterated that SP-Congress opposed & boycotted Pran-Pratishtha of Shri Ram. He said that an event that has occurred after 500 years the SP and Congress aim to change it and oppose the decision like the way they did with the Shah Bano case.

Speaking at the third rally in Bansgaon, PM Modi highlighted the anticipation for June 4th and the transformative changes ahead, he said, “On June 4, 2024, India’s future will be decided. With the determination of Amrit kaal, the building of a developed India, and the realization of 1.4 billion dreams, the nation will embark on a new journey. Millions await June 4 eagerly: 3 crore poor awaiting permanent homes, elderly above 70 receiving ₹5 lakh worth of free treatment, youth benefiting ₹20 lakh from the Mudra scheme, 3 crore sisters from self-help groups becoming prosperous, and many receiving free electricity through the Surya Ghar Yojana. The countdown to India’s ascent as the third-largest economy begins from June 4.”

PM Modi criticized Congress sharply, stating, “Congress has consistently compromised national security. You know, our country manufactures BrahMos missiles. The day is not far when Uttar Pradesh will also manufacture BrahMos missiles. Despite global demand for BrahMos, Congress obstructed potential sales. Why? These INDI people don’t want India self-reliant in defense or exporting weapons. They prefer foreign deals, continuing the legacy from Bofors to Augusta Westland. Today, we advocate for a self-reliant defense sector.”

Reflecting on the era of SP’s jungle raj, PM Modi remarked, “Under the previous government, it was challenging for sisters and daughters to venture outside their homes. Parents struggled to secure their education amidst difficult circumstances. Businessmen lived in constant fear, unsure when they might be extorted or lose their properties to land grabbers embedded within the government. However, since Yogi Ji assumed office, the atmosphere has transformed, even the climate has changed! The mafia’s rule has come to an end. This illustrates the distinction between the BJP and the INDI alliance.”

Highlighting the challenges faced by farmers during the previous government, PM Modi emphasized, “Under the tenure of the previous governments, farmers in this region endured significant hardships. Many sugar mills were closed down, compelling farmers to cease sugarcane cultivation. Our administration is actively addressing these gaps left by the SP. We have raised the Fair and Remunerative Price (FRP) for sugarcane, thereby clearing outstanding dues amounting to thousands of crores for the farmers.”

In the conclusion, PM Modi called for continued support to ensure a strong and prosperous India. He urged everyone to turn out in large numbers and vote for BJP-led NDA candidates to secure their victory. “Remember, you are not just electing an MP, but also choosing the country’s Prime Minister, choosing Modi,” he said.

Hon’ble National President of Bharatiya Janata Party, Shri Jagat Prakash Nadda addressed public meetings in Jehanabad, Arrah and Bihar Sharif, Bihar on Sunday. He criticized RJD and Congress for pushing Bihar towards Jungle Raj, while praising Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji for his developmental work. During the meeting, Bihar Deputy CM Shri Samrat Chaudhary, Jehanabad Lok Sabha candidate Shri Chandeshwar Prasad Chandravanshi, Union Minister and Lok Sabha candidate from Arrah Shri RK Singh and Bihar MLC Shri Anil Sharma, Bihar Sharif Lok Sabha candidate Shri Kaushalendra Kumar among other leaders were present. 

Shri Nadda highlighted that yesterday, the Lok Sabha elections for six phases has been completed and the BJP-led NDA under Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s leadership is moving forward. The 7th phase of the elections, which includes Jehanabad, is approaching. The people of Jehanabad will give their support and the NDA will achieve ‘400 Paar’ seats, forming a government under Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s leadership. This election is not just about electing an MP but about fulfilling the vision of ‘Viksit Bharat’. The nation is moving forward towards ‘Viksit Bharat’ and the reason behind it is that Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has tirelessly worked for the country’s advancement, earning the trust of the people and thus, they are advancing with him.

Hon’ble BJP National President stated that before 2014, the nation was governed by a ‘Majboor’. When terrorists carried out attacks in the country, a ‘Majboor’ government would send Pakistan a dossier. However, under Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s ‘Mazboot’ government, in response to terrorist attacks, India’s soldiers enter Pakistan’s territory and respond with surgical and air strikes. A ‘Mazjboor’ government is one that engages in discussion with separatists from Kashmir in the Prime Minister’s office in Delhi and serves them biryani. A ‘Mazboot’ government is the one that abolishes Article 370 from Kashmir. The record-breaking voter turnout in Kashmir is possible because Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has brought Kashmir into the mainstream. As a result, today Kashmir is liberated and participating in the celebrations of democracy. 

Shri Nadda pointed out that a decade ago, politics revolved around caste, religion and vote banks. The politics before 2014 was characterized by ‘Divide and rule’. However, under Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s leadership, the definition, culture and approach to politics have transformed. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has advanced with the mantra of “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas”. Consequently, a politics of report card, credibility and accountability has emerged. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has demonstrated to the people that the BJP-led NDA stands for “Jo Kaha Tha Woh Kiya Hai, Jo Nahi Kaha Tha Woh Bhi Karke Diya Hai.”

Hon’ble BJP National President emphasized that India has surged ahead under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji. Despite the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the economies of America, Europe, China and Japan faced setbacks. However, under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, India’s economy has ascended from the 11th to the 5th position leaving Britain behind.  If the people of Bihar re-elect Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji as Prime Minister for the third time, India will emerge as the world’s third-largest economic power within three years. 

