Bengal farmers have been deprived of Rs 14,000 that was delivered to accounts of farmers all across India: PM Modi in Bengal

Ahead of West Bengal polls, PM Modi today addressed a public meeting in Bankura, West Bengal. Impressed by the huge turnout at the rally, the PM said, “The picture of Bankura today witness that people of Bengal have decided on May 2, 'Didi jacche Ashol Poriborton ashche, Ashol Poriborton ashche’. BJP will bring the Ashol Poriborton in Bengal - to increase the pride of Bengal. Ashol Poriborton - to bring a government in Bengal that serves the poor and remove their problems.”

Hitting out at Mamata Banerjee, PM Modi said, “The game of Corruption - Cholbe naa, the game of Syndicate - Cholbe naa and the game of cut money - Cholbe naa. If persecution and deprivation was on your mind, then why did you chant the mantra of Ma, mati, manush? After the BJP forms the government, maa'er pujo hobe, maatir tilak hobe aar manusher somman hobe.”

Taking a jibe at the TMC for his graffiti, PM Modi said, “I have seen graffiti humiliating me made by Didi's partymen on walls wherein she is hitting my head with her foot and playing football. Didi, you can kick me. But I won't allow you to kick away the development of Bengal and people's dreams.”

Addressing the massive gathering, the Prime Minister accused Mamata Didi for making hollow announcements in the last 10 years, he said, “Didi, you have only made empty promises in the last 10 years, where is the work you claim to have done? You keep saying 'Khela Hobe' while people of West Bengal have decided 'Khela Shesh Hobe'. Didi, the games of corruption, syndicate, cut-money will have to end.

Slamming the Left, Congress and the TMC for taking Bengal backwards, he asserted, “Congress, left and TMC are all to be blamed for development eluding Bengal. All there have wasted a lot of time of your previous generations. I can't let your futures be ruined. I call upon the first time voters to vote and make the dream of Sonar Bangla come true.”

PM Modi slammed TMC government for not doing enough to reach piped water to people. He said, “Jal Jeevan Mission, Ayushman Bharat and other central schemes will be taken up in priority once BJP government comes to power.” “Terracota art from Bankura-Bishnupur region can play a major role in the Aatmanirbhar Bharat dream,” he added.

Asserting that BJP works to schemes, TMC plays by scams, PM Modi stated, “All central schemes that were to be delivered through the state government have ended up in scams. Bengal farmers have been deprived of Rs 14,000 that was delivered to accounts of farmers all across India.”

The PM remarked, “The more I question Didi, the angrier she gets. Now she says that she doesn't like my face. Didi, in democracy, it is the public service & not the face which is put to test. Didi is already asking questions on EVM. It is the same EVM that kept her in power for 10 years. She is already witnessing her defeat in the upcoming elections.”

Urging the people of Bengal to vote, PM Modi said, “Every person in Bengal must exercise their power to vote without any fear. Ebar gorbo sonar Bangla, ebar aschhe BJP.”

PM Modi’s departure statement ahead of his visit to France and Slovak Republic
June 13, 2026

At the invitation of H.E. Mr. Emmanuel Macron, President of the French Republic and H.E. Mr. Robert Fico, Prime Minister of the Slovak Republic, I will be undertaking a visit to France and the Slovak Republic from 13 to 18 June 2026.

France occupies a special place in India’s strategic vision. Earlier this year, President Macron visited India and we elevated our relationship to a Special Global Strategic Partnership. When I meet President Macron in Nice, we will review the progress made since February, and chart the next steps in our cooperation. I look forward to our discussions on pressing global issues of mutual interest as well.

In Nice, I also eagerly look forward to inaugurating ‘Bharat Innovates’ along with President Macron on 14 June 2026. This landmark event, being held against the backdrop of the India-France Year of Innovation, will connect India’s most promising start-ups with global investment and serve as a major accelerator for innovations emerging from India's higher education ecosystem.

From Nice, I will travel to the Slovak Republic for a State Visit from 14-15 June 2026, the first ever visit by an Indian Prime Minister since Slovakia’s independence in 1993. This historic visit builds on the strong momentum in our bilateral relationship. I look forward to holding discussions with President Pellegrini and Prime Minister Fico in Bratislava. I will also have the opportunity to interact with Slovak business leaders. Building on the momentum of the India-EU Free Trade Agreement, the visit will further energize our Strategic Partnership with the European Union, of which Slovakia is an important and valued member.

From Slovakia, I will travel to Evian, where I will participate in the G7 Summit on 16 and 17 June 2026. India’s presence at the G7 reflects the trust our partners place in us and our growing global profile. This is the 8th consecutive G7 Summit to which India has been invited. At the G7, India will not only speak for itself, but it will also give voice to the aspirations of the Global South.

I will conclude my visit to France in Paris on 18 June 2026 where I will attend the VivaTech 2026 alongside President Macron. VivaTech is Europe’s foremost gathering of technology and innovation, and India will have the largest national pavilion at this edition, a fitting symbol of the enormous potential for partnership between Indian and European innovation ecosystems. I also look forward to meeting the members of the vibrant Indian community in Paris, who have been a living bridge between our two nations.

I am confident that my visits to France and the Slovak Republic will reinforce India’s deepening engagement with both Europe and the G7, and showcase our steadfast commitment to expanding the horizon of our partnerships with the continent and beyond.
