Congress can play whatever games it wants to, but no one can stop Modi from taking Chhattisgarh ahead. Modi is son of poor, understand their pain: PM Modi
Modi is guarantee of action against corruption. One who has done wrong, won't be spared: PM Modi in Raipur
Congress cannot breathe without corruption. Corruption is Congress ideology. It is a guarantee of commission: PM Modi
Chhattisgarh is like an ATM for Congress: PM Modi in Raipur

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today addressed a public meeting in Chhattisgarh’s Raipur. PM Modi expressed, "The formation of Chhattisgarh saw a significant contribution from the BJP. We possess a profound understanding of the people of Chhattisgarh and are well-aware of their requirements. Consequently, the government of BJP in Delhi is fully committed to propelling the rapid progress of Chhattisgarh."


Criticizing the Congress party for failing to deliver on their commitments, Prime Minister Modi remarked, "Among the thirty-six promises made by the Congress to Chhattisgarh was the pledge to impose a prohibition on liquor in the state. However, rather than implementing a ban, the Congress has been involved in a liquor scam worth thousands of crores in Chhattisgarh. This indicates that the Congress party has betrayed the trust of the mothers and sisters of Chhattisgarh as well as the state itself."


Furthermore, PM Modi said, “In Chhattisgarh, there is hardly any department or project that is free from scam. The coal mafia, sand mafia, and land mafia, among numerous others, have thrived unchecked. They have even impeded the progress of the Jal Jeevan Mission. From the state's leadership to ministers and officials, serious allegations of corruption have been levelled.”


PM Modi remarked, “Today the Government of Chhattisgarh has become a model of corruption and misrule of the Congress. That's why today only one voice is being raised from Chhattisgarh all around – ‘Badalbi, Badalbo,… Ae Dari Congress Ke Sarkaarle Badalbo’.”


Coming heavily on opposition parties, PM Modi asserted, “Some people get angry when I say that Congress is the guarantee of corruption and commission. They resort to cursing Modi. However, their displeasure serves as evidence that our government is moving in the right direction. Those who engage in corrupt practices are attempting to unite against us today. Those who were once bitter enemies are now seeking excuses to come together. They believe that by doing so, they can intimidate and disorient Modi.”


“However, they should understand this: if they guarantee corruption, then Modi guarantees decisive action against corruption. Those who have committed wrongdoings will not escape accountability. I have the courage to state this boldly because everything I have, everything I am, has been bestowed upon me by you, by our nation. These individuals may threaten to bury me, and conspire against me, but fear has no place in Modi's heart,” he added.


PM Modi talked about the several schemes and developments that helped the state. He said, “Over the past 9 years, you have witnessed the outcomes of our relentless efforts to combat the issue of Naxalism. Just a few years ago, the country had approximately 126 districts affected by Naxalism. However, we have successfully reduced that number to around 70 now.”


Stressing on the real guarantee of the BJP, PM Modi stated, “Under the Ayushman Bharat scheme, 40 lakh poor people have been treated free of cost in Chhattisgarh. The farmers of Chhattisgarh have received Rs 6,500 crore from the PM Fasal Bima Yojana. This is the real guarantee of BJP. More than 6,600 crore rupees of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi have been received by about 40 lakh farmers here. This is the real guarantee of BJP.”


Accusing the Congress for neglecting public development schemes, PM Modi said, "The BJP is a party that prioritizes the welfare of the poor and is deeply concerned about their well-being. But Congress is the biggest enemy of the poor. The Congress government hinders the implementation of schemes initiated by the BJP government in Delhi, such as the Pradhan Mantri Gramin Awas Yojana. This obstruction is clearly evident. The central government had planned to construct 15 lakh houses for the underprivileged in Chhattisgarh, but the progress has been impeded. Congress has always used the tribal society as a vote bank."


During the public meeting, PM Modi said, “It is the BJP government that has got them their rights by including them in the list of tribes. This is the BJP government, which had created a separate Tribal Welfare Ministry. It is the BJP government which has opened hundreds of new Eklavya Model Schools for tribal children. It is the BJP government which has opened thousands of Van Dhan Kendras for tribal farmers.” The PM also addressed the extensive campaign launched to combat sickle cell anaemia.

PM Modi addresses a mega public meeting in Ernakulam, Keralam
March 11, 2026
You have given Congress and Left more than 70 years. Now give a chance so that BJP-NDA serves you. You will see a great glimpse of #ViksitKeralam: PM
I am also grateful that the governments in Gulf countries are protecting our citizens. Our Indian embassies are helping them 24x7, says PM Modi
To reduce dependence on petrol and diesel, electric vehicles are being promoted. 100 percent electrification of railways is being carried out: PM Modi
Congress-led UDF is now MMC- Muslim League Maoist Congress, while LDF has long-standing ties with extremist elements like the PDP: PM Modi

Amid a massive gathering in Ernakulam today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the enthusiasm and confidence of the people reflected a strong aspiration for Keralam’s development and a new political direction in the state. He emphasised that the aspirations of the people clearly indicate a desire for faster growth and new opportunities.