Shri Nadda stated that India holds the position as the second-largest pharmaceutical producer worldwide, renowned for manufacturing high-quality and affordable medications. India’s medical exports increased by 126%. Additionally, India’s petrochemical exports increased by 106%. In steel production, India secures the second rank. A decade ago, mobile phones in India were primarily imported from China, Japan and Korea, but today, domestically manufactured devices proudly bear the label “Made in India.” More than 97% of phones are manufactured in India, making it the second biggest manufacturer in the world. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji and his policies have empowered rural areas, the poor, marginalized, oppressed, Dalits, youth, farmers and women. More than 80 crore people received free 5 kg wheat, rice, and 1 kg pulses, with 8 crore 70 lakh people benefiting from the scheme in Bihar. This has made a significant impact, as even the IMF acknowledged that 25 crore people in India have moved out of poverty, and the extreme poverty in India has reduced to less than 1%. 

Hon’ble BJP National President stated that under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi initiative, 11 crore 78 lakh farmers received ₹2,000 every four months directly in their bank accounts, with 80 lakh farmers in Bihar benefiting from it. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has transferred ₹2.5 Lakh crore into the bank accounts of farmers. Under the PM Awas Yojana, more than 4 crore houses were built across the country, with each panchayat receiving more than 50 houses. In Bihar only, 1 crore 40 Lakh houses are constructed. The government also plans to transition to piped gas delivery in every house in the next five years. Under the PM-Surya Ghar Muft Bujli Yojana, the government will facilitate the installation of solar panels in every household, ensuring zero electricity bills. Additionally, surplus electricity generated will be purchased by the government at competitive rates. Today, more than 50 crore people have received ₹5 Lakh health cover under Ayushman Bharat, which makes it world largest Health cover scheme. More than 1 crore 8 Lakh beneficiaries are from Bihar. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has decided that anyone above 70 years of age, regardless of their location, caste, religion or economic status, will be provided with a ₹5 lakh annual health cover under the Ayushman Bharat scheme. 

Shri Nadda highlighted that Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has tripled the grant-in-aid to Bihar and facilitated the transfer of ₹3 Lakh crore under Grant-in-aid. Today, significant strides in infrastructure development were celebrated across Bihar with the inauguration of the IIM campus in Bodh Gaya, the residential campus of IIT in Patna, the establishment of 8 medical colleges, and the expansion of 3500 km of national highways. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has allocated ₹2,607 crore for smart cities in Bihar. The government has allocated ₹6 Lakh crore for infrastructure development in Bihar, including the construction of new bridges and the creation of a 6 Lane Maha Setu. Budget allocation has seen a remarkable increase of 9 times. Under the Amrit Bharat trains initiative, more than 99 railway stations are in the pipeline for development in Bihar, with foundation stones laid for 33 stations. Additionally, in Jehanabad, construction is underway for Navodaya Vidyalaya and Kendriya Vidyalaya, while a 50-bed multi-specialty hospital has been inaugurated. Furthermore, National Highway 110 has been expanded to Jehanabad. The Bhojpur-Buxar four-lane road, spanning 48 kilometers, has incurred an expenditure of ₹1,728 crore, directly benefiting the people of Arrah from Delhi. 

Hon’ble BJP National President highlighted that over the past decade, 55 thousand kilometers of roads have been constructed, and 26 thousand kilometers of new railway tracks have been laid. Through the Digital India initiative, optical fiber has been extended to 2 lakh Panchayats today. Congress used to claim that India was illiterate and questioned the benefits of digitalization in the country. However, today, even vegetable vendors in India are engaged in digital transactions. It is because of the BJP’s policies that common service centers have now opened in 2 lakh villages today. 

Shri Nadda emphasized that in India, it took 25 years for the medicine of Tuberculosis to arrive, 28 years for the medicine of Tetanus to arrive and 100 years for the medicine of Japanese Encephalitis medicine to be available. However, under Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s leadership, India has now emerged as the second-largest producer of medicine in the world. A decade ago, 18 thousand villages lacked electricity, leaving two and a half crore people without it. Today, under Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s leadership, electricity has reached every village. The Arrah Power Grid is being upgraded to accommodate 200 MW and improvements are being made to transformers and electricity supply services. 

Hon’ble BJP National President stated that RJD stands for ‘Rashtra Virodhi-Rishwat Khori, Jungle Raj, and Daldal’. While Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has propelled the country into the ‘LED’ era and is working on schemes like PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana, the RJD party aims to regress Bihar back to the ‘Lalten’ era. Lalu Yadav began his political career as a student leader opposing Indira Gandhi and family politics. Ironically, he named his daughter Misa Bharti after the Maintenance of Internal Security Act. However, today, Lalu Yadav himself is involved in family-based politics and corruption scandals such as the Fodder scam, Alkatra Scam and Land for job case. In Jehanabad, under the ‘Jungle Raj’ of RJD, farmers were compelled to migrate, and murders and kidnappings occurred in broad daylight. Tejashwi Yadav seems unaware of his father Lalu Yadav’s misgovernance. In 2003, RJD initiated a rally ‘Tel Pilawan, Lathi Bhajam’ to intimidate the people of Bihar and coerce them into submission. During the lantern era, flags were hoisted in fields with tractor trolleys and land was illegally occupied. In the past, Lalu Yadav questioned the necessity of roads, suggesting that their construction would attract unwanted attention from the police. Contrastingly, Tejashwi Yadav now promises the creation of 10 lakh jobs, he should first acknowledge and repent for his father’s past actions. Lalu Yadav has no concern even for his caste, he has not done anything for his caste, but has only worked for his family. The Ma-Le (Marxist and Leninism) were nurtured by RJD and Lalu Yadav. The Ma-Le were involved in murder, land grabbing and oppressed the needs of the common man.  

