PM Modi says every corrupt person, goon, rioter, tyrant and every leader of Congress has considered himself the government of Rajasthan. Congress left no stone unturned in looting the state

In Chittorgarh, Rajasthan, PM Modi remarked that the sentiments and aspirations of both Rajasthan and Mewar are vividly evident in the immense crowd gathered here today. Entire Rajasthan is saying – ‘Rajasthan ko Bachayenge, Bhajpa Sarkar ko Layenge’. In a public address, the PM expressed deep regret over the five-year tenure of the Congress government in Rajasthan, citing a tarnished reputation for the state due to rising crime, anarchy, riots, stone pelting, and atrocities against women, Dalits, and backward classes.

Taking the attack to the Congress in Rajasthan, PM Modi said, “By misleading the people of the state, Congress formed the government here but could not run the government. Here Gehlot ji was busy saving the Chief Minister's chair while sleeping and half of the Congress was busy in demolishing his chair. Leaving the public to fend for itself, these people remained busy fighting among themselves. Yes, there was always consensus in Congress on one subject. Congress left no stone unturned in looting Rajasthan.”

The PM reiterated, “In Rajasthan, the message is clear: The BJP's arrival promises an end to hooliganism, riots, stone pelting, dishonesty, and brings increased women's security, employment opportunities, and prosperity for the state.”

PM Modi mentioned that the Chief Minister of the Congress is now urging that their schemes should continue even after the BJP government takes office. “I assure the people of Rajasthan that no scheme of public interest will be stopped, rather it will be made better. This is Modi's guarantee. Modi's guarantee means guarantee of fulfillment of every guarantee,” he added.

PM Modi emphasized, "I want to provide an assurance. Those who have engaged in corruption and embezzled funds meant for the poor will face consequences. Regardless of the criticism and attempts to undermine me, our relentless anti-corruption efforts will persist. The BJP will also thoroughly investigate the betrayal of the youth in Rajasthan. The paper leak racket will be rooted out and held accountable. I guarantee you that the Paperleaks mafia will face severe punishment, and they will not escape justice."

The Prime Minister mentioned that the Congress had left the One Rank One Pension issue unresolved for decades. However, under Modi's leadership, the promise of One Rank One Pension for our armed forces' families was swiftly fulfilled.

“Whenever Congress is sure that it is going to lose the elections, it starts making false announcements. In Rajasthan too, they are playing a similar game and are trying to deceive the public. But Modi is fulfilling the guarantee of poor welfare,” the PM added.

Addressing the issues during Corona period, PM Modi said that Modi fulfilled this guarantee and ensured that every family's stove remained burning during the Corona period. Modi fulfilled this guarantee of free Corona vaccine, made sure every poor person got free treatment in the hospital, he added.

Talking about empowering the poor and backward community, PM Modi said, “Today I am giving another guarantee to every poor, Dalit, backward and tribal family of Rajasthan. Modi will provide a permanent roof and permanent house to every poor person. As soon as the BJP government is formed here, the houses under the PM Awas Yojana will be built faster.”

Addressing the water and irrigation problems in Rajasthan, PM Modi said “Today, disputes are happening in other states over water. One state is not giving water to another state. When I was the Gujarat CM, I gave water to Rajasthan and there was no Court matter or anything.”

“Modi has also guaranteed to provide piped water to lakhs of families in Rajasthan. As soon as the BJP government will be formed, water will reach other families also at a faster pace and will address the irrigation problem,” he added.

Attacking Congress over schemes to empower Dalit, tribal and poor people, PM Modi said, “Whatever plans Congress makes, it is not possible for them to get it implemented without corruption. This arbitrariness of Congress will no longer work here. The BJP government ensures that the beneficiaries get their rights directly and in full.”

Highlighting the benefits people received under BJP’s governance, PM said, “In the last 9 years, the BJP government has transferred lakhs of crores of rupees directly into the bank accounts of the beneficiaries through direct benefits. The PM Kisan Samman Nidhi comes directly into the bank account of the farmer today without any middlemen or commission or without going to any office.”

“Modi's model is the same - direct benefits to every beneficiary. That's why Rajasthan is confident that BJP will come and dishonesty will go,” he added.

“This anti-development environment will have to be changed that Congress has created in Rajasthan. Be it a rioter or a criminal, only the BJP government can correct him, this is our track record. That's why people are saying that BJP will come and stop the riots,” said the PM on account of creating a safe environment of living and opportunities in Rajasthan.

Talking about women’s security and work opportunities for women, PM Modi said, “My mothers, sisters and daughters also know that Modi is fulfilling every guarantee given to them. In the last 9 years, it is the BJP government that has opened the doors of military schools and deployment in the front lines of the army for daughters.”

Emphasizing the possibilities and opportunities that Rajasthan poses, the Prime Minister said, “This entire area of Mewar is an area of limitless possibilities. Even today, the foundation stone of projects has been laid and inaugurated in Chittorgarh. This will expand the industry in Rajasthan and thousands of new jobs will be created.”

“BJP wants to make Rajasthan number one in tourism. For this we are emphasizing on both connectivity and culture. That's why Rajasthan is saying - BJP will come, will bring convenience and prosperity,” the PM added.

