Our mantra is Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas but SP, BSP & Congress believes in Kuch Ka Sath, Kuch Ka Hi Vikas: PM
When Eastern part of India scales new heights of development, then only overall progress of the country would happen: PM
Central Government would continue to undertake measures that would fight corruption: PM
Every Indian should have his or her own home by 2022: PM

PM Narendra Modi campaigned in Varanasi today. Addressing a huge gathering, Shri Narendra Modi thanked them for the affection people of the state have ushered. Quoting Mark Twain, Shri Modi said that Banaras was older than history and tradition.

The Prime Minister said BJP’s aim was of a Banaras that was modern yet one that retained its heritage. He added further, “Our mantra is Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas but SP, BSP & Congress believes in Kuch Ka Sath, Kuch Ka Hi Vikas.”

Shri Modi said that eastern part of India has to scale new heights of development and then only overall progress of the country would happen. He remarked, “This land of Uttar Pradesh, this part of the state is blessed with very talented people. The potential for development is immense.”

Citing that Uttar Pradesh had been gripped in corruption, the Prime Minister opined, “Shouldn't corruption come to an end? It’s been so many years since we attained freedom but a small section misused their power and position.” He said that the Central Government would continue to undertake measures that would fight corruption. He also said that the Government would ensure that rights of the honest citizens are protected.

Shri Modi further stated, “Earlier the question being asked would be- how much money was lost (in the scams), now the question is- how much money has returned back.”

Shri Modi complemented the armed forces for the successful surgical strikes across the LoC. He said, “We are proud of our jawans. They have made the entire nation proud. It is sad that driven by politics, some people wanted proof of surgical strikes and were asking did any Indian soldier die.” He also spoke at length about OROP and how previous government neglected the difficulties of the ex-servicemen.

PM Modi stressed on infrastructure development in Kashi and said, “We wanted to build a ring road but the state government did not cooperate and kept obstructing that. They did not cooperate.”

The PM also shed light on Government’s aim of housing for all by 2022. “Every Indian should have his or her own home by 2022. It is sad that so many years after independence also people do not have homes. We have undertaken measures so that everyone have their homes.”

August 14, 2026
PM shares Sanskrit Subhashitam highlighting the power of hard work and human endeavor

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi today stated that as we mark Partition Horrors Remembrance Day, we recall the courage of all those who were impacted by Partition. He noted that it was a moment in history that tore apart several lives, where families were uprooted, loved ones were lost, and immense suffering was endured.

The Prime Minister highlighted that at the same time, overcoming this, people rebuilt their lives from nothing, turned adversity into achievement, and contributed immensely to our nation’s progress. He observed that their life journeys remind us of the strength of the human spirit. Shri Modi expressed hope that this day may deepen our resolve to preserve harmony and brotherhood in our nation and collectively work towards building a Viksit Bharat.

The Prime Minister offered his heartfelt tributes to all those countrymen who, emerging from that horrific period, made invaluable contributions to the progress of the country. He stated that through their courage and capability, they showed how resolutions are accomplished even in adverse circumstances. Shri Modi called upon everyone to further strengthen the national spirit of goodwill and solidarity.

Sharing a Subhashitam, the Prime Minister emphasized that it is through hard work, enterprise, and dedicated effort that diverse arts, science, technological skills, craftsmanship, and innovations flourish, paving the way for success. He added that therefore, one should not remain dependent on fate; rather, one should move steadily towards one's goals with courage, diligence, and persistent effort, for it is human endeavor that shapes destiny.

In a series of posts on X, the Prime Minister wrote:

"Today we mark #PartitionHorrorsRemembranceDay. We recall the courage of all those who were impacted by Partition. It was a moment in history that tore apart several lives…families were uprooted, loved ones were lost and immense suffering was endured.

At the same time, overcoming this, people rebuilt their lives from nothing, turned adversity into achievement and contributed immensely to our nation’s progress. Their life journeys remind us of the strength of the human spirit.

May this day deepen our resolve to preserve harmony and brotherhood in our nation and collectively work towards building a Viksit Bharat."

"विभाजन विभीषिका स्मृति दिवस पर उन सभी देशवासियों का हृदय से नमन, जिन्होंने उस वीभत्स दौर से निकलकर देश की प्रगति में अमूल्य योगदान दिया। उन्होंने अपने साहस और सामर्थ्य से दिखाया कि कैसे विपरीत परिस्थितियों में भी संकल्पों को सिद्ध किया जाता है। आइए, सद्भावना और एकजुटता की राष्ट्रीय भावना को और सशक्त करें।

उद्यमस्य प्रसादेन दृश्यन्ते विविधाः कलाः।
कातरा एव जल्पन्ति यद् भाव्यं तद् भविष्यति॥”

It is through hard work, enterprise and dedicated effort that diverse arts, science, technological skills, craftsmanship and innovations flourish, paving the way for success. Therefore, one should not remain dependent on fate; rather, one should move steadily towards one's goals with courage, diligence and persistent effort, for it is human endeavor that shapes destiny.
