Congress is anti-Gujarat: PM Modi in Gujarat

The Congress’ latest scam is ‘Tughlaq Road Chunavi Ghotala’ in which huge amounts of illicit cash has been discovered from senior Congress aides: PM Modi in Gujarat
The Congress totally forgot Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, who played a significant role in preserving the Somnath temple and continues to disrespect Patel’s great legacy: PM Modi
Whether it is about providing the poor with access to sanitation, clean cooking fuel and electricity or about making India the sixth largest economy in the world, our government has achieved historic milestones in the last five years: Prime Minister Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed two large public rallies in Junagadh and Songadh in Gujarat today.

Lashing out at the Congress for the ‘Tughlaq Road Chunavi Ghotala’ in which huge amounts of illicit cash has been discovered by the Income Tax officers during their recent raids in Madhya Pradesh Congress aides, PM Modi said, “People have seen how huge amounts of cash have been discovered from senior Congress people. This is the latest scam of the Congress-‘Tughlaq Road Chunavi Ghotala.’ This is the money that Congress politicians have diverted from welfare schemes of the poor and are using it to enrich themselves.”

Enlisting the significant milestones achieved by the government since 2014, Prime Minister Modi said that while the country had taken rapid strides in improving the lives of its people, it was noteworthy that this government had achieved all this despite being totally free from corruption, a malice that was endemic in Congress years. He added, “Whether it is about providing the poor with access to sanitation, clean cooking fuel and electricity or about making India the sixth largest economy in the world, our government has achieved historic milestones in the last five years without indulging in any corruption to get our tasks done. This is a historic achievement in its own right.” PM Modi further spoke about the growing popularity of the ‘Main Bhi Chowkidar’ movement across all sections of society and expressed delight that the citizens were standing besides him and doing their bit for the country, thus imbibing the true spirit of a ‘Chowkidar.’ 

Launching a scathing attack on the Congress for disrespecting great leaders like Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Morarji Desai, PM Modi said, “The country knows what the first-family of Congress did to Sardar Patel. The Congress totally forgot Sardar Patel, who played a significant role in preserving the Somnath temple and continues to disrespect Patel’s great legacy. Similarly, Morarji Desai also suffered the same fate when the Congress toppled his government because Morarji Bapu did not bow down to the first-family and was a man of principles. Today, the Congress is extremely shocked because they could not harm the government of this ‘Chowkidar’ (PM Modi) in the last five years.” 

 

Urging his supporters to turn out and vote for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections in support of the BJP, Prime Minister Modi asserted that only the stability, transparency and decisiveness of a BJP government can fully address the issues of a developing economy like India while also working tirelessly towards fulfilling the aspirations of the young, 21st century India. He further added that a failure to elect such a government will give a chance to power to opportunist alliances like the ‘Maha-milawat’ and strengthen the voices of those parties that support decisions like having a separate PM for Jammu and Kashmir or weakening the Indian armed forces. He reminded people to not fall prey to the false, unrealistic promises in the Congress ‘Dhakosala-Patr’ because that would lead to a catastrophic downfall for the economy.

PM chairs 53rd PRAGATI Meeting
August 25, 2026
PM reviews six key infrastructure projects across the Railway, Road and Power sectors
Projects reviewed span across 9 States with cumulative investment of more than ₹30,000 crore
PM says Infrastructure projects should be viewed as an integrated whole, rather than as individual sections or packages
PM calls for continuous reforms across all stages of project implementation and a proactive work culture across Ministries and States
PM says Speed must go hand-in-hand with quality
While reviewing AgriStack, PM emphasises the need to leverage the latest digital technologies including AI to derive greater value from agricultural data
On cyber fraud and ‘digital arrest’, PM stresses training, public awareness, cyber-safety education and coordinated action

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi chaired the 53rd meeting of PRAGATI, the ICT-enabled, multi-modal platform for Pro-Active Governance and Timely Implementation, at Seva Teerth earlier today.

During the meeting, Prime Minister reviewed six key infrastructure projects across the Railway, Road and Power sectors, spanning nine States with a cumulative cost of more than ₹30,000 crore. The projects, significant for strengthening connectivity, supporting industrial and economic activity and improving public services, were reviewed with particular emphasis on adherence to timelines, inter-agency coordination, resolution of pending issues and expeditious completion.

Prime Minister emphasised that delays in infrastructure projects have consequences beyond cost escalation, as they also postpone the benefits intended for citizens, businesses and the economy. He said that infrastructure projects should be viewed and monitored as an integrated whole, rather than as isolated sections, stretches or packages. He noted that progress in individual packages should ultimately translate into timely completion and operationalisation of the entire project. Ministries and States were therefore asked to adopt an end-to-end approach, and address critical gaps that could delay the overall commissioning and delivery of benefits. He called for fostering a proactive work culture across Ministries and State Governments, with greater ownership at every level of project implementation.

Prime Minister stressed the need to explore common utility corridors for infrastructure services, wherever feasible, particularly while planning major transport and infrastructure projects. He called upon Ministries and States to examine such integrated approaches at the planning stage itself, keeping in view their technical and economic feasibility.

Prime Minister said that speed of execution must be accompanied by uncompromising quality. He called upon Ministries, States and implementing agencies to adopt modern technologies and strengthen quality assurance and supervision at every stage.

While reviewing AgriStack under the Digital Agriculture Mission, Prime Minister emphasised the need to leverage the latest digital technologies, including Artificial Intelligence, to derive greater value from agricultural data. He stressed that the data ecosystem should be effectively utilised across the agricultural value chain, from input planning to processing, enabling more informed interventions, better targeting and data-driven decision-making. He appreciated the efforts of the States and the Central Government in building the AgriStack ecosystem and called for further strengthening its use for delivering better outcomes for farmers.

During the review of cyber fraud cases, including incidents of digital arrest, Prime Minister said that prevention must be strengthened through a sustained focus on training, awareness and education. He stressed the need for continuous and targeted public-awareness campaigns, particularly for senior citizens, youth and other vulnerable sections, to familiarise them with common fraud techniques, warning signs and safe digital practices. He also called for regular capacity-building of personnel involved so that emerging modes of cyber fraud are identified and acted upon swiftly.
