On the morning of 15th September 2012, Shri Narendra Modi addressed youngsters at Vivekananda Yuva Vikas Parishad in Bhavnagar. Shri Modi spoke on Swami Vivekananda’s dream for a strong India and took on the UPA for its anti-people polices.

On the occasion, Shri Modi made 3 important announcements. Shri Modi stated that the state Government would take over the public hospital in Mahuva, run it and give it the status of a district hospital.

Shri Modi pointed out that there were youngsters he had taken to school with his own hands and today these youngsters want to study more. To help them in that, Shri Modi declared that the Gujarat Government would build a network of 62 hostels that can house more than 32,000 students.

The third announcement is the building of a network of women’s hostels to house 10,000 women in areas where industrial development will take place. He added that budget allocations have already been made on this and that the Government does not merely believing in distributing papers and false promises.

In his speech, Shri Modi paid rich tributes to Swami Vivekananda and said that it was a youngster from India who drew the world’s attention to India’s glorious culture with his speech at the World’s Parliament of Religions in Chicago on 11th September in 1893, the same day when Osama Bin Laden killed thousands on innocents in 2001. The Chief Minister opined that had the world understood the message of the 9/11 of 1893, the destructive 9/11 of 2001 would never have happened.

He shared that during the same World’s Parliament of World Religions in which Swami Vivekananda went, there was Shri Virachand Gandhi hailing from the soil of Bhavnagar who attended the same historic event.

The Chief Minister pointed out that Swami Vivekananda dreamt of an India that is at the pedestal of world leadership and he also had immense faith in the youth to make his dreams into a reality. Shri Modi said it is for the youth to complete this dream of Swami Vivekananda. He added that India is among the youngest nations in the world and this can be a great asset.

Shri Modi spoke about some of the initiatives taken by the Gujarat Government to strengthen Yuva Shakti. He spoke on the need of having a sportsman spirit but affirmed that without sport this spirit cannot be developed which is why the Gujarat Government has taken initiatives such as Khel Mahakumbh where lakhs of youngsters get together and play. The Chief Minister declared that Gujarat has decided to make a sports university and decided to give every district a sports school.

It is not only sports but even according adequate dignity to the youth that has been given importance in Gujarat, Shri Modi pointed out. In this, he spoke about Gujarat’s determined efforts towards reforming the ITIs. He said that Gujarat is the first state encouraging inter-disciplinary studies, which will help children who have second thought on the education choices they have made.

Heeding to requests from the large number of media persons present there that he speak in Hindi, Shri Modi said that this is because Gujarat is the only state from which good news is coming while the news from Delhi are sad news that bring tears to the eye and pain to the hearts.

Shri Modi said that he was honored to have attended the centenary celebrations of Swami Vivekananda’s Chicago lecture in 1893. He added that when Swami ji went to USA, he came back doing India proud but when leaders go to USA today, they do the opposite. He asked how a leader associates Gujarat with Ravana and that too on American soil? He asked the audience how could the land of Gandhi ji, Sardar Patel and Swami Dayananda Saraswati be spoken in such light by a leader?

Expressing strong opposition to the FDI in retail being implemented by UPA, Shri Modi said that the time has come when foreigners will sell us tea, grocery among other things and there will be locks in the establishments of our traders. He further spoke that this will create joblessness and affect the youth of the nation.

Shri Modi declared that he has seen the Prime Minister show spine of 2 occasions- one was during the Indo-USA Nuclear Deal and the second is to allow foreigners into India. He brought out the PM’s double standards when he attributes allowing corruption to ‘coalition compulsions’ but is willing to sacrifice the Government for the interest of foreigners.

From the soil of Bhavnagar, Shri Modi directly questioned the Prime Minister and asked him to tell the nation how many Italian businessmen will come and set shop here and adversely affect the youngsters? He also took on the Government for the mammoth coal scam of Rs. 2 lac crore.

The Chief Minister expressed immense pride in the Yuva Shakti of Gujarat and called them to work towards future of Gujarat. Cabinet Ministers, MPs and MLAs were present on the occasion.

PM Modi addresses a mega public meeting in Ernakulam, Keralam
March 11, 2026
You have given Congress and Left more than 70 years. Now give a chance so that BJP-NDA serves you. You will see a great glimpse of #ViksitKeralam: PM
I am also grateful that the governments in Gulf countries are protecting our citizens. Our Indian embassies are helping them 24x7, says PM Modi
To reduce dependence on petrol and diesel, electric vehicles are being promoted. 100 percent electrification of railways is being carried out: PM Modi
Congress-led UDF is now MMC- Muslim League Maoist Congress, while LDF has long-standing ties with extremist elements like the PDP: PM Modi

Amid a massive gathering in Ernakulam today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the enthusiasm and confidence of the people reflected a strong aspiration for Keralam’s development and a new political direction in the state. He emphasised that the aspirations of the people clearly indicate a desire for faster growth and new opportunities.