Shri Nadda highlighted the concerning state of education in Bihar, which led people to leave the state for Delhi to pursue studies. Now, under the INDI alliance, leaders like Lalu Yadav and Rahul Gandhi seem preoccupied with trivial matters like learning mutton recipes, rather than addressing pressing issues.  The leaders of the INDI alliance are only focused on saving their families and corrupt associates. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has pledged, from the historic Red Fort, to hold every corrupt individual accountable. While Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji advocates for ‘Bhrashtachar Hatao’, the INDI alliance leaders are more inclined towards ‘Bhrashtachari Bachao’. The Congress party has a history of involvement in various scandals, including those related to coal, sugar, rice, submarines, AgustaWestland, 2G and 3G. Lalu Yadav has been involved in fodder, Alkatra and land for jobs scams. Additionally, Mamata Banerjee’s associates were implicated in a scandal related to teacher recruitment, with cash bundles found at a minister’s residence. From the residence of a servant of a Jharkhand Congress leader’s personal assistant, ₹29 crores were discovered, exemplifying the depth of corruption. Additionally, a Jharkhand Congress minister had ₹360 crores uncovered from his home, which included 18 note-counting machines. This is the pinnacle of the alliance’s corruption. Bihar cannot be governed by such corrupt individuals. Many leaders of the INDI alliance are either behind bars or out on bail. Corruption and dynasty politics define the leadership of the INDI alliance.

Hon’ble BJP National President emphasized that the INDI Alliance is anti-Ram, anti-Sanatan and anti-nation. Sonia Gandhi once asserted in the Supreme Court via an affidavit that Shri Ram is merely a fictional character with no historical basis. Kapil Sibbal also suggested delaying the decision on Ram Janmabhoomi, fearing political gain for the BJP otherwise. The INDI Alliance disrespects the Sanatan Dharma, yet both Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi remain silent on such matters. Wherever there is anti-national activity, this Indi Alliance stands tall. Rahul Gandhi aligns himself with individuals who chant divisive slogans like “Afzal Hum Sharminda Hai, Tere Qatil Zinda Hai”. They have even fielded candidates who advocate for the country’s disintegration.

Shri Nadda stated that now the members of the INDI alliance want to encroach upon the reservations meant for the backward classes, tribals and Dalits and give them to Muslims. The Constitution clearly states that reservations cannot be based on religion, but these alliance members are trying to encroach upon the reservations meant for the backward classes, tribals, and Dalits through backdoors. As long as Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji is in power, no one can encroach upon the reservations meant for the backward classes.

Hon’ble National President of BJP, Shri Nadda appealed to the public to support the ‘Lotus’ symbol and NDA candidates to elect Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji for the third time and continue advancing development throughout the country.

Hon’ble Union Defence Minister Shri Rajnath Singh addressed a public meeting in Fatehgarh Sahib and Bathinda, Punjab on Sunday. Shri Rajnath Singh highlighted the developmental work undertaken by the BJP government for Punjab and the Sikh community and also criticized AAP and the INDI alliance for their misgovernance and atrocities towards women. During the event, Fatehgarh Sahib BJP candidate Shri Gejja Ram Valmiki, Bathinda Candidate Parampal Kaur Sindhu and other leaders were present on the stage.

Respected Shri Singh stated that whenever someone asks about Punjab, the conversation always revolves around the land where might, strength, courage, bravery, and patriotism converge. This land belongs to Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s religion, knowledge, and philosophy. Guru Nanak Dev Ji is renowned worldwide, and people know about him. Brave warriors like Guru Gobind Singh Ji and Shaheed Bhagat Singh were born on this land of Punjab. Punjab is the land of Gurus, the land of braves, and also the land of farmers. The BJP government has served the country in accordance with the teachings of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, and it is only under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji that the BJP government has genuinely cared for Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s teachings. 

Hon’ble Shri Singh highlighted that the BJP government facilitated the construction of the Kartarpur Corridor, removing the restriction on foreign funds at the Harmandir Sahib. The BJP government celebrated the ‘Guru Parv’ with full reverence both nationally and internationally. The BJP government decided to celebrate ‘Veer Bal Diwas‘ in memory of Sahibzadas on December 26. Sikh and the Hindu community should understand that if the Sikh community hadn’t made sacrifices, Indian culture would be endangered today. However, in Punjab, there is an Aam Aadmi Party government whose leaders are in jail in connection with the Delhi liquor scam. Any leader should have such morality that if accused in any scam, they should resign from their position until proven innocent. When Shri Lal Krishna Advani faced allegations he resigned from Parliament membership stating he would return only once proven innocent. The public has to be careful while electing a government.  However, Delhi Chief Minister and AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal refused to resign from his position as Chief Minister after going to jail in the liquor scam case, stating that he would govern from the jail. We have heard about work from the office and work from home, but for the first time, we have encountered something like work from jail. The character of a party is reflected by the character of its leader. During the agitation, Kejriwal’s mentor, Anna Hazare had said that the movement against Congress’ corruption should not be politically exploited, and hence, no political party should be formed. However, Arvind Kejriwal did not listen to his mentor’s advice and went on to form the Aam Aadmi Party. Kejriwal had also stated that after becoming the Chief Minister, he would not reside in government bungalows. However, today, the Chief Minister’s residence has been renovated like ‘Sheeshmahal.’ 

Union Minister Shri Singh noted that AAP Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal was assaulted inside CM’s residence in the presence of the Chief Minister. Women’s dignity is an integral part of Indian culture, and it’s our responsibility to respect women, regardless of their political affiliation. Despite this incident, Kejriwal remained silent for 15 days and avoided making any comments. Those individuals shouldn’t hold the position of Chief Minister. The current Punjab CM belongs to the same party, with Arvind Kejriwal as his leader. 

Hon’ble Shri Singh stated that the BJP hasn’t misled the populace but has engaged in politics with integrity. While past Congress administrations, from Jawaharlal Nehru to Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi, and Manmohan Singh, merely pledged to eradicate poverty, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has uplift 25 crore poor out of poverty within just 9 years, driving the nation’s progress at an unparalleled pace. Today, the whole world is witnessing the creation of a new India with a new mindset. In 2014, the Indian economy was ranked 11th globally, but today, under the esteemed leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi Ji, India has risen to the fifth position in the world economy.    

