Siyavar Ramchandra Ki Jai!

My dear countrymen, Ram Ram!

Some moments of life change for the better due to divine blessings.

Today is a sacred occasion for all the Indians and for the devotees of Lord Ram spread across the world! Everywhere, there is an enchanting atmosphere of devotion to Lord Ram! The melodious chants of Ram, the exquisite beauty of Ram bhajans in all directions! Everyone is eagerly waiting for January 22, that historic sacred moment. And now, there are only 11 days left for the consecration of the idol of Lord Ram in Ayodhya. I consider myself fortunate to witness this auspicious occasion. It is a time for me to experience moments beyond imagination.

I am emotional, overwhelmed with feelings! I am experiencing a unique sense of emotion and devotion for the first time in my life. This emotional journey within me is not an expression but an opportunity for experience. Despite my desire, I am unable to encapsulate its depth, expansiveness, and intensity in words. I believe you can understand my situation.

The dream that many generations have cherished in their hearts for years as a resolution, I am fortunate to be present at its fulfilment. God has made me a representative of all Indians.

“निमित्त मात्रम् भव सव्य-साचिन्”।

This is a great responsibility. As stated in our scriptures, we are required to awaken divine consciousness within ourselves for the ‘yagna’ and worship of God. For this purpose, the scriptures prescribe vows and strict rules that must be followed before the consecration of the idol. Therefore, based on the guidance I have received from some ascetic souls and great beings on this spiritual journey... those who have suggested ‘Yama-Niyama’ (principles of moral and ethical conduct) … I am beginning a special observance of 11 days from today.

On this sacred occasion, I pray at the feet of God... I remember the virtue of sages, ascetics, and contemplative souls... and I pray to the people, who are the form of God, to bless me so that there is no deficiency in my thoughts, words, and actions.

Friends,

It is my privilege to begin my 11-day observance from the sacred place of Nasik Dham-Panchavati. Panchavati is the holy land where Lord Ram spent a significant amount of time.

Today is also a happy coincidence for me as it marks the birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda. Swami Vivekananda was the one who revitalized the soul of Bharat, long oppressed for centuries. Today, the same self-confidence is before everyone as the grand Ram Temple, representing our identity.

Adding to this auspicious day is the birth anniversary of Mata Jijabai who gave birth to a great human in the form of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. The indomitable form in which we see our Bharat today is significantly influenced by the immense contribution of Mata Jijabai.

And friends,

When I am recalling the virtuous memory of Mata Jijabai, it naturally brings back memories of my own mother. My mother used to chant the name of Sita-Ram until the end of her life.

Friends,

प्राण प्रतिष्ठा की मंगल-घड़ी...

चराचर सृष्टि का वो चैतन्य पल...

आध्यात्मिक अनुभूति का वो अवसर...

गर्भगृह में उस पल क्या कुछ नहीं होगा... !!!

(The auspicious moment of consecration...

That conscious moment of animate and inanimate creation...

The opportunity for spiritual experience...

In the sanctum, what wonders await in that moment...!!!)

Friends,

I will indeed be a witness to that sacred moment in the form of the body, but 1.4 billion Indians will be with me in my mind and in my every heartbeat. You will be with me... Every devotee of Ram will be with me. And that conscious moment will be a shared experience for all of us. I will go there drawing inspiration from the countless personalities dedicating their lives to the Ram Temple.

त्याग-तपस्या की वो मूर्तियां...

500 साल का धैर्य...

दीर्घ धैर्य का वो काल...

अनगिनत त्याग और तपस्या की घटनाएं...

दानियों की...बलिदानियों की...गाथाएं...

(The icons of sacrifice and penance...

500 years of patience...

An era of enduring patience...

Countless instances of sacrifice and penance...

Stories of donors... stories of sacrifices...)

There are many people whose names are unknown, yet their lives have had one singular goal—the magnificent construction of the Ram Temple. The memories of countless individuals will be with me.

When 1.4 billion countrymen will connect with me from their hearts in that moment, and when I enter the sanctum carrying your energy, I will feel that I am not alone, but you all are with me too.

Friends, these 11 days will be a personal observance for me, but my emotions are with the entire world. I pray that you also stay connected with me from your hearts.

I will offer your emotions with the same devotion that resonates within me at the feet of Ram Lalla.

