India is not complete without Kashmiriyat: PM Modi

The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, today announced a development package of eighty thousand crore rupees for the State of Jammu and Kashmir. In his address at the Sher-e-Kashmir stadium in Srinagar, Shri Narendra Modi recalled former Prime Minister Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee's message of Kashmiriyat, Jamhooriyat, Insaniyat.

"India is not complete without Kashmiriyat," the Prime Minister said, mentioning the Sufi tradition of India.

He praised the people of the state for reposing their faith in Jamhooriyat (democracy) and said that the progress of Jammu and Kashmir had to be based on Insaniyat.

The Prime Minister said his Government worked for "Sabka saath, sabka vikas," and therefore, it was essential for development to reach all parts of the country. He said the State of Jammu and Kashmir should return once again to the days when people from all parts of India saved money to visit the State. He said that besides tourism, attention was being given to sectors such as Pashmina, and Saffron.

The Prime Minister inaugurated the 450 MW Baglihar Hydro Electric Project Stage-II; and laid the Foundation Stone of 4-laning of Udhampur-Ramban and Ramban-Banihal section of National Highway 44 at Chanderkote, Ramban.

He spoke of the initiatives of the Union Government in renewable energy generation, and the ambitious target of 175 GW of renewable energy. He said this was the best way to combat the global issue of climate change.

The Prime Minister said the Rs. 80,000 crore package for Jammu and Kashmir, which he announced in Srinagar, would give new strength to the State, and generate employment for youth.

PM Modi interacts with BJP Karyakartas from Keralam under “Mera Booth Sabse Mazboot” campaign
April 02, 2026
Win every booth, strengthen every connection, and Keralam will script a new chapter of development with BJP-NDA: PM Modi’s strong hope
Just like a true player peaks in crucial moments, karyakartas must now increase their intensity, outreach, and commitment as polling day approaches: PM drew an analogy from cricketer Sanju Samson’s career
The Congress and Left parties have constantly promoted appeasement and aligned with extremist elements for vote-bank politics: PM Modi to Keralam
Keralam’s youth are seeking change, driven by aspirations for better infrastructure, industry, and employment opportunities: PM Modi

PM Modi interacted with BJP karyakartas across Keralam under the “Mera Booth Sabse Mazboot” initiative, energising grassroots organisation and expressing confidence that the state is ready for a historic political shift. Extending greetings to the people of Keralam, he noted that the ongoing election campaign reflects a strong wave in favour of BJP-NDA.

Opening the interaction, PM Modi described himself as a fellow karyakarta, appreciating the dedication and perseverance of Keralam’s cadre who have worked tirelessly despite challenging political conditions. He emphasised that the growing enthusiasm seen across regions from Thiruvananthapuram to Thrissur signals a turning point in Keralam’s politics.

Encouraging strategic booth-level outreach, PM Modi urged karyakartas to intensify efforts in the final phase of the campaign. Drawing an analogy from cricketer Sanju Samson’s performance under pressure, he said that just like a true player peaks in crucial moments, karyakartas must now increase their intensity, outreach, and commitment as polling day approaches.

Highlighting ground feedback from karyakartas, PM Modi noted the increasing support for BJP even in traditionally difficult areas such as coastal regions, where fishermen and local communities are now actively joining the party.

Drawing a sharp contrast with opposition parties, PM Modi stated that both LDF and UDF have thrived on misgovernance, corruption, and political complacency, assuming that power would alternate between them indefinitely. He credited the people of Keralam for challenging this mindset.

He established that Keralam’s youth are seeking change, driven by aspirations for better infrastructure, industry, and employment opportunities. He noted that migration has become a compulsion due to lack of opportunities, and the youth now see BJP as the capable party for a change.

He also raised concerns over corruption and divisive politics, accusing Congress and Left parties of promoting appeasement and aligning with extremist elements for vote-bank politics. He urged karyakartas to expose such agendas at the grassroots level.

He mentioned that Lord Ayyappa devotees have been repeatedly overlooked in Keralam and that irregularities in cooperative banks have endangered people’s hard-earned savings.

Focusing on development, PM Modi outlined the BJP-NDA’s vision for a “Viksit Keralam,” driven by pillars such as talent, technology, trade, and tourism. He highlighted the need to unlock Keralam’s immense potential in multiple sectors.


He also stressed connecting with Keralam voters living outside the state, encouraging them and their families to participate actively in the electoral process.

PM Modi urged karyakartas to present a clear vision for the future by preparing booth-level roadmaps reflecting people’s aspirations for the next five years. He emphasised that BJP-NDA’s governance is based on “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas,”.

Reaffirming the spirit of Seva, Sangathan, and Samarpan, PM Modi praised Keralam’s BJP as resilient and dedicated, noting their years of struggle are now translating into growing public support.

He concluded with a strong call to action:
“Win every booth, strengthen every connection, and Keralam will script a new chapter of development with BJP-NDA.”