Respected Shri Singh asserted that India will rank among the world’s top three economies by 2027. As per NITI Aayog, financial institutions, and economists, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has achieved the remarkable feat of uplifting 25 crore people from poverty. Punjab is a state of farmers and the Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji is committed to the upliftment of farmers. Presently, India offers the most economical urea globally, with a bag costing only 260 rupees compared to 3 thousand rupees in America.  Under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi, farmers receive financial aid of 6 thousand rupees annually. If this scheme had been under Congress rule, out of the ₹6 thousand allocated from Delhi, only ₹1 thousand would have reached the farmers, while the remaining ₹5 thousand would have been swallowed by corruption. However, the BJP government is committed to empowering and strengthening the farmers. Today, the brave sons of farmers confront the enemy bravely on the border.

Hon’ble Shri Singh emphasized that according to the American ambassador, ‘If you want to see the future come to India, if you want to realize the future come to India and if you want to work on future come to India. A Pakistani MP stated in the parliament of Pakistan that India is fast becoming a global superpower and Pakistan is begging before the world to save itself from destruction. Apart from this, Pakistan’s former minister Fawad Hussain, who claims Pakistan’s hand in the terrorist attacks in Uri and Pulwama, praises AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal and congress leader Rajiv Gandhi.  BJP prioritizes the nation’s dignity, culture, and honor over familial interests, following the teachings of Guru Nanak Dev Ji.

Respected Shri Singh emphasized that India has evolved into a strong nation under the leadership of Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji. India does not bow down to any country in the world and India is capable of giving a befitting reply to any nation that challenges India. BJP is determined that the BJP government will never let India’s honor and self-respect be compromised. Numerous development projects have been undertaken in Punjab, such as the operation of the Vande Bharat train. However, beyond development, the BJP is contesting elections with the aim of enhancing India’s global standing and pride. 

Hon’ble Shri Singh said that earlier, when India spoke at international forums, its words were not taken seriously, but today, under Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s leadership, when India speaks, the whole world listens carefully to India’s stand. The earlier perception about India used to be that it is a country of the poor, but today, that perception has changed. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji resolves that by 2047, India will stand as a developed nation in the world. At the pace India is progressing, by 2070-75, it will become the wealthiest country in the world.

Respected Shri Singh said that Arvind Kejriwal used to say that if the Aam Aadmi Party government is formed, all liquor shops will be closed, but now in Delhi, liquor shops have opened in every street. Even in Punjab, under the AAP government’s leadership, the drug business has grown, destroying the youth. Once the BJP government is formed in Punjab, all drug businesses will be permanently shut down.

Hon’ble Shri Singh said that INDI alliance alleges that Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji misuses the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to investigate against opposition parties. The truth is that during Congres’s rule, ED confiscated assets worth ₹32 lahks. Under the BJP government’s policy of zero tolerance for corruption, the ED has seized more than cash worth ₹22 thousand crores and confiscated assets worth more than ₹1 lakh crores. The INDI alliance accused the BJP of planning to establish dictatorship and amend the constitution after crossing the 400 seats. Although, it is the the Congress party that has dissolved the government more than 70 times after independence.

Respected Shri Singh said that Congress party and INDI alliance conspires to weaken the country. INC leader Charanjit Singh Channi referred to the attack on soldiers of the Indian army as an election stunt.  During Congress’s rule, terrorism was rampant across India, with no state immune to terrorist attacks. But now, there is no terrorist activity occurring in any part of India. During the Congress government in 2008, after the Mumbai terrorist attack, former Mumbai home minister remarked that such incidents are bound to happen. The INDI Alliance is spreading the misinformation among people regarding the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). The CAA was formulated in 2014 to address the plight of Hindu, Sikh, and Buddhist refugees who came from Pakistan. If any Hindu, Sikh, or Buddhist facing religious persecution in Bangladesh or Pakistan comes to India, BJP will grant them citizenship to honour their dignity.

Hon’ble Shri Singh said that after the setback of the Chandrayaan mission, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji reassured the scientists, and then India became the only country to attempt landing on the South Pole of the moon with Chandrayaan-3. Political analysts across the country are saying that the BJP is poised to form the government. Rahul Gandhi lost in Amethi and has moved to Kerala. After loosing in Raebareli, where will he go? The BJP government aims to implement “One Nation One Election” within the first five years of its tenure, combining the state assembly and Lok Sabha elections. Global leaders recognize India as the leader of the 21st century. In Punjab, the mining mafia, drug issues, and shooter gangs operate freely. The state is heavily indebted, yet the Chief Minister seems indifferent, focusing more on attending ‘Delhi Darbar’

Hon’ble Union Defence Minister Shri Rajnath Singh highlighted a statement made by Rahul Gandhi, where he acknowledged his understanding of the Indian political system due to his family’s legacy as Prime Ministers. Rahul Gandhi stated that this system discriminates against smaller castes. This statement by Rahul Gandhi exposes the truth about the Congress government, revealing that it was biased against backward, scheduled, and tribal classes in the country. Shri Rajnath Singh appealed to the people to make BJP Lok Sabha candidate Shri Gejja Ram Valmiki victorious by pressing the ‘Lotus‘ symbol.

Hon’ble Union Home Minister & Minister of Cooperation and Senior BJP leader Shri Amit Shah addressed a public meeting in Ludhiana, Punjab on Sunday. He condemned the infighting between Congress and AAP, highlighting that only the BJP can effectively work for the development of the state. During the event, Punjab BJP President Shri Sunil Jakhar, BJP National Secretary Shri Manjinder Singh Sirsa, former state BJP President Shri Vijay Sampla, and Ludhiana Lok Sabha candidate Shri Ravneet Singh Bittu among other leaders were present. 

