Telangana has turmeric, talent, tradition, and technology but still, Telangana could not get its right place due to BRS's bad governance: PM Modi in Maheshwaram
In Maheshwaram, PM Modi says this time Telangana will refuse appeasement, rejecting both Congress and BRS and will bestow a historic mandate on the BJP

Ahead of the Telangana assembly election, PM Modi addressed emphatic public meetings in Kamareddy and Maheshwaram today. He said, “"Whenever I come to Telangana, I see a wave of hope among the people here. This wave is the wave of expectation. It is the wave of change. It is the wave of the sentiment that Telangana should achieve the height of development that it deserves.”

In a spirited rally, PM Modi asserted, “I know that the people here want to break free from the past of betrayal. The people here are tired of the 9 years of BRS rule and they want freedom from BRS. The people here want freedom from the Congress, which, despite being in power for seven decades, consistently neglected this entire region. And that's why... this time, the wind is blowing in favor of the BJP. The people of Telangana are hopeful for change with the BJP."

"We had promised to establish a Turmeric Board for the people of Telangana. This promise has also been fulfilled by the BJP government. We had committed to the creation of a Central Tribal University, and the BJP government has demonstrated its commitment by fulfilling this promise as well,” the PM said.

Criticizing the Congress for betraying the backward classes, Prime Minister Modi remarked, “Modi's guarantee means a guarantee of fulfillment. Therefore, today the people of the BC community in Telangana are enthusiastic because the BJP has promised to make a Chief Minister from the BC community here. It is the BJP that has appointed a record number of Central Ministers from the BC community in the country. And it is the BJP that has given the country an OBC Prime Minister.”

In a strong condemnation, PM Modi accused the Congress of betraying the backward sections of society, he added, “Neither Congress nor BRS worked for the BC community, nor for the Dalits. Today, what is BRS was once TRS. These people promised that the first CM of Telangana would be from the Dalit community. But when Dalit votes were secured, KCR seized the CM's chair for himself. On the contrary, the BJP has always worked for social justice and social empowerment."

Pointing out at the injustice faced by the Madiga community in the development journey of Telangana, PM Modi iterated, “To put an end to this injustice, the Indian government is forming a committee. This committee will strive to bring you justice and pave a new path for your empowerment. There is also a significant legal process related to the Madiga community underway in the Supreme Court. We are making every possible effort to strengthen this case.”

Coming down heavily on BRS's anti-youth mentality, PM Modi said, "It saddens me that a youth-oriented state like Telangana has received the most youth-hostile government. For years, the government under BRS has betrayed all the thousands of youths preparing for the TS-PSC exam. In addition, these people have completely neglected the education sector."

Taking aim at the BRS and Congress, PM Modi said, “The public of Kamareddy, should reject both these parties. The Chief Minister of BRS and the President of Telangana Congress are both contesting elections from Kamareddy. Additionally, these people are entering elections from other constituencies as well. This demonstrates their desperation.”

Highlighting the shared traits of BRS and Congress, the PM stated, “Both these parties employ various tactics to deceive you. Sometimes, TRS is abruptly transformed into BRS. This year, UPA has been transformed into the INDI Alliance. The people of the country understand these maneuvers very well. Changing names cannot alter their history of corruption, misgovernance, and vote-bank politics."

Addressing his second rally in Maheshwaram, Prime Minister Modi said, “The people of Congress and BRS are consistently engaging in false propaganda here. They level accusations against each other but are secretly aligned.” He further alleged that KCR commenced his political journey with the Congress. The party that appointed him as a cabinet minister in 2004 was the Congress. Even when Telangana was established, KCR aligned himself with leaders from the Congress.

Touching upon the necessity of a BJP government in Telangana, PM Modi said that it would provide a double-engine boost to the development of the state. “Wherever there are BJP governments, they are working to increase people's income and savings. An example of this is the price of petrol. After the central government reduced the price of petrol, BJP-led state governments also lowered the prices of petrol in their respective states. However, in states where the Congress is in power, the prices of petrol have not been reduced. After coming to power, we will reduce VAT on petrol and diesel here, providing relief to the people of Telangana."

Discussing the BJP, a party dedicated to women-led development, the Prime Minister reiterated, “Recently, the BJP has made history by passing the Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam, creating a new chapter for women. Our initiatives like ‘Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao’ and the Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana have been praised worldwide. For the creation of women entrepreneurs at the grassroots level in villages, the Telangana BJP has undertaken new initiatives. I am confident that the women of Telangana will form the strongest support base for the BJP."

Furthermore, taking a swipe at BRS and Congress, PM Modi remarked, "The BJP is the only party that is concerned about the future of your children. In contrast, both the Congress and BRS are worried about their children. But I believe, this time, the people of Telangana will reject family-oriented politics. This time, Telangana will reject appeasement that leads to rejection of both Congress and BRS. I have confidence that the people of Telangana will bless the BJP with a historic mandate."

