Schemes worth thousands of crores of rupees have been offered at Baba's feet for the development of Jharkhand and have been dedicated to the public: PM Modi in Deoghar
The political parties, which adopt short-cuts, put all the money of this investment to entertain the public. Those who do politics of short-cut will never build new airports, will never build new and modern highways: PM Modi
Today we have brought a work culture, a political culture, and a governance model wherein we inaugurate everything that we lay the foundation stone of: PM Modi in Deoghar

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today addressed a public meeting in Deoghar, Jharkhand. PM Modi started his address by recognising the enthusiasm of people. PM Modi said, “The way you have welcomed the festival of development with thousands of diyas, it is wonderful. I am experiencing the same enthusiasm here as well.”

PM Modi told the people that how development of Jharkhand has been a priority of his government, PM Modi said, “Schemes worth thousands of crores of rupees have been offered at Baba's feet for the development of Jharkhand and have been dedicated to the public…The new airport for which I had visited earlier to lay the foundation stone, has also been inaugurated today.”

Talking about India as a land of faith, spirituality and pilgrimage, PM Modi asserted that unprecedented investments are being made today to protect the heritage of India. PM Modi added that tourism is a lucrative industry and a huge source of employment in the country. PM Modi further said, “Today it is the need of the hour that India should preserve its heritage as much as possible and increase modern facilities there.”

PM Modi gave a few examples of how tourism when combined with modern facilities changes the state of the area around the heritage, PM Modi said, “So far this year Varanasi has received three times more tourists as compared to 3 years ago. Due to this growth, the business of hoteliers, dhabas, boatmen, and tea vendors has also increased a lot. We are seeing the same effect in Kedarnath Dham as well, before reconstruction, on an average only 2.5 lakh passengers used to go there in the first two month. Now this year, in the first two months, about 9 lakh devotees have visited Baba Kedarnath.”

PM Modi iterated that the priority of his government is for inclusive development, PM Modi said, “In the last 8 years, we have empowered those who were earlier reduced to only political slogans. Those poor, those tribals, those Dalits, those backward, those sisters and daughters whose number always came last, they are at the first place in our priorities today.”

Hitting out at the opposition PM Modi said, “Those who remained in governments for a long time gave priority only to power, they never had any desire to serve the poor. In such a situation, the system became such that the one who had access, the one who was rich, got every facility first.”

Talking about the efforts of the central government for Jharkhand, PM Modi said, “We are making roads from village to village. 12 lakh poor families of Jharkhand have got pucca houses. We are working relentlessly to ensure that every family gets electricity, the poorest of the poor sisters get cooking gas, every house gets water.” PM Modi further added that Ayushman Bharat was started from Jharkhand and has given 3 crore free treatments to the poor all over the country, of which 12 lakh reside in Jharkhand.

PM Modi finally spoke with the public on an important topic of Short-Cut Politics, PM Modi stated, “It is very easy to get votes from people by making populist promises, adopting short-cuts. Those who adopt short-cuts do not have to work hard nor do they have to think about the far-reaching consequences”. PM Modi further added, “The political parties, which adopt short-cuts, put all the money of this investment to entertain the public. This method is going to stop the development of the country. Those who do politics of short-cut will never build new airports, will never build new and modern highways, will never get AIIMS built, will not work hard for a medical college in every district.”

Calling out the fallacies of the opposition, PM Modi said, “It is very easy for someone to say that from now on there will be no bus ticket in Jharkhand, no money will have to be paid for boarding the auto, nor will there be any rickshaw fare. But such populist announcements, these short-cuts only make people pauper one day.”

PM Modi finally addressed the public on their responsibilities for Deoghar, PM Modi said, “When so many facilities are being built here, then it is your responsibility to take care of them. It is your responsibility to keep Deoghar and Baba Dham clean.”