Highlighting the benefits of the PM Vishwakarma Yojana, PM Modi said, “BJP is working for our potters, carpenters, gardeners etc and lakhs of such families, which no one asked for. That's why our government came up with the PM Vishwakarma Yojana. For this, the BJP government is giving thousands of rupees to Vishwakarma friends.”

During his concluding remarks, PM Modi said, “Every guarantee of Modi has to be taken to every booth. Our face, our character, our hope is lotus and the candidate is lotus. We will make the lotus bloom, we will make BJP win, we have to set out with this aim.”

India-Australia Roadmap for Sports Collaboration
July 10, 2026

Sports is a powerful bridge between India and Australia, bringing communities together and opening new pathways for collaboration.

Building on the 2023 MoU on Cooperation in Sports, the India-Australia Roadmap for Sports Collaboration sets out practical, future-focused priorities and opportunities to strengthen this cornerstone of our bilateral relationship.

Recognising the decade of opportunity ahead — including the 2030 Commonwealth Games in Ahmedabad, the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, and India’s ambition to host a future Olympic and Paralympic Games — this Roadmap identifies targeted areas of cooperation aligned to shared priorities, capabilities and resources.

Respecting differences in the governance of sport and the development of sport ecosystems in Australia and India, and recognising the leadership role of sporting bodies, businesses, state–level governments, universities and community groups in promoting elite and community sports, we are committed to facilitating engagement and supporting collaborative ways of working between relevant institutions, to encourage stronger sports partnerships at all levels that benefits both countries.

Implementation will be pragmatic and outcomes-focused, with activities prioritised in line with available resources and major event timelines.

Cooperation will be delivered through established partnerships, supported by flexible, demand-led arrangements, whereby responsibility for resourcing activities will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis. This approach ensures practical, sustainable and mutually beneficial outcomes.

In this context, the following have been identified as focus areas for collaboration under this Roadmap:

A. Capacity Building:

o Collaborate for sharing best practice in establishing and operating High-Performance Sports Centres in India in priority sports.

o Identify Para sport as a key priority and opportunity for collaboration, including Australian expertise in Para classification, coaching and performance support, with potential links between Indian and Australian universities where appropriate.

o Drawing on Australia’s coach development models, facilitate two-way exchanges that bring Indian coach and coach educators to Australia and Australian coaches and coach educators to India, using a Train the Trainer approach where appropriate.

o A physical education exchange programme between India and Australia may be introduced to facilitate mutual learning, sharing of best practices, and collaboration in areas such as school sports, sports science, and community participation in physical education.

o Recognising the physical and mental health benefits of yoga and the World Yogasana, the federation for yogasana sports based in India, identify opportunities to share knowledge, foster collaboration and encourage participation in yoga in Australia.

o Work with the Australian Sports Commission to build the capability of select Indian coaches as part of the India Australia High Performance Coach Development program.

o Explore opportunities through relevant non-government stakeholders such as sporting organisations and universities to support talented young Indian sportspersons as part of high-performance programs in Australia through student scholarships funded by Government of India.

B. Collaborative Sports Science and Technology Research:

o Encourage joint research and development projects between universities in India and Australia on athlete performance analytics, injury prevention, sports nutrition, wearable performance technology, recovery techniques and Para sport.

o Encourage partnerships between Indian and Australian universities to co-develop sports curriculums.

o Sport Integrity Australia and National Anti-Doping Agency India contribute to international anti-doping efforts by supporting World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA)-led capacity building programs through engagement with the WADA Asia/Oceania Office, and through representation on the UNESCO International Convention against Doping in Sport (Convention) Groups.

C. Major Sporting Events:

o Collaborate with Australian States and Territories, and National Sporting Organisations to exchange best practices for hosting large events.

o Explore opportunities to host exhibition matches and youth events in both countries to promote sports of mutual interest (such as Kabaddi and Kho Kho in Australia, and Australian Football League and basketball in India).

o Leverage the build-up to major sporting events such as Olympic, Paralympic and Commonwealth Games to establish formal, reciprocal arrangements between Indian and Australian sporting bodies for shared facilities, competitions and support networks during and in the build-up to major sporting events.

o Welcoming the inaugural Big Bash League match to be played in India in Chennai in December 2026, encourage Cricket Australia and the Board of Control for Cricket in India to work towards a commitment to host annual BBL matches in India.

D. Sports Industry and Investment Platform:

o Build on the Australia-funded Sports Industry Summit in Mumbai in December 2026 to promote collaboration between Indian and Australian companies on sports equipment manufacturing, sports media and broadcasting, event management, and sports start-ups.

o Facilitate Australian sports sector businesses in the Indian sports market through information sessions and vice-versa.

o Expand India’s export of high quality, competitively priced sports goods to Australia.

o Expand the export of Australian expertise in high performance sports, including coaching, coach development, strength and conditioning, athlete wellbeing, nutrition and psychology.

E. Women in Sports Partnership:

o Launch joint initiatives promoting women’s leadership, health, high performance and participation in sport, including bilateral tournaments for women athletes, drawing on the Australian Sports Commission’s flagship programs, recognising that sport is a powerful pathway for women’s economic empowerment, leadership, health and social inclusion.