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the 5th National Conference of Chief Secretaries in Delhi, earlier today. The three-day Conference was held in Pusa, Delhi from 26 to 28 December, 2025.

Prime Minister observed that this conference marks another decisive step in strengthening the spirit of cooperative federalism and deepening Centre-State partnership to achieve the vision of Viksit Bharat.

Prime Minister emphasised that Human Capital comprising knowledge, skills, health and capabilities is the fundamental driver of economic growth and social progress and must be developed through a coordinated Whole-of-Government approach.

The Conference included discussions around the overarching theme of ‘Human Capital for Viksit Bharat’. Highlighting India's demographic advantage, the Prime Minister stated that nearly 70 percent of the population is in the working-age group, creating a unique historical opportunity which, when combined with economic progress, can significantly accelerate India's journey towards Viksit Bharat.

Prime Minister said that India has boarded the “Reform Express”, driven primarily by the strength of its young population, and empowering this demographic remains the government’s key priority. Prime Minister noted that the Conference is being held at a time when the country is witnessing next-generation reforms and moving steadily towards becoming a major global economic power.

He further observed that Viksit Bharat is synonymous with quality and excellence and urged all stakeholders to move beyond average outcomes. Emphasising quality in governance, service delivery and manufacturing, the Prime Minister stated that the label "Made in India' must become a symbol of excellence and global competitiveness.

Prime Minister emphasised the need to strengthen Aatmanirbharta, stating that India must pursue self-reliance with zero defect in products and minimal environmental impact, making the label 'Made in India' synonymous with quality and strengthen our commitment to 'Zero Effect, Zero Defect.’ He urged the Centre and States to jointly identify 100 products for domestic manufacturing to reduce import dependence and strengthen economic resilience in line with the vision of Viksit Bharat.

Prime Minister emphasised the need to map skill demand at the State and global levels to better design skill development strategies. In higher education too, he suggested that there is a need for academia and industry to work together to create high quality talent.

For livelihoods of youth, Prime Minister observed that tourism can play a huge role. He highlighted that India has a rich heritage and history with a potential to be among the top global tourist destinations. He urged the States to prepare a roadmap for creating at least one global level tourist destination and nourishing an entire tourist ecosystem.

PM Modi said that it is important to align the Indian national sports calendar with the global sports calendar. India is working to host the 2036 Olympics. India needs to prepare infrastructure and sports ecosystem at par with global standards. He observed that young kids should be identified, nurtured and trained to compete at that time. He urged the States that the next 10 years must be invested in them, only then will India get desired results in such sports events. Organising and promoting sports events and tournaments at local and district level and keeping data of players will create a vibrant sports environment.

PM Modi said that soon India would be launching the National Manufacturing Mission (NMM). Every State must give this top priority and create infrastructure to attract global companies. He further said that it included Ease of Doing Business, especially with respect to land, utilities and social infrastructure. He also called upon states to encourage manufacturing, boost ‘Ease of Doing Business’ and strengthen the services sector. In the services sector, PM Modi said that there should be greater emphasis on other areas like Healthcare, education, transport, tourism, professional services, AI, etc. to make India a Global Services Giant.

Prime Minister also emphasized that as India aspires to be the food basket of the world, we need to shift to high value agriculture, dairy, fisheries, with a focus on exports. He pointed out that the PM Dhan Dhanya Scheme has identified 100 districts with lower productivity. Similarly, in learning outcomes States must identify the lowest 100 districts and must work on addressing the issues around the low indicators.

PM also urged the States to use Gyan Bharatam Mission for digitization of manuscripts. He said that States may start a Abhiyan to digitize such manuscripts available in States. Once these manuscripts are digitized, Al can be used for synthesizing the wisdom and knowledge available.

Prime Minister noted that the Conference reflects India’s tradition of collective thinking and constructive policy dialogue, and that the Chief Secretaries Conference, institutionalised by the Government of India, has become an effective platform for collective deliberation.

Prime Minister emphasised that States should work in tandem with the discussions and decisions emerging from both the Chief Secretaries and the DGPs Conferences to strengthen governance and implementation.

Prime Minister suggested that similar conferences could be replicated at the departmental level to promote a national perspective among officers and improve governance outcomes in pursuit of Viksit Bharat.

Prime Minister also said that all States and UTs must prepare capacity building plan along with the Capacity Building Commission. He said that use of Al in governance and awareness on cyber security is need of the hour. States and Centre have to put emphasis on cyber security for the security of every citizen.

Prime Minister said that the technology can provide secure and stable solutions through our entire life cycle. There is a need to utilise technology to bring about quality in governance.

In the conclusion, Prime Minister said that every State must create 10-year actionable plans based on the discussions of this Conference with 1, 2, 5 and 10 year target timelines wherein technology can be utilised for regular monitoring.

The three-day Conference emphasised on special themes which included Early Childhood Education; Schooling; Skilling; Higher Education; and Sports and Extracurricular Activities recognising their role in building a resilient, inclusive and future-ready workforce.
