The people of Uttar Pradesh are determined to hold colourful celebrations of victory on 10th March, ahead of Holi: PM Modi in Fatehpur
PM Modi says UP all set to bless BJP again, slams ‘Parivarwadis’ for questioning vaccine drive
BJP's Double Engine Sarkar has given free ration to the poor for the last two years. Even big countries in the world could not make such arrangements for their citizens: PM Modi

Addressing an election rally in Uttar Pradesh’s Fatehpur to campaign for the BJP for the upcoming state polls, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, “I am coming from Punjab. The mood in Punjab is to vote for BJP. Every phase of UP polls is voting for BJP. The people of Uttar Pradesh are determined to hold colourful celebrations of victory on 10th March, ahead of Holi.”

Slamming the opposition for creating vaccine hesitancy, PM Modi remarked, “'Parivarwadi' are calling COVID19 vaccines 'BJP ka Teeka'. Two kinds of people are scared of the vaccine - one is coronavirus and the other are those opposing the vaccines. These people have problem with Modi, Yogi and the vaccine.”

He further alleged, “During my first address from the Red Fort as the Prime Minister, I spoke about building toilets for the women in the villages. The opponents mocked this noble cause as they could never understand the pain of poor mothers and sisters. These people even opposed banning of triple talaq. Should I not think of the welfare of women of the country? Parivarwadi's are scared that their vote bank is vanishing as Modi is providing facilities like health schemes, houses, toilets etc. to the poor.”

During the rally, PM Modi remarked, “Bundelkhand is famous for its toys, for its rich tradition of handloom-handicrafts. The handicrafts of our tribal sisters and brothers are the best in the whole world. Special scheme has been started to promote artisans. Leaders of the opposition don’t like to endorse the ‘Vocal for Local’ mission as they think if the poor, dalits, backwards, tribals of the country will flourish then their vote-bank politics will end.”

Talking about farmers’ welfare, PM Modi said, “For decades, lakhs of farmers of Bundelkhand have been demanding to link Ken-Betwa and the double engine government has taken the initiative to complete this work. Water will reach the fields of Bundelkhand at a cost of more than 44 thousand crores.” PM Modi also warned that if ‘Parivarwadis’ come to power, they will stand as a hindrance in front of the Ken-Betwa link project.

“This entire area is very famous for many such agricultural products like Fatehpur's Chilli, Jhansi's Tulsi, Mahoba's Deshavari Paan. Especially for small farmers, such crops mean a lot. But what did opposition do for these crops, for small farmers? Today we are making new arrangements for the farmers – Beej Se Bazar Tak. We are sending thousands of rupees directly to the bank account of the farmers,” stated PM Modi while addressing a rally in Fatehpur.

Speaking further on politics over water, PM Modi iterated that the opposition has betrayed the trust of people for years whereas under the Double Engine Sarkar, water has reached the homes of lakhs in UP within two years.

“BJP's Double Engine Sarkar has given free ration to the poor for the last two years. Even big countries in the world could not make such arrangements for their citizens. Even the rich and prosperous countries could not do the work that India has done,” he added.

PM to land at the Emergency Landing Facility (ELF) on Moran Bypass in Dibrugarh
ELF - first of its kind in Northeast India - will serve as a critical asset for strategic requirements and emergency response during natural disasters
PM to inaugurate and flag off various projects worth over Rs. 5,450 crore in Guwahati
PM to inaugurate Kumar Bhaskar Varma Setu across River Brahmaputra

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will visit Assam on 14th February 2026. At around 10:30 AM, Prime Minister will land at the Emergency Landing Facility (ELF) on Moran Bypass in Dibrugarh, where he will witness the Aerial Display of Fighters, Transports and Helicopters. At around 1 PM, Prime Minister will visit Kumar Bhaskar Varma Setu across River Brahmaputra. Thereafter, at around 1:30 PM, Prime Minister will inaugurate and flag off various projects worth more than Rs 5,450 crore at Lachit Ghat, Guwahati.

The Emergency Landing Facility (ELF) is the first of its kind in Northeast India. It has been specially designed and constructed in coordination with the Indian Air Force to support landing and take-off of military and civil aircraft during emergencies. It will serve as a critical asset for emergency response, enabling quick deployment of rescue and relief operations during natural disasters or strategic requirements in the Northeast. Envisioned as dual-use infrastructure, the ELF is capable of handling fighter aircraft up to 40 tonnes and transport aircraft up to 74 tonnes maximum take-off weight.

Prime Minister will inaugurate several key projects aimed at accelerating connectivity, strengthening digital infrastructure, promoting higher education, and enhancing public transport, thereby giving a significant boost to development in the North-Eastern Region.

Prime Minister will inaugurate Kumar Bhaskar Varma Setu across River Brahmaputra, built at a cost of around Rs 3,030 crore. The 6-lane extradosed Prestressed Concrete (PSC) bridge connects Guwahati with North Guwahati and is the first extradosed bridge in Northeast India. It will cut travel time between Guwahati-North Guwahati to 7 minutes. Considering the high seismicity of the region, the bridge incorporates base isolation technology using friction pendulum bearings. High-performance stay cables have been used to ensure durability and long-term structural performance. A Bridge Health Monitoring System (BHMS) has also been incorporated for real-time condition monitoring, early damage detection and improved safety and service life of the extradosed bridge.

Prime Minister will inaugurate the National Data Centre for North Eastern Region at Amingaon in Kamrup district of Assam. The state-of-the-art Data Centre, with a total sanctioned load of 8.5 MW and an average rack capacity of 10 kW per rack, will host mission-critical applications of various government departments and also function as a Disaster Recovery centre for other National Data Centres. This will enable governments in the Northeast to digitally facilitate delivery of essential citizen-centric services. Aligned with the vision of Digital India, National Data Centre for North Eastern Region has been envisaged as a strategic intervention to strengthen the region’s ICT backbone and ensure robust, secure and always-available digital infrastructure. Prime Minister will also inaugurate IIM Guwahati, which will give a major fillip to higher education and management education in the North-Eastern Region.

Prime Minister will also flag off 225 electric buses under the PM-eBus Sewa Scheme in Guwahati (100), Nagpur (50), Bhavnagar (50) and Chandigarh (25). With the launch of e-bus operations under the PM-eBus Sewa Scheme in these four cities, more than 50 lakh citizens are expected to benefit through access to clean, affordable and reliable public transport services, contributing to improved urban mobility and enhanced quality of life.
