The teachings and ideals of our Gurus are our source of strength, faith and knowledge: PM Modi
Congress’ divisive and Pak-appeasing politics contributed in making Pakistan-based terror a major security issue for India: PM Modi in Hoshiarpur
Until 2014, the Congress governments spent three decades in making excuses and doing lip-service when it came to serving justice to the victims: Prime Minister Modi 

Continuing his electioneering, PM Modi addressed a third massive rally of supporters in the Hoshiarpur constituency of Punjab this evening. The rally saw PM Modi fiercely attacking the state Congress government for its poor governance track-record in the state.

 

Highlighting how the BJP-led NDA government has constantly worked to empower the Sikh community since 2014, PM Modi said, “The teachings and ideals of our Gurus are our source of strength, faith and knowledge and so it becomes quite essential that such values are constantly spread in our society and people become aware of the rich cultural heritage of India. It is with this mission that the BJP-led NDA government not only celebrated the 350th anniversary of Guru Gobind Singh Ji and 550th anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev Ji with great enthusiasm all over the world, we also took the issue of Kartarpur corridor as a top priority and facilitated its construction for our Sikh brethren. However, even this decision did not go down well with Congress leaders who instead began applauding Pakistan’s government on this issue. This is the kind of divisive and Pak-appeasing politics of Congress that made Pakistan-based terror such a major security issue for India.”

 

PM Modi further lashed out at the Congress party for its role in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots and said, “The entire nation remembers how thousands of Sikhs were brutally murdered in the 1984 riots which directly involved the senior Congress leadership. Until 2014, the Congress governments spent three decades in making excuses and doing lip-service when it came to serving justice to the victims. However, fulfilling my promise made to the Sikhs in 2014, we ensured that the perpetrators of these riots were bought under the purview of justice.”

Khelo India Dialogue will bring together sports, youth leadership, civic responsibility, volunteering, fitness and nation-building on a common platform
Yuva Samvaad under Khelo India Dialogue to Focus on Five Key Themes: Sports, Olympic Aspirations, Youth Leadership, Viksit Bharat and Nasha Mukt Yuva

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will address Khelo India Dialogue on 27th August at 11 AM via video conferencing. The programme aims to help the youth engage with India's sporting journey, share their aspirations, and contribute ideas for a stronger youth-led Viksit Bharat.

Organised by Mera Yuva Bharat (MY Bharat), as part of the National Sports Day 2026 celebrations, the programme will be conducted across the country with participation of youth at two colleges in every district across States and Union Territories. The programme is being held in line with the Prime Minister's vision of building a fit, disciplined and sporting nation while placing the aspirations of youth at the centre of the national development agenda.

The nationwide Khelo India Dialogue will bring together sports, youth leadership, civic responsibility, volunteering, fitness and nation-building on a common platform. It will provide a direct channel for young people to engage with the country's sporting ambitions, while ensuring that their ideas and perspectives become part of the continuing conversation on India's youth and sports ecosystem.

The national programme will be followed by local interactions involving young participants, MY Bharat volunteers, local sportspersons and public representatives. A major feature of the initiative will be direct interaction between youth having interest in sports and leading Indian athletes and medal winners. A central feature of the programme will be Yuva Samvaad where Young participants will be invited to articulate their own ideas, perspectives and aspirations. The dialogue will be structured around five themes:

  • improving India's sports ecosystem through better facilities, coaching, sports science and inclusive participation;
  • nurturing talent for the 2036 Olympics via scientific talent identification, transparent selection and long-term athlete development;
  • creating youth leaders through governance platforms and MY Bharat-led volunteering;
  • empowering youth for Viksit Bharat by building civic mindedness, future-ready skills and structured volunteering;
  • promoting a Nasha Mukt Yuva movement that leverages sport and peer networks to fight substance abuse, reinforced by weekly Jan Bhagidari activities under PM's 100-week nationwide campaign launched on 2 August 2026.