Expressing confidence in the people’s mandate, PM Modi said, “The 21st century is a crucial time for Keralam. The state needs a new future and a new beginning. I am happy that the people of Keralam have decided to come out of the cycle of LDF and UDF. The confidence visible in this massive public meeting shows that people are ready for change.”

Highlighting the vision of a double-engine government, He stated Keralam possesses immense natural and human potential. He noted that the state has nature, culture, talent, technology and the blessings of the vast sea. However, he remarked that despite these strengths, development had not progressed at the desired pace due to alternating governments and political patterns that slowed long-term progress.

Calling for a new political direction, PM Modi iterated, “For rapid development, this pattern must change. You have given Congress and the Left more than seventy years. Now give BJP-NDA the next five years and you will see the vision of a Viksit Keralam take shape. You have Modi’s guarantee, what has not changed until now will change and Keralam will move forward.”

The Prime Minister said the vision of BJP-NDA is to position Keralam as a global hub for wellness, tourism and cultural experiences. He said, “For a Viksit Keralam, we must create new opportunities in tourism, talent and technology. The youth of Keralam have tremendous capability, and they should lead new sectors like startups, innovation and emerging technologies.”

Highlighting economic priorities, the PM stated, “Our government has ensured financial support and security for fishermen. Fishermen have been provided access to credit through the Kisan Credit Card and insurance coverage of up to five lakh rupees. Major projects like the Vizhinjam International Seaport show our commitment to strengthening the Blue Economy.”

Addressing concerns related to developments in the Gulf region, PM Modi said the government remains fully committed to the safety and welfare of Indian citizens working abroad. “Whenever any Indian citizen has faced danger anywhere in the world, India has made every effort to bring them back safely. Our embassies and missions are working round the clock to ensure help, food, medical care and support for our people,” he said.

“Whether it was rescuing nurses trapped in Iraq or securing the release of Father Tom from terrorists in Yemen, today’s India does not leave its citizens alone in times of crisis. We also brought Father Alexis Prem Kumar safely back from Afghanistan. Even today, our effort is to ensure safety and every possible assistance for Indians caught in difficult situations,” he added.

Coming down heavily on the Congress, PM Modi said, “It is unfortunate that even in such a serious global situation, the Congress party is indulging in politics. Congress leaders are making provocative statements so that the situation worsens, our people face difficulties and then they can start a campaign of abusing Modi.”

Highlighting the importance of self-reliance, PM Modi said, “India is continuously working to become self-reliant in the energy sector. Solar power capacity is expanding, electric mobility is being promoted and railway electrification is progressing rapidly. These steps are strengthening India’s long-term energy security.”

“On one hand, the BJP-NDA government is working tirelessly to make India self-reliant. On the other hand, Congress and the Left are busy mocking the Aatmanirbhar Bharat campaign. When they were in power, they only increased the country’s dependence on foreign nations. Even today, at a time when the world is facing conflict, Congress, the Left and their ecosystem are spreading rumours and creating panic. I urge the people of the country to stay alert and cautious against such misinformation.”

Criticising political opponents in the state, the Prime Minister said LDF and UDF represent two sides of the same system. He alleged that both groups have been associated with corruption, stalled development and divisive politics, which have hindered the progress of the state.

He continued, “When UDF was in power, the state witnessed the solar scam. Today, under LDF rule, the CMRL scam is dominating the headlines. Look at their partnership even in controversies around the Sabarimala temple. There are allegations of gold loot against leaders of one side and accusations of selling the looted gold against leaders of the other.”

Taking a swipe at the UDF and LDF, PM Modi asserted, "On one side is the UDF led by the Congress, which has now become MMC - Muslim League Maoist Congress. To win elections in Keralam, Congress depends on organisations like Jamaat and others whose radical agendas threaten the peace of the state. On the other side, the LDF has long-standing ties with extremist elements like the PDP, whose leaders are known for spreading extremism among the youth. Therefore, the people of Keralam must remain cautious of both UDF and LDF.”

Calling for a new mandate, the Prime Minister concluded by saying, “The goal of BJP is the development of the nation and the development of Keralam. With a BJP-NDA government here and a double-engine government, Keralam will move ahead with double the speed toward prosperity and growth.”
