BJP’s only mantra is ‘Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas’ whereas others believe in benefitting a select few: PM

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today campaigned in Jaunpur. Seeing tremendous enthusiasm among people, Shri Modi thanked them for ushering their affection on the BJP. He said that after five phases, BJP was rapidly moving towards victory. He urged people to elect a BJP Government with full majority.

Shri Narendra Modi spoke about the valour of the armed forces. Complementing them on the surgical strike, Shri Modi opined, “We are proud of our armed forces. The surgical strike was done after elaborate planning & is being talked about world over. But sadly, there are some people who are so driven by political considerations that they want to question our armed forces.”

Noting the difficulties faced by the armed forces, Shri Modi spoke about ‘One Rank, One Pension.’ He said, “For 40 years our forces demanded OROP but nothing happened. I had promised a BJP Govt will deliver on OROP and we did. By allocating only Rs. 500 crore for OROP, what the previous Central Government did was to humiliate the armed forces.”

Launching attack on the SP government, Shri Modi said, “It is not their kaam that speaks but their karnama. The UP government website clearly shows what their Karnamas are and that is when they removed that content from the website.”

The Prime Minister said that law and order situation in Uttar Pradesh was a disaster. He said, “If the law and order situation is poor then people will not invest and youngsters will not get employment opportunities. Police stations are functioning like SP offices, criminals are committing crimes sitting in jails. This is not acceptable.” He further added, “People recite the 'Gayatri Mantra' but the SP and Congress know the 'Gayatri Prajapati Mantra' rather well.”

Shri Modi said that BJP’s only mantra was ‘Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas’ whereas others did not believe in development for all. He said, “It is time to root out SP, BSP and Congress. They do not believe in development for all. They believe in benefitting a select few.” He further added that ‘Shanti, Ekta, Sadbhavna’ were the key to progress.

Shri Modi alleged that despite resources being allotted from the Centre, the UP government was unable to utilise the funds and resources for welfare of people in the state. “The Government of India is providing resources to feed the poor but the UP Government is showing no keenness to make use of them”, the PM said. He also spoke about several initiatives of the Centre aimed at welfare of the poor.

Speaking about demonetisation, Shri Modi remarked that it was a step undertaken to fight black money and corruption. He assured that the fight to protect the rights of the honest would keep on going. Attacking all other parties he stated, “I fail to understand why some people were so agitated after demonetisation? Was it because they have to give back what they looted?”

PM Modi addresses a mega public meeting in Bengaluru, Karnataka
May 10, 2026
Today, a saffron sun has risen from the land of Bengaluru, says PM Modi on witnessing the massive crowd at the Bengaluru rally
PM Modi says women in Karnataka and across the country will never forgive Congress for obstructing greater political participation of women
People repeatedly bring BJP governments back because they trust our governance and development agenda: PM Modi in Bengaluru
NDA forming the government in Assam for the third consecutive time, the BJP receiving such a massive blessing in Bengal for the first time: PM

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today addressed a massive public meeting in Bengaluru, Karnataka and hailed the BJP’s growing support across southern India, asserting that the people of the country are choosing ‘stability, speed and solutions’ over instability and scams. He said that today, a saffron sun has risen from the land of Bengaluru.

Addressing party karyakartas and supporters, PM Modi said, “As a BJP karyakarta myself, I know that only BJP workers can gather in such large numbers, in such an organized manner, this early in the morning. I am deeply grateful to all of you for coming here in such huge numbers.”

Recalling the historic significance of May 10, PM Modi said the day marked the beginning of the First War of Independence in 1857, which later transformed into a nationwide movement against colonial rule.

The PM said that inspired by this spirit, the nation had recently marked the first anniversary of Operation Sindoor. He also informed the gathering that he would be visiting Somnath in Gujarat tomorrow to participate in the celebrations marking 75 years of the reconstruction of the Somnath Temple.

Calling Karnataka a major pillar of BJP’s southern expansion, PM Modi highlighted the NDA’s electoral successes in multiple states and Union Territories. “Puducherry has voted for an NDA government for the second consecutive time, Assam has chosen NDA for the third straight term, BJP has received historic blessings in Bengal, and in Gujarat, BJP has broken all previous records in panchayat and civic polls,” he added.

“These results carry a very strong message, in a world surrounded by instability, the people of India are giving the mantra of stability. The people are saying they want speed, not scams; solutions, not excuses; and politics driven by national interest,” he said.

“When BJP was not as big a party as it is today, Karnataka gave BJP tremendous strength. Today, NDA is in power in Andhra Pradesh, BJP is number one in Karnataka in terms of Lok Sabha representation, BJP is the second-largest force in Telangana, NDA has formed government again in Puducherry and BJP has also opened its account in Tamil Nadu,” he said. Referring to Kerala, the PM expressed confidence about the BJP-NDA’s future prospects in the state.

“There was a time when BJP had only three MLAs in Bengal and today we have a government there with over 200 MLAs. In Kerala too, we have moved from one to three MLAs. The day is not far when BJP-NDA will cross the majority mark there as well,” he remarked.

Launching a sharp attack on the Congress party, PM Modi contrasted BJP’s ‘pro-incumbency’ with what he termed Congress’ growing anti-incumbency. “We have been in power at the Centre for 12 years and BJP-NDA governments are serving in more than 21 states. People repeatedly bring BJP governments back because they trust our governance and development agenda,” he said.

The Prime Minister alleged that Congress governments fail to retain public confidence because of poor governance and internal conflicts. “Congress has no chapter on governance in its political book. In Karnataka, instead of solving people’s problems, the government spends most of its time resolving internal fights. In Himachal Pradesh, government employees are struggling to receive salaries and in Telangana, farmers are being pushed towards distress,” he said.

Accusing Congress of betraying women on the issue of women’s reservation, PM Modi iterated, “For decades, Congress misled the women of this country. BJP ended that politics and enacted the law for 33 percent reservation for women. But Congress remains the biggest anti-women party and opposed the Nari Shakti Vandan legislation.”

He asserted that women in Karnataka and across the country would never forgive Congress for obstructing greater political participation of women.

Referring to Tamil Nadu politics, the PM said Congress had repeatedly depended on its allies for survival but later turned against them for political gains. “Look at Tamil Nadu. For nearly 25-30 years, Congress had a close relationship with the DMK. Time and again, the alliance with DMK rescued Congress from political crises and strengthened it at the Centre. But a power-hungry Congress stabbed DMK in the back at the first available opportunity,” he said.

“The world is facing multiple crises today. The continuing instability in West Asia has impacted the entire world, and India too is affected. At such a time, we must strengthen our sense of restraint and responsibility. We must make every effort to reduce unnecessary expenditure of foreign exchange and protect national resources,” PM Modi said.

Drawing parallels with the collective response during the COVID-19 pandemic, PM Modi called upon citizens to stand united once again in the national interest.
