Our victory is certain but for the democracy's blessing you need to go out and vote for the lotus: PM Modi

Addressing a public meeting in Koderma, Jharkhand, Prime Minister Narendra Modi cautioned first-time voters against the 'Mission Mahamilavat', saying they do not want that a government with absolute majority is formed at any cost. "Congress wants a weak government they can remote control," PM Modi said.

Drawing a powerful analogy between religion and voting, the PM said, "There are some who are telling people to not go out in the heat and vote since Modi is anyway going to win. Don’t listen to them." He asserted, "Just like God blesses you but you still visit temples, similarly, our victory is certain but for the democracy's blessing you need to go out and vote for the lotus."

"Mission Mahamilaawat wants a government at the centre which can do scams, can do anything they want, can run dynasty politics, but not work for the people. This Mahamilaawat was seen before also. Congress formed a Mahamilaawat so that Atal Bihari Vajpayee could not be elected," said Prime Minister Modi in Koderma.

Talking about farmers’ welfare, PM Modi remarked, "We have decided that on May 23, when BJP will come to power again, the benefits of PM Kisan Yojana will be made available to every farmer family."

PM Modi also talked about how the state has grown by leaps and bounds under the Modi Government, he said that Modern health and wellness centers were being set up at several villages in Jharkhand. He added that a medical college each in Koderma and Chaibasa were being made and construction of AIIMS in Deoghar was in progress.

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi earlier today chaired the meeting of the 45th edition of PRAGATI, the ICT-based multi-modal platform for Pro-Active Governance and Timely Implementation, involving Centre and State governments.

In the meeting, eight significant projects were reviewed, which included six Metro Projects of Urban Transport and one project each relating to Road connectivity and Thermal power. The combined cost of these projects, spread across different States/UTs, is more than Rs. 1 lakh crore.

Prime Minister stressed that all government officials, both at the Central and State levels, must recognize that project delays not only escalate costs but also hinder the public from receiving the intended benefits.

During the interaction, Prime Minister also reviewed Public Grievances related to the Banking & Insurance Sector. While Prime Minister noted the reduction in the time taken for disposal, he also emphasized on the quality of disposal of the grievances.

Considering more and more cities are coming up with Metro Projects as one of the preferred public transport systems, Prime Minister advised conducting workshops for experience sharing for cities where projects are under implementation or in the pipeline, to capture the best practices and learnings from experiences.

During the review, Prime Minister stressed on the importance of timely Rehabilitation and Resettlement of Project Affected Families during implementation of projects. He further asked to ensure ease of living for such families by providing quality amenities at the new place.

PM also reviewed PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana. He directed to enhance the capacity of installations of Rooftops in the States/UTs by developing a quality vendor ecosystem. He further directed to reduce the time required in the process, starting from demand generation to operationalization of rooftop solar. He further directed states to adopt a saturation approach for villages, towns and cities in a phased manner.

Up to the 45th edition of PRAGATI meetings, 363 projects having a total cost of around Rs. 19.12 lakh crore have been reviewed.
