On the afternoon of Thursday 19th September 2013 Shri Narendra Modi launched the eGujCop project, which is a unique system that integrates IT into the working of the Home Department. Speaking on the occasion, the Chief Minister urged officials to derive maximum benefit of the initiative and expressed confidence that just like the police uniform gives a sense of safety to the people, this initiative will prevent wrongdoers from committing wrongs in society. He stated, “The strength from this application will be much more than holding AK 47s for our police force.” The Programme and the Chief Minister’s speech was heard by police and home guard officials across Gujarat.

Shri Modi described technology as a means to provide easy and effective governance and that he hoped to increase the trust of the people in the police through this eGujCop project. Shri Modi pointed that another aspect the Government is trying to achieve through this initiative is simplification. He pointed that the number of paperwork in police department is more than that of other departments also and this can be a step towards changing that.

He affirmed that the eGujCop project will help in crime detection as it would enable police officials to easily obtain entire case histories to nail the habitual offenders.

The Chief Minister talked about integrative governance and how one initiative can lead to a difference even in other spheres. Giving an example he said, “When we were working on Jyotigram Yojana, we knew it was not only about electricity. Once Jyotigram happens, so many other things happen. Due to power we could work on broadband connectivity. We could achieve long distance education.”

Talking about the police reforms in the state Shri Modi affirmed, “After infrastructure we focused on manpower. We worked on how to get the youngest and most techno savvy police force for the state. Due to that we changed the recruitment guidelines and the result is we have a techno savvy police force.”

Expressing confidence about the eGujCop project Shri Modi said, “This project will add a lot of strength. A lot can happen. Take the case of our Forensic Lab. Once its data attached with this, a big difference can take place.”

Urging the officers of the police force to take interest in technology the Chief Minister affirmed, “Let us take interest in technology. Let us learn this the way we learnt using mobile phones, What’s App and SMS. Let us derive maximum benefit from this and make a big contribution.”

Present during the function were Minister of State for Home Shri Rajnibhai Patel, Additional Chief Secretary Home Shri SK Nanda, Acting DGP Shri Pramod Kumar, Principal Secretary DST Shri Haidar among other dignitaries.

PM Modi’s Thiruvalla rally signals a big political shift in Keralam
April 04, 2026
If any group has benefited the most from NDA policies, it is women. Women empowerment is our priority, says PM Modi in Thiruvalla
The Sabarimala Railway Project will unlock new opportunities across the region, directly connecting Sabarimala with devotees: PM Modi
In Keralam, we will form the government, improve quality of life, and address the concerns of fishermen and local communities, says PM Modi
From April 16–18, Parliament will reconvene to deliberate on the Nari Shakti Vandan Act, aiming to ensure 33% women’s representation from 2029: PM

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed a massive and enthusiastic gathering in Thiruvalla, energising supporters and expressing confidence that Keralam is on the cusp of a historic political transformation. Highlighting the unprecedented turnout, the Prime Minister said, “The massive presence of people here in Thiruvalla, your trust in the NDA, and the affection and confidence shown by mothers and sisters reflect the mood across Keralam. The state is heading towards a major transformation.”

He added, “Voting will take place on April 9, and on May 4, the end of decades of misgovernance will be announced. The countdown for the exit of the LDF government has begun and for the first time, Keralam is set to witness a BJP-NDA government.”

Expressing gratitude to the people of Thiruvalla, PM Modi said that the town is emerging as a centre for the beginning of a new era of development in Keralam. He emphasised that the trust of the people is the greatest strength of the NDA.

The Prime Minister highlighted Keralam’s vast potential, noting that the state has been blessed with abundant natural resources and opportunities in sectors such as the blue economy, tourism and industry. However, he pointed out that despite these strengths, Keralam has lagged behind due to years of neglect by successive LDF and UDF governments.

Criticising the state’s infrastructure gaps, he remarked that poor connectivity, lack of major bridges and challenges in institutions like medical colleges have adversely impacted the quality of life for citizens.

Underscoring the Centre’s commitment, PM Modi stated that despite never having been in power in the state, the NDA government has left no stone unturned in supporting Keralam’s development. He said that the Centre has provided significantly higher financial assistance compared to previous governments.

He also highlighted key welfare initiatives, including housing under PM Awas Yojana, tap water connections under Jal Jeevan Mission and financial support to farmers through PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi. He noted that thousands of crores have been transferred directly to farmers, including rubber growers, benefiting the rural economy.

On infrastructure development, the Prime Minister spoke about the rapid expansion of national highways, improvements in railway infrastructure and the introduction of modern trains like Vande Bharat. He also emphasised the importance of the Sabarimala railway project, stating that it has the potential to boost connectivity, ease pilgrim travel, generate employment and accelerate local economic growth. He added that delays by the state government have held back such transformative projects.

Focusing on women-led development, PM Modi said, “The NDA government has placed women’s empowerment at the centre of its policies. From financial inclusion through Jan Dhan accounts to entrepreneurship through Mudra loans and support to self-help groups, our initiatives have aimed to transform the lives of women across the country.”

Addressing the huge gathering, PM Modi stated, “Our government has ensured 33% reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and State Assemblies. From 16-18 April, the Parliament will reconvene to deliberate on the Nari Shakti Vandan Act and take it forward. Our goal is to ensure 33% women’s representation in Parliament from 2029 onwards.”

He added, “There are rumours around rationalisation based on population. We want to assure the nation that no seats will be reduced. Seats will increase and this will benefit states across the country, including South India. A meeting has also been called with Congress and the INDI Alliance on this matter. I urge all political parties to support this bill in unison. This is about empowering women and strengthening our democracy.”

Addressing the issue of youth migration, the Prime Minister noted that lack of adequate opportunities has forced many young people from Keralam to seek employment elsewhere, including abroad. He stressed that corruption and divisive politics have hindered industrial growth and job creation in the state.

Referring to Indians working overseas, particularly in West Asia, PM Modi assured their families of the government’s continuous support. He said, “Even if your loved ones are far away, they are not alone. The Government of India stands firmly with every Indian, ensuring their safety and well-being, even in challenging global situations.”

Lashing out at the opposition, PM Modi reiterated, “The LDF and UDF people have become pro at lying. They said Kerala Files is a lie, they said Kashmir Files is a lie, they said Dhurandhar is a lie. These days, they are spreading lies about the FCRA and UCC. Goa has had UCC for decades, but they are spreading lies around it. They also did the same around the CAA. They are in the business of spreading lies.”

Criticising both LDF and UDF, the PM accused them of misleading the public and engaging in opportunistic politics. He said that both alliances have failed to prioritise Keralam’s development and are now focused only on attacking the BJP.

Concluding his address, PM Modi called upon the people of Keralam to vote for progress, stability and a better quality of life. He urged them to support the BJP-NDA to usher in a new era of development and ensure that Keralam reaches its full potential.
