The entire nation witnessed the lawlessness and violence that were unleashed by the TMC hooligans in Kolkata last night: PM Modi
The more violence and brutality Mamata Didi thrusts upon BJP karyakartas, the stronger their resolve becomes to defeat her with their votes: PM Modi in Bengal
Our top priority after these elections will be to strengthen border security in Bengal with the help of modern fencing technologies: Prime Minister Modi 

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed two massive rallies in Basirhat and Diamond Harbour in West Bengal this evening. The rallies saw PM Modi launch a fierce attack on the ruling TMC government and CM Mamata Bannerjee for unleashing politically-sponsored violence against BJP workers and leaders for merely being political adversaries.

Lashing out at the TMC government of CM Mamata Bannerjee, PM Modi said, “The entire nation witnessed the lawlessness and violence that were unleashed by the TMC hooligans in Kolkata last night and the incidents have further strengthened the resolve of BJP Karyakartas and the people in Bengal to bring about a change in the corrupt and autocratic regime in Bengal. The more violence and brutality Mamata Didi thrusts upon BJP karyakartas, the stronger their resolve becomes to defeat her with their votes in these elections. The expiry date of TMC hooliganism has long passed.”

 

Elaborating on his vision for the development of Bengal in the coming times, Prime Minister Modi spoke at length about the issue of illegal migrants crossing from neighbouring Bangladesh and criticized the Mamata government’s handling of the issue. He added that by allowing illegal migration to take place on a large scale, the ruling TMC government had greatly degraded the quality of living for the residents of Bengal with crime, corruption and hooliganism steeply rising in Gurudev Tagore’s great land of peace and prosperity. He said, “Our top priority after these elections will be to strengthen border security in Bengal with the help of modern fencing technologies so that this wave of illegal migration can be stopped. Furthermore, the BJP will focus on reviving the great cultural traditions and ideals that have been throttled by years of poor, corrupt rule by the left and then the TMC.”

Projects reviewed span across 9 States with cumulative investment of around ₹30,000 crore
PM also reviews Ken Betwa Link Project and Swachh Bharat Mission-Urban 2.0
PM says Ken-Betwa River Inter-linking Project should serve as a model for other States to resolve inter-State water issues amicably
PM asks States to expedite the completion of solid waste management-related infrastructure, including waste processing plants and GOBARdhan plants
PM calls for mission-mode rooftop solar coverage in urban areas
Acting upon the advice of PM, system of monthly review of social sector schemes at State level operationalised, starting with review of Swachh Bharat Mission

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi chaired the 51st meeting of PRAGATI, the ICT-enabled, multi-modal platform aimed at fostering Pro-Active Governance and Timely Implementation, by seamlessly integrating efforts of the Central and State governments, at Seva Teerth, earlier today.

During the meeting, the Prime Minister reviewed seven critical infrastructure projects across the Railways, Power and Road sectors covering nine States worth around ₹30,000 crore. These projects, pivotal to economic growth and public welfare, were reviewed with a focus on timelines, inter-agency coordination, and timely issue resolution. Prime Minister also reviewed Ken Betwa Link Project and Swachh Bharat Mission-Urban 2.0.

While reviewing power sector projects, Prime Minister emphasized the need to accelerate rooftop solar adoption across urban areas, with a special focus on cities, residential clusters and public institutions. He underlined that rooftop solar should be taken up in mission mode to reduce electricity costs, improve energy security and promote clean energy at the household and community level.

While reviewing road and port connectivity projects, it was emphasised that Vadhavan Port should be developed as a model of port-led, multi-modal development, where every major mode of transport is seamlessly integrated to create a future-ready logistics ecosystem. The project should not be seen merely as a port, but as a national gateway connected through coastal shipping, inland waterways, dedicated freight corridors, high-speed rail connectivity, highways and airport linkages.

Prime Minister emphasised the need for effective implementation of Swachh Bharat Mission 2.0 and underlined that the mission should move beyond infrastructure creation and ensure measurable outcomes through regular monitoring, citizen participation and convergence between various stakeholders. He asked States to expedite the completion of solid waste management-related infrastructure, including waste processing plants and GOBARdhan plants.

While reviewing Ken-Betwa River Inter-linking Project, Prime Minister observed that Ken-Betwa project should serve as a model for other States to resolve inter-State water issues through cooperation, timely clearances, technology-based monitoring and mission-mode execution. States were encouraged to identify similar opportunities where river-linking, water conservation, groundwater recharge and efficient irrigation can be taken up in an integrated manner to ensure long-term water security.

Prime Minister also underlined that the delay in the implementation of public projects leads not only to cost escalation but also deprives citizens of timely access to essential facilities and development benefits. He observed that every delay has a direct impact on people’s lives, regional growth and public resources. He stressed that Ministries, Departments and States must adopt a more proactive and time-bound approach to resolve pending issues, remove bottlenecks and ensure faster execution.

Prime Minister also emphasized that innovative use of canal networks should be explored, including installation of solar panels along canals and over canals for clean electricity generation. This would help optimize land use, reduce evaporation losses, generate renewable energy and create additional economic value from water infrastructure.

At the beginning of the meeting, the Cabinet Secretary informed that, in pursuance of the directions of the Prime Minister, a system of monthly review of social sector schemes at the State level has also been operationalised. This mechanism aims to ensure regular monitoring, faster resolution of implementation issues and greater accountability at the State and district levels. As part of this initiative, Swachh Bharat Mission has been taken up for review at the State level in the first instance.
