PM Modi addressed massive public gatherings in Krishnanagar and Mathurapur, delivering a sharp critique of TMC’s misgovernance while presenting BJP’s vision of development, security and women-led growth in West Bengal.

In Krishnanagar, PM Modi said record voting across states signals a decisive mandate for BJP-NDA, asserting that “4 May will mark BJP’s victory in Bengal… mithai bhi bategi aur jhalmuri bhi.” Taking a witty dig, he added that while he enjoyed jhalmuri, “jhal TMC ko lagi hai.”

He highlighted 15 years of “scams and broken promises” under TMC, pointing to failed commitments on schools, industries, piped water and healthcare. He noted that while the Centre delivered projects like AIIMS Kalyani, TMC continued to obstruct development.

Raising concerns over infiltration, he contrasted BJP’s “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas” with what he termed TMC’s politics of appeasement. He assured Matua, Namasudra and refugee families of protection and reiterated that citizenship under CAA will be expedited once BJP forms the government.

The PM also announced 10 guarantees for women, including strict punishment for crimes, women police recruitment, Matri Shakti Bhorosha Card, Ayushman Bharat coverage, Mudra loans, Lakhpati Didi expansion and housing under PM Awas Yojana in women’s names. He reaffirmed, “Modi ki Guarantee yani guarantee poora hone ki guarantee” (read: Modi's guarantee, which means the guarantee will be fulfilled).

In the second rally of the day in Mathurapur, PM Modi contrasted BJP’s 11 years of development with TMC’s 15 years of “lies and betrayal.” He cited delivery of electricity to every village, crores of houses, toilets, Jan Dhan accounts, Ayushman cards and PM-Kisan benefits, while accusing TMC of failing on promises like Ghatal Master Plan, mega food parks and industrial growth.

Highlighting local challenges, he pointed to the lack of a permanent bridge to Gangasagar, recurring floods, weak embankments and misuse of central funds.

Targeting the syndicate culture, he described widespread “cut money” in jobs, land, ration and mandis.

Focusing on coastal development, PM Modi emphasised the untapped potential of the fisheries sector. He promised better infrastructure, cold storage, fish export hubs and modern technology support, while ensuring maritime security against smuggling and illegal activities.

He concluded by asserting that a strong wave of change is visible across Bengal, driven by women and youth, and that the state is ready to reject corruption, fear and syndicate raj for development and opportunity.

PM to disburse incentives worth around ₹2,400 crore under PM-VBRY on 19 June
June 17, 2026
First-Time Employees to Receive Incentive of up to ₹15,000
To encourage sustained job creation, Employers eligible for Incentive of up to ₹3,000 per Month per Additional Employee
PM-VBRY is designed to facilitate Job Creation, Formalisation of Employment and Expansion of Social Security Coverage
Scheme has already Facilitated Employment for 15 Lakh Beneficiaries Across the Country

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will disburse incentives worth around ₹2,400 crore under the Pradhan Mantri Viksit Bharat Rozgar Yojana (PM-VBRY) at a special programme to be held on 19 June 2026 at 5 PM at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi.

The disbursal marks a significant milestone in the implementation of PM-VBRY, the Government of India’s flagship employment-linked incentive scheme aimed at accelerating job creation, promoting formalisation of employment, enhancing employability, and expanding social security coverage across sectors. The scheme has already supported the creation of 15 lakh employment opportunities across the country.

PM-VBRY is designed to encourage both workers and employers to participate in the formal economy. Under the scheme, first-time employees are eligible for an incentive of up to ₹15,000, providing crucial support as they enter the workforce. Employers generating additional employment are eligible for incentives of up to ₹3,000 per month per additional employee, thereby encouraging sustained job creation. Recognising the strategic importance of manufacturing in driving economic growth, employers in the manufacturing sector are eligible to receive incentives for a period of four years, while employers in all other sectors can avail incentives for two years.

The scheme reflects the Government’s commitment to fostering an enabling ecosystem for employment-led growth and ensuring that the benefits of India’s economic progress translate into quality formal employment opportunities for its youth.

PM-VBRY came into effect on 1 August 2025. With a total outlay of ₹99,446 crore, the scheme aims to incentivise the creation of more than 3.5 crore jobs over a two-year period. Of these, approximately 1.92 crore beneficiaries are expected to be first-time entrants into the workforce. By supporting both employees and employers, the scheme is playing a transformative role in expanding formal employment, strengthening social security coverage, and advancing the vision of a Viksit Bharat.