Union Home Minister began his speech by paying tribute to Maharana Ranjit Singh, Bhagat Singh, and Lala Lajpat Rai. He emphasized Punjab’s dual role in ensuring national security on the border and feeding the entire nation. He acknowledged the sacrifices of Punjab soldiers who risk their lives to protect the country. Shri Shah highlighted Guru Teg Bahadur’s sacrifice for the Kashmiri Hindus and urged those who create divisions between Sikhs and Hindus to learn about Guru Teg Bahadur’s life. 

Shri Shah predicted that after the conclusion of the five phases of the election, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji would secure more than 310 seats and form the government for a third consecutive time. He expressed confidence that the sixth and seventh phases would ensure 400 seats for Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji by June 4th. He urged the voters of Punjab to support BJP candidates to foster a developing state under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji.

Union Home Minister stated that on June 4th, election results would be announced, but before that, on June 1st, Arvind Kejriwal would return to jail, and after the results, on June 6th, Rahul Gandhi would embark on a vacation to Bangkok. He contrasted the dedicated work ethic of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, who did not take a single leave in his 23 years of service as Chief Minister and Prime Minister. Shri Shah highlighted Prime Minister Modi’s commitment by noting his celebration of Diwali with soldiers on the border, juxtaposed with Rahul Gandhi’s summer vacation.

Shri Shah questioned the AAP and Congress, who were allies at the Centre but became enemies in Punjab, asking why there was infighting in Punjab when they were together in Delhi, Haryana, and Gujarat. He accused the Ghamandia alliance of being involved in corruption worth Rs 12 lakh crore but emphasized that no corruption charges had been alleged against Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji. The INDI Alliance leaders, who speak about Hindu-Sikh unity, learn from Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s efforts in developing the Kartarpur Sahib corridor while also facilitating the construction of the Ram Mandir. He speculated that if the Bharatiya Janata Party had been in power during independence, the Kartarpur Sahib Gurudwara would have been part of India rather than Pakistan. Additionally, he criticized the Congress government in 1971 for not reclaiming Kartarpur Sahib despite having almost 1 lakh Pakistani soldiers under India’s control after the war.

Union Home Minister emphasized that after 500 years, Prabhu Shri Ram finally reached his grand Mandir, a feat that Congress had obstructed for 70 years. He highlighted that when the public elected Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji for a second term, not only did he win the case for the Ram Mandir, but he also performed the Bhoomi Pujan ceremony and completed the “Pran Pratishtha” on January 22nd. Shri Shah mentioned that Aurangzeb had destroyed Kartarpur Sahib, Ram Mandir, and Kashi Vishwanath Mandir, but Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji worked for their reconstruction. He also cited the reconstruction of the Somnath Mandir with gold as an example of the Prime Minister’s dedication to restoring India’s cultural heritage. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has been steadfast in his efforts to combat terrorism in the country. He has also reiterated that Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) rightfully belongs to India. Despite attempts by Congress and AAP to intimidate us with Pakistan’s atomic bomb, it is BJP’s unwavering resolve to fully integrate PoK with India, affirming that it was, is, and will always remain an integral part of India.

Shri Shah highlighted the BJP’s implementation of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) to grant citizenship to refugees from Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan, noting opposition from Congress and AAP. He emphasized that the demand for One Rank One Pension (OROP) had been raised during Indira Gandhi’s time, but Congress had not acted upon it. However, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji implemented OROP, ensuring ₹1 Lakh 20 thousand crore was transferred into the bank accounts of Indian soldiers. The Congress has inflicted numerous wounds upon Punjab, spanning from Partition to allowing extremism to flourish, and even attempting the Sikh genocide in New Delhi. Moreover, both Congress and AAP are accused of exacerbating Punjab’s drug addiction crisis, thereby contributing to the state’s ongoing challenges.

 Union Home Minister stated that it is very painful for him to see Punjab’s youth in a state of drug addiction. The BJP has built infrastructure to address this issue. In the next 5 years, under Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s leadership, the BJP will eradicate the drug problem in Punjab from its roots. In the Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s third term, 17 NCB offices will be opened in Punjab. The BJP won’t let Punjab drown in the ocean of drugs. BJP won’t let Punjab burn in the fire of terrorism again. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji abolished Article 370 and ended terrorism in Kashmir. The entire Punjab has become a hub of corruption. Arvind Kejriwal has turned Punjab into an ATM of corruption, he takes money from Punjab for elections and legal battles. Punjab’s CM allies with Arvind Kejriwal everywhere, acting as his pilot. The people of Punjab are tired of the corruption plaguing the state.

Shri Shah stated that the Modi government has respected the Sikh community and their guru tradition. The BJP government initiated the celebration of ‘Veer Bal Diwas’ in honor of the Sahibzadas on December 26. BJP government facilitated the construction of the Kartarpur Corridor at a cost of 120 crores. The government also commemorated the 550th birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Sahib and the 350th birth anniversary of Guru Gobind Singh Sahib, issued postal stamps, and designated Sultanpur Lodhi and Amritsar as heritage cities. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji granted FCRA status to Sri Darbar Sahib, exempted langar and prasad from GST, provided compensation of ₹5 lakh to victims of Sikh riots, and ensured punishment for the culprits.

Union Home Minister stated that the AAP government is a government of broken promises. They promised to provide ₹1000 to every woman, but nobody received it. They claimed to make Punjab drug-free within a month but failed. They promised to open 16 medical colleges in the Punjab Vidhan Sabha, but not even one was opened. Punjab CM Bhagwant Singh Mann is incapable of bringing reforms to Punjab. The Aam Aadmi Party has tarnished Punjab’s honor. In just two years, they burdened Punjab with a debt of over 50,000 crores. Earlier, Akalis did it, then Congress did it, and now Bhagwant Mann is also doing the same. The Ayushman Bharat scheme initiated by Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji is not being implemented in Punjab. Punjab government is ‘Jhola Chhap Sarkar‘, CM Bhagwant Mann, instead of effectively distributing the free 5kg ration provided by the central government, is misleading the poor by distributing it with sacks bearing Arvind Kejriwal’s photo.

