Karnataka stands firmly with ‘Chowkidar’: PM Modi in Karnataka

Why were Congress-JD(S) leaders shedding tears for Pakistan when we attacked its terrorist camps while the entire world was standing besides us: PM Modi in Karnataka
The upcoming elections are about electing a strong government that puts the welfare of its people first: PM Modi
Nobody knows who is running the government in Karnataka because both Congress and JD(S) are busy in out-maneuvering each other: Prime Minister Modi
While the Opposition parties are busy pitting communities against each other, we are striving towards building a ‘New India’: PM Modi

Taking on the ruling Congress-JD(S) combine in the state for their questionable stands on national security, PM Modi said, “The entire country witnessed how we responded strongly and attacked terrorist camps in Pakistan recently. While it is natural that Pakistan was hurt but what was more surprising is how Congress and JD(S) leaders were shedding tears for Pakistan instead of proudly appreciating the valour of our armed forces.

Some of them were even busy in passing resolutions condemning our strong action against Pakistan while the whole world was standing besides us. I wonder why they were so upset. Do they have vote-banks in Pakistan or in India? ”

Highlighting the importance of the coming Lok Sabha elections in deciding the future of the country, Prime Minister Modi said, “The upcoming elections are not about electing MPs or the Prime Minister of the country rather they are about electing a strong government that puts the welfare of its people first. The best example can be seen from Karnataka itself where nobody actually knows who is running the government because both these parties that formed an opportunist alliance in Karnataka to grab power are now busy handling and out-maneuvering each other.” 

Contrasting the politics of the BJP and Congress, PM Modi described, “While Opposition parties like JD(S) and Congress are busy in politics of appeasement, division and vote-banks, BJP on the other hand, has redefined and implemented the politics of development that rises beyond caste or communal identities and works equally for every Indian. While they are busy pitting communities against each other, we are striving towards building a ‘New India,’ where everybody has their own house to live in with access to clean fuel, electricity and sanitation. I urge the people to compare the politics between these two parties and then make a wise decision while voting.” 

Expressing his gratitude at the incredible support the BJP government has received from across the nation since assuming power in 2014, Prime Minister Modi asserted that such strong backing of the people made his resolve to serve the people even stronger and helped him take bold decisions in the best interests of the people without worrying about politics. He further expressed happiness that the ‘Main Bhi Chowkidar’ has resonated so strongly with every Indian that they have turned it into a mass movement. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ending his power-packed address in the southern state, PM Modi highlighted some of the key promises and goals of the BJP in its recently launched election manifesto and said, “Our resolve is to build next generation infrastructure in the country in the next five years. We will also significantly strengthen our national security apparatus and secure our borders while working to make India the 3rd largest economy in the world by 2030. With the support of the people, I am sure that the BJP will provide the country with a strong, stable, decisive and transparent government that will fulfill the aspirations of the 21st century India.”

PM shares Sanskrit Subhashitam highlighting the power of hard work and human endeavor

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi today stated that as we mark Partition Horrors Remembrance Day, we recall the courage of all those who were impacted by Partition. He noted that it was a moment in history that tore apart several lives, where families were uprooted, loved ones were lost, and immense suffering was endured.

The Prime Minister highlighted that at the same time, overcoming this, people rebuilt their lives from nothing, turned adversity into achievement, and contributed immensely to our nation’s progress. He observed that their life journeys remind us of the strength of the human spirit. Shri Modi expressed hope that this day may deepen our resolve to preserve harmony and brotherhood in our nation and collectively work towards building a Viksit Bharat.

He stated that through their courage and capability, they showed how resolutions are accomplished even in adverse circumstances.

Sharing a Subhashitam, the Prime Minister emphasized that it is through hard work, enterprise, and dedicated effort that diverse arts, science, technological skills, craftsmanship, and innovations flourish, paving the way for success. He added that therefore, one should not remain dependent on fate; rather, one should move steadily towards one's goals with courage, diligence, and persistent effort, for it is human endeavor that shapes destiny.

"विभाजन विभीषिका स्मृति दिवस पर उन सभी देशवासियों का हृदय से नमन, जिन्होंने उस वीभत्स दौर से निकलकर देश की प्रगति में अमूल्य योगदान दिया। उन्होंने अपने साहस और सामर्थ्य से दिखाया कि कैसे विपरीत परिस्थितियों में भी संकल्पों को सिद्ध किया जाता है। आइए, सद्भावना और एकजुटता की राष्ट्रीय भावना को और सशक्त करें।

उद्यमस्य प्रसादेन दृश्यन्ते विविधाः कलाः।
कातरा एव जल्पन्ति यद् भाव्यं तद् भविष्यति॥”