Expressing confidence in the people’s mandate, PM Modi said, “The 21st century is a crucial time for Keralam. The state needs a new future and a new beginning. I am happy that the people of Keralam have decided to come out of the cycle of LDF and UDF. The confidence visible in this massive public meeting shows that people are ready for change.”

Highlighting the vision of a double-engine government, He stated Keralam possesses immense natural and human potential. He noted that the state has nature, culture, talent, technology and the blessings of the vast sea. However, he remarked that despite these strengths, development had not progressed at the desired pace due to alternating governments and political patterns that slowed long-term progress.

Calling for a new political direction, PM Modi iterated, “For rapid development, this pattern must change. You have given Congress and the Left more than seventy years. Now give BJP-NDA the next five years and you will see the vision of a Viksit Keralam take shape. You have Modi’s guarantee, what has not changed until now will change and Keralam will move forward.”

The Prime Minister said the vision of BJP-NDA is to position Keralam as a global hub for wellness, tourism and cultural experiences. He said, “For a Viksit Keralam, we must create new opportunities in tourism, talent and technology. The youth of Keralam have tremendous capability, and they should lead new sectors like startups, innovation and emerging technologies.”

Highlighting economic priorities, the PM stated, “Our government has ensured financial support and security for fishermen. Fishermen have been provided access to credit through the Kisan Credit Card and insurance coverage of up to five lakh rupees. Major projects like the Vizhinjam International Seaport show our commitment to strengthening the Blue Economy.”

Addressing concerns related to developments in the Gulf region, PM Modi said the government remains fully committed to the safety and welfare of Indian citizens working abroad. “Whenever any Indian citizen has faced danger anywhere in the world, India has made every effort to bring them back safely. Our embassies and missions are working round the clock to ensure help, food, medical care and support for our people,” he said.

“Whether it was rescuing nurses trapped in Iraq or securing the release of Father Tom from terrorists in Yemen, today’s India does not leave its citizens alone in times of crisis. We also brought Father Alexis Prem Kumar safely back from Afghanistan. Even today, our effort is to ensure safety and every possible assistance for Indians caught in difficult situations,” he added.

Coming down heavily on the Congress, PM Modi said, “It is unfortunate that even in such a serious global situation, the Congress party is indulging in politics. Congress leaders are making provocative statements so that the situation worsens, our people face difficulties and then they can start a campaign of abusing Modi.”

Highlighting the importance of self-reliance, PM Modi said, “India is continuously working to become self-reliant in the energy sector. Solar power capacity is expanding, electric mobility is being promoted and railway electrification is progressing rapidly. These steps are strengthening India’s long-term energy security.”

“On one hand, the BJP-NDA government is working tirelessly to make India self-reliant. On the other hand, Congress and the Left are busy mocking the Aatmanirbhar Bharat campaign. When they were in power, they only increased the country’s dependence on foreign nations. Even today, at a time when the world is facing conflict, Congress, the Left and their ecosystem are spreading rumours and creating panic. I urge the people of the country to stay alert and cautious against such misinformation.”

Criticising political opponents in the state, the Prime Minister said LDF and UDF represent two sides of the same system. He alleged that both groups have been associated with corruption, stalled development and divisive politics, which have hindered the progress of the state.

He continued, “When UDF was in power, the state witnessed the solar scam. Today, under LDF rule, the CMRL scam is dominating the headlines. Look at their partnership even in controversies around the Sabarimala temple. There are allegations of gold loot against leaders of one side and accusations of selling the looted gold against leaders of the other.”

Taking a swipe at the UDF and LDF, PM Modi asserted, "On one side is the UDF led by the Congress, which has now become MMC - Muslim League Maoist Congress. To win elections in Keralam, Congress depends on organisations like Jamaat and others whose radical agendas threaten the peace of the state. On the other side, the LDF has long-standing ties with extremist elements like the PDP, whose leaders are known for spreading extremism among the youth. Therefore, the people of Keralam must remain cautious of both UDF and LDF.”

Calling for a new mandate, the Prime Minister concluded by saying, “The goal of BJP is the development of the nation and the development of Keralam. With a BJP-NDA government here and a double-engine government, Keralam will move ahead with double the speed toward prosperity and growth.”
