“Congress can never give a stable government to Himachal… Congress is a guarantee of instability. Congress is guaranteed to stop development works”: PM Modi at Chambi
Congress is being rejected by the people due to their familism and vote bank politics. States have been rejecting Congress as a choice for leadership: PM Modi
Congress left with power in 2 states, you don't see them making news for development but only its internal feuds, says PM Modi in Chambi
Congress still believes that the people of Himachal will vote for them as they believe in the formula of an alternative government every 5 years: PM Modi in Sujanpur

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today; addressed public meetings in Chambi & Sujanpur, Himachal Pradesh. PM Modi started his first address at Chambi by highlighting that Himachal, today, is in an important stage of development and, thus, it needs a stable and strong government.

Hitting out at the opposition for promoting instability and becoming a roadblock to development, PM Modi said, “Congress can never give a stable government to Himachal… Congress is a guarantee of instability. Congress is guaranteed to stop development works”.

Highlighting the stark differences between the BJP and the Congress, PM Modi said that BJP has made the development of the nation its top priority in politics. PM Modi further added that the people of India, today, are voting for the BJP to return to power in many states whilst doing away with an anti-incumbency mindset. PM Modi gave examples of how states like Gujarat, Goa, Uttarakhand and UP have been voting for the BJP to increase the pace of development in the state.

PM Modi also talked about how the Congress is being rejected by the people due to their familism and vote bank politics. PM Modi gave examples of states that have been rejecting Congress as a choice for leadership. PM Modi further said, “The basis of Congress is still familism. Such a Congress party can never fulfil the expectations and aspirations of the people of Himachal”

Talking about the progress made under the double-engine government of the BJP, PM Modi highlighted the progress made under various schemes, especially focusing on the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana and said, “From 2014 to 2017, only 15 pucca houses were built here.
After the formation of the BJP government in 2017, the houses of 10 thousand poor were approved and 8 thousand houses have been completed”

PM Modi reiterated his commitment towards the people of Himachal and highlighted that the Congress-led government only paid 60 paise to one rupee for development work and the remainder was borne by the people of Himachal. In stark contrast, the BJP-led government now pays 90 paise to a rupee for development work.

Talking about the development of educational avenues in Himachal, PM Modi said, “Himachal has 2 state universities, one central university, a technical university, a hydroelectric college, IIITs, facilities are expanding in IITs, IIMs, AIIMS, new medical colleges. Many such institutions which were once a dream of Himachal have become a reality today.”

PM Modi finally addressed the people about the unprecedented support the BJP-led government is providing to the women and the girl child in the country at every stage of their lives. PM Modi talked about several developmental schemes such as - Beti Bachao Beti Padhao, Ujjwala Yojana, Jal Jeevan Mission and Mudra Yojana, that are supporting women in every aspect of their lives.

PM Modi started his second address at Sujanpur by highlighting the time he had spent with the people of Himachal as a ‘karyakarta’ and told people about his life during those days.

PM Modi slammed the Congress for not delivering basic needs to the people of Himachal for decades. PM Modi further said that Congress still believes that the people of Himachal will vote for them as they believe in the formula of an alternative government every 5 years. PM Modi reiterated that the Congress has been on a sharp decline and is being rejected by the majority of states as Congress considers itself bigger than anything.

PM Modi called out the fallacies of the Congress-led government in their inability to provide appropriate gear to the armed forces and deprived the villages near the border areas of infrastructure of any kind. Highlighting the stark contrast, PM Modi said that his government not only implemented One Rank One Pension but also cleared its arrears with due respect to the soldiers.

PM Modi finally addressed the public on how Congress had become a roadblock for the development between 2014 to 2017. PM Modi said, “It is the BJP which can take Himachal to new heights of development. Therefore, this time the return of the BJP government in Himachal is necessary.”

PM Modi chairs 51st PRAGATI Meeting
May 27, 2026

Projects reviewed span across 9 States with cumulative investment of around ₹30,000 crore
PM also reviews Ken Betwa Link Project and Swachh Bharat Mission-Urban 2.0
PM says Ken-Betwa River Inter-linking Project should serve as a model for other States to resolve inter-State water issues amicably
PM asks States to expedite the completion of solid waste management-related infrastructure, including waste processing plants and GOBARdhan plants
PM calls for mission-mode rooftop solar coverage in urban areas
Acting upon the advice of PM, system of monthly review of social sector schemes at State level operationalised, starting with review of Swachh Bharat Mission

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi chaired the 51st meeting of PRAGATI, the ICT-enabled, multi-modal platform aimed at fostering Pro-Active Governance and Timely Implementation, by seamlessly integrating efforts of the Central and State governments, at Seva Teerth, earlier today.

During the meeting, the Prime Minister reviewed seven critical infrastructure projects across the Railways, Power and Road sectors covering nine States worth around ₹30,000 crore. These projects, pivotal to economic growth and public welfare, were reviewed with a focus on timelines, inter-agency coordination, and timely issue resolution. Prime Minister also reviewed Ken Betwa Link Project and Swachh Bharat Mission-Urban 2.0.

While reviewing power sector projects, Prime Minister emphasized the need to accelerate rooftop solar adoption across urban areas, with a special focus on cities, residential clusters and public institutions. He underlined that rooftop solar should be taken up in mission mode to reduce electricity costs, improve energy security and promote clean energy at the household and community level.

While reviewing road and port connectivity projects, it was emphasised that Vadhavan Port should be developed as a model of port-led, multi-modal development, where every major mode of transport is seamlessly integrated to create a future-ready logistics ecosystem. The project should not be seen merely as a port, but as a national gateway connected through coastal shipping, inland waterways, dedicated freight corridors, high-speed rail connectivity, highways and airport linkages.

Prime Minister emphasised the need for effective implementation of Swachh Bharat Mission 2.0 and underlined that the mission should move beyond infrastructure creation and ensure measurable outcomes through regular monitoring, citizen participation and convergence between various stakeholders. He asked States to expedite the completion of solid waste management-related infrastructure, including waste processing plants and GOBARdhan plants.

While reviewing Ken-Betwa River Inter-linking Project, Prime Minister observed that Ken-Betwa project should serve as a model for other States to resolve inter-State water issues through cooperation, timely clearances, technology-based monitoring and mission-mode execution. States were encouraged to identify similar opportunities where river-linking, water conservation, groundwater recharge and efficient irrigation can be taken up in an integrated manner to ensure long-term water security.

Prime Minister also underlined that the delay in the implementation of public projects leads not only to cost escalation but also deprives citizens of timely access to essential facilities and development benefits. He observed that every delay has a direct impact on people’s lives, regional growth and public resources. He stressed that Ministries, Departments and States must adopt a more proactive and time-bound approach to resolve pending issues, remove bottlenecks and ensure faster execution.

Prime Minister also emphasized that innovative use of canal networks should be explored, including installation of solar panels along canals and over canals for clean electricity generation. This would help optimize land use, reduce evaporation losses, generate renewable energy and create additional economic value from water infrastructure.

At the beginning of the meeting, the Cabinet Secretary informed that, in pursuance of the directions of the Prime Minister, a system of monthly review of social sector schemes at the State level has also been operationalised. This mechanism aims to ensure regular monitoring, faster resolution of implementation issues and greater accountability at the State and district levels. As part of this initiative, Swachh Bharat Mission has been taken up for review at the State level in the first instance.
