When we took over in 2014, the entire nation was reeling under corruption, inefficiency, double-digit inflation, slow growth and strong anti-incumbency against the government: PM Modi
In contrast to 2014, today, India is not only the fastest growing major economy in the world but there is huge pro-incumbency and confidence amongst the people about the future prospects for India: PM Modi
I urge all my supporters in Bihar to again elect a strong government that ensures their inclusive development rather than an adulterated alliance of corrupt, dynastic political parties: Prime Minister Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed a huge public meeting in the Paliganj constituency of Bihar today where he lashed out at the ‘Mahamilawat’ of Opposition parties for their corruption and divisive politics.

Elaborating on the significance of the ongoing Lok Sabha elections in deciding the future course for the nation, PM Modi said, “The people of the country have seen my work as a Chief Minister and as the Prime Minister for nearly two decades now and they have witnessed how the nation has been transformed in the last five years. When we took over in 2014, the entire nation was reeling under corruption, inefficiency, double-digit inflation, slow growth and strong anti-incumbency against the government. We managed to turn this situation around within five years as a result of which, India is not only the fastest growing major economy in the world but there is huge pro-incumbency and confidence amongst the people about the future prospects for India. “

Taking on the Opposition alliance ‘Mahamilawat’ for indulging in corruption and promoting nepotism in politics, PM Modi said, “It is extremely crucial that the renewed pace of development happening in India since 2014 continues its journey in the years to come and that can only happen under a strong, transparent and people centric government of the BJP-led NDA coming back in power.

The people of Bihar have witnessed how widespread corruption, lawlessness, crime and nepotism become the norm when the ‘Mahamilawati’ Congress and RJD come to power. This is why, I urge all my supporters in Bihar to again elect a strong government that ensures their inclusive development rather than an adulterated alliance of corrupt, dynastic political parties like the Congress-RJD.”

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.
