Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed massive gatherings in Palamu and Lohardaga, Jharkhand, where he highlighted the achievements of his government and warned against the dangers posed by the Congress and its allies. Speaking to the enthusiastic crowd, PM Modi emphasized the significance of each vote and the transformative impact it can have on the nation.

PM Modi began his address by reminding the audience of the pivotal role their votes played in the 2014 elections, which led to the formation of the BJP-NDA government and the removal of the corrupt Congress regime. He underscored the remarkable progress India has witnessed under his leadership, citing the construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya after 500 years and the abrogation of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir as significant milestones.

"Today, India's trumpet is sounding loud across the world. Whether it's Naxalism or terrorism, now they are taking their last breaths," PM Modi said, emphasizing the decisive action taken against these threats.

Highlighting the contrast between his government and the previous Congress administration, PM Modi recalled the era of "love letters to Pakistan" and the subsequent terrorist attacks. He asserted, "Today, new India does not give a dossier, it strikes them in their hideouts," referring to the surgical and airstrike operations that shook Pakistan.

Reflecting on his decades of service, PM Modi emphasized his commitment to serving the nation and his dedication to eradicating corruption. "With your blessings, there is no allegation of corruption against me," he said, stressing the importance of the trust placed in him by the people.

“I have been serving the country as CM and PM for nearly 25 years. With your blessings, there is no allegation of corruption against me. The prayers of my mother and sisters are enough for me. I am still far from power, prestige, and comfort. Modi was born not for pleasure but for a mission,” he added.

Addressing the issue of wealth accumulation by the leaders of the JMM-Congress alliance, PM Modi condemned their corrupt practices and contrasted their self-serving motives with his vision for a developed India. "My heirs are all of you, your children, your grandchildren," he declared, highlighting his focus on empowering every Indian.

PM Modi also outlined the transformative impact of his government's schemes on the lives of the poor and marginalized. He cited the example of Palamu, where initiatives like the Aspirational Districts Programme have significantly improved infrastructure and quality of life.

"Before and after the launch of the Ambitious District Program in Palamu, there's a huge difference today," PM Modi said, noting the increase in pucca houses, access to electricity, and digital connectivity in the region.

Warning against the Congress and its allies, PM Modi cautioned the audience about their intentions to undermine reservation policies and exploit resources for political gain. He urged the people to reject such divisive politics and support the BJP-NDA alliance, which has consistently prioritized the interests of tribals and marginalized communities.

"In the last 10 years, Modi has given you a solid house, electricity, gas, water," PM Modi said, urging the people to continue their support in the upcoming elections. PM Modi reiterated his commitment to the welfare of every Indian and called upon the people of Palamu to vote for development and progress on May 13.

Addressing the second rally in Lohardaga, Jharkhand, PM Modi highlighted the significance of the tribal leader's legacy. “I am the first Prime Minister of the country to have the honor of paying respects to his village. Bhagwan Birsa Munda is not just a name for me. He is an inspiration for me," said PM Modi.

PM Modi emphasized his dedication to serving the poor and marginalized sections of society, despite facing criticism. "When I work for the poor, for the tribals, I face many criticisms. But I am only committed to your service," he stated. Pointing out the transformative impact of his government's initiatives such as Swachh Bharat Abhiyan and the Digital India program, PM Modi remarked, "Today, see if the situation in villages has changed or not. Today, the youth of my village are social media heroes."

The Prime Minister criticized the Congress party for its history of corruption and nepotism. "In their 60 years of rule, Congress gave the country nepotism, and corruption. When Congress wears glasses, it only sees one vote bank, and that is the Muslim vote bank," he said, contrasting it with BJP's inclusive development agenda.

PM Modi also addressed concerns regarding Naxalism and the security situation in Jharkhand. He highlighted the progress made in combating terrorism and ensuring the safety of tribal communities under his government's leadership. "It is the policies of Congress that gave rise to Naxalism's bloody violence in the country. But what is happening in Jharkhand is dangerous. Here, there is a game of promoting infiltrators and snatching the land of tribal families," PM Modi warned.

During his concluding address, PM Modi urged the people of Jharkhand to support BJP candidates in the upcoming elections. "This election is to form a strong government for a strong country,” he added. Also, the Prime Minister reiterated his commitment to serving the people and ensuring the development of Jharkhand.

PM in Andhra Pradesh

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will inaugurate the Alluri Sitarama Raju International Airport at Bhogapuram, Andhra Pradesh. Developed under the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) mode at a cost of over ₹5,640 crore, the Greenfield airport has been designed to handle 6 million passengers annually.

