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.”

Prime Minister and Prime Minster of Sweden exchange special gifts celebrating the shared cultural legacy of Rabindranath Tagore
May 17, 2026

The Prime Minister of Sweden, H.E. Mr. Ulf Kristersson and Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi exchanged special commemorative gifts to celebrate the legacy of Nobel Laureate Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore.

The gift from Prime Minister Kristersson comprised a box containing two replicas of hand-written epigrams by Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore, accompanied by a small explanatory text and a photograph of Gurudev Tagore taken in 1921 during his visit to Uppsala University. The originals, recently discovered in the Swedish National Archives, were created by Gurudev Tagore during his visits to Sweden in 1921 and 1926.

Prime Minister Modi presented to Prime Minster Kristersson a set of collected works of Rabindranath Tagore, along with a specially handcrafted bag from Shantiniketan with motifs that Gurudev chose to empower local artisans. The bag symbolizes Tagore’s philosophy that art is not meant to be confined to galleries, but to breathe life into everyday objects, bridging the gap between the intellectual and the functional.

Although Gurudev Tagore could not travel to Sweden in 1913 to receive the Nobel Prize, he was received by King Gustav V when he visited Sweden in 1921. These gifts symbolize the shared cultural and intellectual heritage between India and Sweden, and pay tribute to the enduring legacy of Rabindranath Tagore. The exchange of gifts also coincides with the centenary of Gurudev’s historic visit to Sweden in 1926.