Shri Shah stated that in states where the BJP-led double-engine government is in power, development has thrived even in the face of challenging situations. In Gujarat, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, and everywhere else with BJP’s double-engine government, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has brought development. For the development of Punjab, to end separatism, to eradicate drugs, to bring back industries to Punjab, and to strengthen Hindu-Sikh unity in Punjab, people are urged to support Shri Ravneet Singh Bittu by voting for the ‘Lotus‘ symbol, aiming to secure ‘400 Paar‘ to re-elect Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji for a third term.

Hon’ble Union Home Minister & Minister of Cooperation Shri Amit Shah addressed public meetings in Karakat and Sasaram, Bihar on Sunday. Shri Shah criticized the RJD, Congress, and the INDI alliance for their misgovernance in Bihar for years and highlighted the developmental works undertaken by the BJP-led NDA government in the state. During the event, Union Minister Shri Nityanand Rai, NDA Karakat Lok Sabha Candidate and RLD President Shri Upendra Kushwaha, Sasaram Lok Sabha candidate Shri Shivesh Ram, Aurangabad candidate Shri Sushil Kumar Singh and others were present.

Shri Shah stated that the elections for the 6th phase have concluded and that by the 5th phase itself, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji is on track to win 310 seats and form the government. The elections in the 6th and 7th phases are crucial to achieve the ‘400 Paar’ seats. People must support the lotus symbol to ensure that Shri Narendra Modi Ji becomes Prime Minister for the third time. Every vote for BJP and NDA will directly go to Shri Narendra Modi Ji.

Hon’ble Union Home Minister & Minister of Cooperation emphasized that the contest is between two groups. On one side, there is the INDI Alliance involved in ₹12 lakh crore worth of corruption, and on the other side is Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, who has been the Chief Minister and Prime Minister for 23 years without a single allegation of corruption. On one side, features Rahul Gandhi who was born with a silver spoon and the other side, features Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, who was born in a poor, backward community. Rahul Gandhi, who leaves the country for vacationing abroad, and there is Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, who has not taken a single holiday in 23 years and celebrates Diwali with soldiers at the border. This election is between those who shoot bullets at Ram Bhakts and those who build the Ram Mandir.

Shri Shah highlighted that the area was once plagued by Naxalism, especially in the Obra block where many significant incidents occurred. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has worked to eradicate Naxalism from Jharkhand, Bihar, Odisha, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, and Madhya Pradesh. Areas like Budha Pahad in Jharkhand and Chakrabanda have been liberated from Naxalism under his leadership. If people vote incorrectly, parties like CPI(ML) will resurge and promote Naxalism again. The only option for the people of Karakat to prevent this is to support Shri Upendra Kushwaha and Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji.

Hon’ble Union Home Minister & Minister of Cooperation said that Lalu Yadav has taken refuge in an anti-backward party to make his son as the Chief Minister. Congress has always opposed the backward and extremely backward society. The Congress suppressed the Kakasaheb Kalelkar Commission report, preventing the implementation of reservations for the backward society. They also hindered the Mandal Commission from being implemented. When the Mandal Commission report was eventually accepted, Rajiv Gandhi also strongly opposed it. However, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji established the National Commission for Backward Classes (NCBC) working towards constitutional dignity for them. Congress always talks about uplifting the Dalit community in their election speeches, but during Congress rule, the budget for the welfare of the Dalit community was only ₹41 thousand crores. It was Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji who increased it to ₹1 lakh 65 thousand crores. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji declared April 14 as National Harmony Day, November 26 as Constitution Day, and initiated the development of places associated with Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, such as Mhow, London, Nagpur, Delhi, and Mumbai, as ‘Panchteerth’ sites.

Shri Shah stated that the ‘Mahagathbandhan’ has no candidate for the Prime Ministerial position. When a journalist asked the leader of the ‘Mahagathbandhan’ about their Prime Ministerial candidate, he replied, ‘Every year, each leader will take turns becoming the Prime Minister.’ However, only Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji can give Pakistan a befitting reply, protect from the COVID-19 pandemic, eradicate terrorism and Naxalism, uplift more than 60 crore poor, hoist the tricolor on the moon, and enhance the startup ecosystem. From East to West, North to South, chants of ‘Modi-Modi’ echo throughout the country. This chant signifies the aspiration to build a great India and transform Bihar into ‘Viksit Bihar’. Despite 10 years of Lalu Yadav’s government in the UPA, Bihar received only ₹2 lakh 80 thousand crores, whereas Hon’ble PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji has allocated ₹14 lakh 23 thousand crores for the state.

 Hon’ble Union Home Minister & Minister of Cooperation declared that PoK (Pakistan-occupied Kashmir) is part of India, and although the Congress party claims Pakistan has atomic bombs and PoK should not be demanded. But the BJP karyakarta and Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji does not fear atomic bombs. PoK was, is, and will remain part of India, and India will reclaim it without any hindrance. During Congress’s rule over 70 years, they kept the issue of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya unresolved, continually delaying and diverting it. In contrast, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji resolved the issue, won the case in five years, performed the Bhoomi Poojan, and on January 22, the “Pran Pratishtha” ceremony was conducted.