The passenger terminal building has been designed to provide a modern, seamless and efficient travel experience. The airport incorporates advanced infrastructure, cutting-edge technologies and sustainable features to enhance operational efficiency and meet future aviation requirements.

The airport has been equipped with advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Building Information Modelling (BIM), Airside 4.0 technologies, Airport Predictive Operations Centre (APOC), biometric passenger processing, automated baggage handling systems and intelligent operational monitoring solutions. These systems are expected to enhance operational efficiency, improve passenger convenience and safety, and optimise resource utilisation.

The project incorporates several sustainability features, including energy-efficient heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, energy-efficient lighting, a 5 MW solar power plant, rainwater harvesting, smart building management systems, waste management initiatives, electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and environmental monitoring measures. The terminal has been designed in accordance with Green Building Standards and is registered with the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC).

The airport's architectural design draws inspiration from the cultural heritage of Andhra Pradesh. The terminal's roof profile reflects the traditional Chuttilu cottages and the landscapes of the Araku Valley, while its flowing form symbolises the graceful movement of a flying fish, blending regional architectural elements with contemporary airport design. The airport is expected to provide a significant boost to tourism, trade, investment and employment generation in Andhra Pradesh while strengthening air connectivity in the region.

Prime Minister will lay the foundation stone of the ASIP Semiconductor Project at Visakhapatnam, being developed with an investment of over ₹460 crore. The facility is being developed by ASIP Technologies Pvt Ltd in partnership with APACT, Republic of Korea. It is Andhra Pradesh's first semiconductor manufacturing facility approved under the India Semiconductor Mission. The facility will manufacture around 96 million semiconductor chips annually and create high-skilled employment opportunities, while also fostering a robust ancillary ecosystem to support semiconductor manufacturing.

Prime Minister will lay the foundation stone for the Transmission System for Integration of Kurnool-IV Renewable Energy Zone (REZ) - Phase-I (4.5 GW), being implemented by POWERGRID through a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), with an investment of about ₹5,550 crore.

Prime Minister will also inaugurate the Transmission System for Kurnool Wind Energy Zone / Solar Energy Zone (Andhra Pradesh) – Part A & Part B, implemented at a cost of around ₹3,550 crore, and the Transmission Scheme for Solar Energy Zone in Ananthapuram (2,500 MW) and Kurnool (1,000 MW), implemented by POWERGRID at a cost of over ₹820 crore.

These transmission projects will enable the evacuation of power generated from the renewable energy zones in Kurnool and Ananthapuram and the transmission of power to beneficiaries across the country through the National Grid. They will facilitate the integration of a large quantum of renewable energy into the grid, improve the availability of clean power for demand centres, and contribute to India's energy transition and decarbonisation efforts by reducing dependence on fossil fuel-based power generation.

Prime Minister will dedicate to the nation and lay the foundation stone of National Highway projects worth over ₹1,880 crore. The projects to be dedicated include the four-lane access-controlled Greenfield highway from Recherla to Guruvaygudem section of NH-365BG, the four-lane access-controlled Greenfield highway from Guruvaygudem to Devarapalle section of NH-365BG, and the four-lane Tadipatri Bypass on NH-67. Prime Minister will also lay the foundation stone of the high-level bridge at Lingasamudram on the Penchalakona–Yerpedu section of NH-565. These projects will ease congestion in Vijayawada and several other cities, improve road safety, reduce travel distance and travel time between Visakhapatnam and Hyderabad, and promote regional connectivity.

PM in Karnataka

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will inaugurate the Swami Vivekananda Cultural Youth Centre - Viveka Smaraka at Mysuru, Karnataka.

The Viveka Smaraka commemorates Swami Vivekananda's historic visit to Mysuru in November 1892 during his journey across India. During his stay, he delivered discourses, interacted with scholars and devotees, and received the patronage of Maharaja Sri Chamarajendra Wadiyar X, whose support enabled his journey to the Parliament of Religions in Chicago in 1893.

Established at the historic Niranjana Math, the Viveka Smaraka is spread across a built-up area of over 81,000 square feet and comprises a main building and an annex block. It houses a 4-D Experience Centre, an exhibition hall, an amphitheatre with a seating capacity of around 700, classrooms, conference rooms, a library, a reading room, a meditation and yoga hall, and a book stall. The centre also includes dedicated facilities for students preparing for competitive examinations.

Dedicated to the life, message and ideals of Swami Vivekananda, the Cultural Youth Centre aims to serve as a vibrant hub for value-based education, leadership development and personality building. It is expected to benefit more than 10,000 students from nearby educational institutions, as well as urban and rural youth, through lectures, workshops, short-term courses and capacity-building programmes inspired by Swami Vivekananda's philosophy of nation-building and character development.