Friends,

We all know the truth that God is formless. However, God, even in his physical form, empowers our spiritual journey. I have personally witnessed and felt the presence of God in the form of the people. When the same people in the form of God manifest emotions and shower blessings, I also experience a new surge of energy. Today, I seek your blessings. Therefore, I pray that you express your feelings in words, in writing, and bless me. Each word of your blessing is not just a word for me but a mantra. It will certainly work as the power of a mantra. You can directly reach me with your words and emotions through the NaMo app.

Let's all immerse ourselves in devotion to Lord Ram. With this sentiment, I greet all the devotees of Ram.

Jai Siya Ram

Jai Siya Ram

PM Modi addresses BJP karyakartas at felicitation of New Party President
January 20, 2026
Our presidents change, but our ideals do not. The leadership changes, but the direction remains the same: PM Modi at BJP HQ
Nitin Nabin ji has youthful energy and long experience of working in organisation, this will be useful for every party karyakarta, says PM Modi
PM Modi says the party will be in the hands of Nitin Nabin ji, who is part of the generation which has seen India transform, economically and technologically
BJP has focused on social justice and last-mile delivery of welfare schemes, ensuring benefits reach the poorest and most marginalised sections of society: PM
In Thiruvananthapuram, the capital of Kerala, the people snatched power from the Left after 45 years in the mayoral elections and placed their trust in BJP: PM

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today addressed party leaders and karyakartas during the felicitation ceremony of the newly elected BJP President, Nitin Nabin, at the party headquarters in New Delhi. Congratulating Nitin Nabin, the Prime Minister said, “The organisational election process reflects the BJP’s commitment to internal democracy, discipline and a karyakarta-centric culture. I congratulate karyakartas across the country for strengthening this democratic exercise.”

Highlighting the BJP’s leadership legacy, Prime Minister Modi said, “From Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee to Atal Bihari Vajpayee, L.K. Advani, Murli Manohar Joshi and other senior leaders, the BJP has grown through experience, service and organisational strength. Three consecutive BJP-NDA governments at the Centre reflect this rich tradition.”

Speaking on the leadership of Nitin Nabin, the PM remarked, “Organisational expansion and karyakarta development are the BJP’s core priorities.” He emphasised that the party follows a worker-first philosophy, adding that Nitin Nabin’s simplicity, organisational experience and youthful energy would further strengthen the party as India enters a crucial phase on the path to a Viksit Bharat.

Referring to the BJP’s ideological foundation, Prime Minister Modi said, “As the Jan Sangh completes 75 years, the BJP stands today as the world’s largest political party. Leadership may change, but the party’s ideals, direction and commitment to the nation remain constant.”

On public trust and electoral growth, the Prime Minister observed that over the past 11 years, the BJP has consistently expanded its footprint across states and institutions. He noted that the party has gained the confidence of citizens from Panchayats to Parliament, reflecting sustained public faith in its governance model. He said, “Over the past 11 years, the BJP has formed governments for the first time on its own in Haryana, Assam, Tripura and Odisha. In West Bengal and Telangana, the BJP has emerged as a strong and influential voice of the people.”

“Over the past one-and-a-half to two years, public trust in the BJP has strengthened further. Whether in Assembly elections or local body polls, the BJP’s strike rate has been unprecedented. During this period, Assembly elections were held in six states, of which the BJP-NDA won four,” he added.

Describing the BJP’s evolution into a party of governance, he said the party today represents stability, good governance and sensitivity. He highlighted that the BJP has focused on social justice and last-mile delivery of welfare schemes, ensuring benefits reach the poorest and most marginalised sections of society.

“Today, the BJP is also a party of governance. After independence, the country has seen different models of governance - the Congress's dynastic politics model, the Left's model, the regional parties' model, the era of unstable governments... but today the country is witnessing the BJP's model of stability, good governance, and development,” he said.

PM Modi asserted, “The people of the country are committed to building a Developed India by 2047. That is why the reform journey we began over the past 11 years has now become a Reform Express. We must accelerate the pace of reforms at the state and city levels wherever BJP-NDA governments are in power.”

Addressing national challenges, Prime Minister Modi said, “Decisive actions on Article 370, Triple Talaq and internal security show our resolve to put national interest first.” He added that combating challenges like infiltration, urban naxalism and dynastic politics remained a priority.

Concluding his address, the Prime Minister said, “The true strength of the BJP lies in its karyakartas, especially at the booth level. Connecting with every citizen, ensuring last-mile delivery of welfare schemes and working collectively for a Viksit Bharat remain our shared responsibility.”