Shri Shah stated that Lalu Yadav and Rahul Gandhi talk about the poor but they haven’t done anything for them during their tenures. Lalu Yadav served as Chief Minister for 15 years and as a minister at the Centre for 10 years, while Rahul Gandhi’s family ruled the country for four generations. What have they done for the poor? When a son from a humble and backward community, Shri Narendra Modi Ji became Prime Minister, work for the poor began. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has provided 80 crore poor people with 5 kg of free grain, constructed toilets in 12 crore houses, provided houses under the PM Awas Yojana to 4 crore people, distributed Ujjwala gas connections to over 10 crore people, and ensured “Nal Se Jal” for 14 crore people. Additionally, through the Ayushman Yojana, 60 crore people received up to ₹5 lakh worth of free medical treatment.

Hon’ble Union Home Minister & Minister of Cooperation highlighted that during the COVID-19 pandemic, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji ensured free vaccinations for every poor person, safeguarding the nation. Lalu Yadav never recommended Bharat Ratna for Shri Karpoori Thakur Ji. It was Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji who honored Bihar’s leader, Shri Karpoori Thakur, with Bharat Ratna. Lalu Yadav talks about providing 100% reservation for the special community, while in West Bengal, Karnataka, and Hyderabad, the Indi Alliance cut the reservation for the backward community to give it to Muslims. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has promised that no one will touch the reservations for SC, ST, and OBC communities.

Shri Shah pointed out that Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji has had a complete majority for the past 10 years with the blessings of Bihar, and he has used this mandate to secure the country. Previously, there were frequent terrorist incidents, but Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji put an end to terrorism with surgical and air strikes. If people do not want a return to the jungle raj of kidnappings and killings in Bihar, they should reject Lalu Yadav’s alliance, which promotes the “Tel Pilawan, Lathiya Ghumawan” strategy, and support Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, who promotes the politics of development.

 Hon’ble Union Home Minister & Minister of Cooperation noted that under Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s leadership, the BJP government has constructed overbridges in Aurangabad, Ghuraru, and Rafiganj, expanded the National Highway, included Karakat in the Varanasi-Kolkata corridor, built a thermal power project, constructed a 25 km road from Barun to Jharkhand, developed a ring road around Sasaram city, provided houses to 1,56,000 poor people in Karakat, facilitated ₹5 lakh worth of medical treatment for 6,30,000 people, distributed 5 lakh gas connections, provided free grain to 7,31,000 people, and ensured “Nal Se Jal” in 8 lakh households. Shri Amit Shah urged voters to support BJP and NDA candidates and re-elect Shri Narendra Modi Ji as Prime Minister with a huge majority of “400 Paar” seats.

In the heart of Ghazipur, Prime Minister Narendra Modi assured the crowd of his transparent vision for a Viksit Bharat, pledging to thwart every obstruction posed by the opposition.

PM Modi initiated his address to the crowd, invoking a poignant memory from the past, “Whenever I come to Ghazipur, I’m reminded of a betrayal. After independence, Congress had sworn not to develop this area, forcing its people to live in suffocating poverty. This incident stands as a testament to how the INDI Alliance has consistently let Ghazipur down.”

PM Modi made the crowd aware by highlighting the stark contrast between the past and present, “Today, I feel immense satisfaction knowing our government provides free ration to every poor household. Even during the severe crisis of Corona, we ensured no one slept hungry. Modi’s government is spending lakhs of crores on this free ration scheme, ensuring no one faces the hardships experienced during the Congress-SP rule.”

The PM engaged in an open dialogue with the audience while drawing a sharp line of difference between the past and present governance, underscoring the transformative journey India has embarked upon under his leadership, “Congress mastered the art of delaying work and denying rights, even neglecting our soldiers’ One Rank One Pension (OROP) demand. It was under Modi that OROP was implemented. While dynastic leaders built palaces; the poor, farmers, labourers, Dalits, and deprived struggled. Modi’s government has changed lives. In 10 years, 25 crore people rose from poverty through empowering schemes. We’ve channelled PM-Awas into reality, opened bank accounts, electrified every village, provided water to every household, and ensured no poor person sells land for treatment with Ayushman cards. Now, Modi guarantees free treatment for all elderly above 70 years.”

PM yet again vividly illustrated the sharp realities, outlining the transformative impact of the current administration, “In the SP era, mafias roamed freely, flaunting their power in open jeeps, and opponents were gunned down with impunity. Riots defined UP, with two to three major riots every month, causing immense loss to the poor and shopkeepers. Under Yogi Ji’s government, riots and rioters have been stopped. SP-Congress will do anything for votes and power. The SP Shehzade once vowed to banish mafias but ended up bowing to them, even giving them tickets. Someone who cannot keep his word can never fight your battle.”

PM Modi warned the audience of the grave threat posed by the INDI Alliance to the rights of Dalits and backward classes, “The INDI Alliance is looting the reservations meant for Dalits and backward classes, conspiring to allocate them based on religion instead. They aim to strip reservations from castes like Pasi, Jatav, Lonia, Kurmi, Yadav, Bind, Nishad, and Patel. In Karnataka, they’ve already diverted OBC reservations to Muslims. Their scheme in Bengal has been exposed by the Calcutta High Court just two days ago. Nearly all OBC reservations in Bengal were being given to Muslims and infiltrators. Congress, SP, TMC—all are complicit in this assault on SC-ST-OBC reservations.”

“In a bold declaration, the INDI Alliance has vowed to reinstate Article 370 in Kashmir, a move that threatens to reignite terrorism and embolden Pakistan. But Ghazipur stands firm against such perilous propositions. Witnessing its own transformation, Ghazipur now symbolizes hope for Kashmir’s development. The people of Ghazipur reject regression; they embrace progress,” the PM further added to establish the truth.

In his concluding words, PM Modi urged Ghazipur to stand firmly behind the vision of a Viksit Bharat. Additionally, the PM also requested the crowd’s assistance in spreading the message of his greetings by visiting every doorstep.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi graced the historic lands of Pataliputra, Karakat & Buxar, Bihar, vowing to tirelessly drive the nation’s growth and prevent the opposition from dividing the country on the grounds of inequality.

As PM Modi further delved into his spirited address, he praised the dedication of BJP workers, attributing the party’s success to their tireless efforts. He humorously noted the popularity of Maner ladoos, urging supporters to have them ready for June 4th. PM Modi also pointed out that the opposition’s complaints about EVMs are the best indicator of NDA’s impending victory. He confidently declared that new records would be set in Pataliputra and across the nation, echoing the sentiment, “Phir Ek Baar…Modi Sarkar!”

PM Modi highlighted the stark contrast between his vision and the opposition’s focus. On one side, he is dedicated to building a Viksit and Aatmanirbhar Bharat by 2047, “working tirelessly to enhance national security and modernize infrastructure.” On the other side, “the INDI Alliance has no agenda but to criticize Modi and cater to their vote bank. The choice is clear: progress and development with Modi, or constant negativity with the INDI Alliance.”

PM Modi emphasized the importance of the upcoming election, not just for choosing MPs but for selecting the right PM. He underscored India’s need for a strong leader who can showcase the nation’s power on the global stage. Contrasting this vision, the PM highlighted the INDI Alliance’s plan to deliver five different PMs in five years, “The contenders? A parade of family members: sons and daughters from the Gandhi, SP, National Conference, NCP, TMC, AAP, fake Shiv Sena, and RJD families. Their aim is to play musical chairs with the Prime Minister’s seat, driven by dynastic politics rather than national interest.”

In his address, PM Modi also underscored Bihar’s historic role in championing social justice and the right to reservation for SC/ST/OBC communities. However, he revealed a bitter truth. “The RJD-Congress and their allies are betraying these very communities. The Constitution and Baba Saheb Ambedkar clearly state there should be no reservation based on religion. Yet, the RJD-Congress are conspiring to allocate SC/ST/OBC quotas to their vote bank, undermining constitutional principles,” he remarked.

PM Modi also exposed this betrayal, stating, “Every caste, including Yadav, Kurmi, Kushwaha, Kalwar, Teli, Suri, Kanu, Nishad, Paswan, Ravidas, and Musahar, has been robbed of their rightful reservation. These actions are not just unconstitutional but also a grave injustice to the children of Dalits, backward classes, and tribals, whose admission quotas have been unfairly reduced in favour of Muslims.” This, he emphasized, is a stark violation of the principles of social justice and the Constitution.

PM Modi shared his understanding of what it means to have one’s rights taken away. This empathy drives his commitment to ensuring the poor receive their due. He reminded the crowd of the days “when Congress allowed grains to rot while refusing to feed the poor”, contrasting it with his own “policy of opening warehouse doors to every needy person, ensuring no mother stays awake worrying about feeding her child.”

PM Modi also announced plans to build more pucca houses, equipped with toilets, electricity, cheap gas cylinders, and tap water. He mentioned about the PM Suryaghar Yojana, which aims to reduce electricity bills to zero and install solar panels, allowing families to use free electricity and even earn by selling the surplus to the government.

In his second mega rally of the day in Karakat, Bihar, the PM discussed the baseless fears spread by the opposition, “The INDI Alliance warned that building a temple in Ayodhya would cause chaos. Today, Ramlala sits in a grand temple, and there is no unrest. They claimed that removing Article 370 from Jammu and Kashmir would ignite turmoil. Modi, undeterred by their threats, decisively removed Article 370.”

The PM delivered a strong message against corruption, “I guarantee the people of Bihar that those who looted the poor and exploited land in exchange for jobs will face justice. The countdown to their jail journey has begun. Once their helicopter rides end, their prison terms will start. The NDA government will not spare those who looted Bihar. This is Modi Ki Guarantee!”

PM Modi emphasized the disregard of the INDI Alliance for the dignity of Biharis, he observed, “These INDI Alliance politicians will do anything for their political interests. They remain silent when Biharis are insulted. A Congress leader from Punjab insulted Bihari labourers, declaring they wouldn’t be allowed to buy houses in Punjab. Did the Congress Shahi family apologize? No. Did RJD leaders stand up for Biharis? No. RJD lacks the courage to challenge Congress on this insult to Biharis.”

The PM also made another solemn promise to the people of Bihar: “Now, every elder in every family of Bihar will receive free treatment under my responsibility.”

While addressing the third massive rally of the day in Buxar, Bihar, PM Modi called attention to the forces obstructing India’s progress, “Today, the Mahayagya of a Viksit Bharat is in progress. You can see who is hindering this national effort. When India stands united, these forces mock our resolve for development. While the whole country celebrates and Buxar sends gifts for Ramlala, who boycotts the consecration and calls the temple impure? These are the people of Congress, RJD, and the INDI Alliance. They obstruct every sacred effort. People of the virtuous land of Buxar, will you not answer these forces? Will they not get a full response?”

Amid the fervour of election season, PM Modi emphasized the NDA government’s achievements and pledges for the future, “The NDA government has a proven track record and a clear vision for the future. We’ve provided PM-Awas to 4 crore poor people. We gave free Ayushman cards for treatment and will extend this to all elderly above 70. With your vote, we’ll offer free electricity through the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana, make 3 crore sisters Lakhpati Didis, and continue free ration for 5 years. We’ll ensure terrorism and Naxalism don’t resurface.”

“But why do the INDI Alliance ask for your votes? They want to cancel CAA, allow infiltrators free entry, re-impose Article 370 in Kashmir, and endanger the lives of our sons on the border. Choose wisely, vote for BJP,” the PM further asked as he wanted the audience to introspect the true intentions of the Opposition.

As he concluded his speech, PM Modi urged everyone to visit local temples and seek blessings for a Viksit Bharat. He passionately encouraged the crowd to vote for the BJP, saying, “Let’s ensure victory for a stronger, prosperous nation!”
