The situation of the Congress, which ruled for 60 years, is very worrying: PM Modi in Sabarkantha

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed public meetings in Banaskantha and Sabarkantha, Gujarat, marking the celebration of Gujarat's Foundation Day. PM Modi began his speech by expressing gratitude for the opportunity to seek blessings for his third term in the central government, emphasizing the significance of Gujarat in his political journey.

PM Modi commended the people of Gujarat for their discernment in not allowing political instability to take root in the state. He lauded their decision to reject short-term temptations and maintain stability, which has been instrumental in Gujarat's progress.

PM Modi criticized the Congress party for its lack of vision and commitment to serving the people, citing examples from past elections where Congress resorted to personal attacks instead of addressing substantive issues. “Even today Congress neither has issues nor the passion to work for the people. Do you remember, what were the issues of Congress in 2014? What will a Chaiwala do? But the country responded to them... Those who once occupied 400 seats were reduced to 40,” PM Modi added.

PM Modi underscored the importance of preserving the principles of the Constitution and ensuring social justice for all sections of society. He assured that the BJP government would safeguard the interests of ST-SC-OBC communities and prevent any attempt to politicize reservations based on religion.

PM Modi called out Congress for resorting to desperate tactics in the ongoing elections, including spreading fake videos and misinformation. “The party which ruled the country for 60 years has become a fake factory. What they called Mohabbat Ki Dukan is actually a fake factory. Congress' videos are fake, Congress' words are fake, Congress' promises are fake, Congress’ slogans are fake, Congress intentions are fake,” the PM remarked. He emphasized that the BJP stands firm against such deceitful practices and remains committed to serving the nation with honesty and integrity.

PM Modi urged the people of Gujarat to support the BJP in the upcoming elections, emphasizing the importance of voting in large numbers. He said, “To accelerate every work of welfare and nation-building, you must vote for the BJP on May 7th. Vote in large numbers at every booth. Remember, first voting, then feasting.”

Addressing his second public meeting in Sabarkantha, Gujarat, PM Modi highlighted the progress made in the region and reiterated his commitment to serve the nation with dedication and integrity. PM Modi reminisced about the timeless bond between him and the people of Sabarkantha, emphasizing that despite the changes over the decades, the love and familiarity remain steadfast. He said, "If your love hasn't changed, how can Modi change?"

Reflecting on his achievements, PM Modi highlighted the decisive steps taken by his government, including the historic decision to abrogate Article 370. "The Congress scared the country that if Article 370 is removed, there will be chaos. Article 370 is history now, and there is no chaos in the country. And the tricolor is flying high at Lal Chowk," he stated.

PM Modi also addressed issues such as terrorism, triple talaq, and CAA, emphasizing his government's commitment to national security and social justice. He criticized the Congress for its divisive politics and highlighted the failures of the opposition party during the COVID-19 pandemic.

He said, “The situation of the Congress, which ruled for 60 years, is very worrying. They are openly trying to divide the country. The only strategy of Congress and its INDI alliance is to spread lawlessness and instability in the country. They want to set the country on fire, no matter what, to defame Modi. They did the same during the biggest disaster in the country, the Corona pandemic. Their COVID mission failed, their vaccination mission failed, so they tried to set the country on fire. When we brought the CAA law, they tried to set the country on fire again.”

The Prime Minister stressed upon importance of the first-time voters’ awareness and said, “The young voters casting their votes for the first time this time don't have the experience of those old days. When Congress was ruling, for those whose parents sent them out, electricity, water, school, everything was just a dream. From Ambaji to Umargam, there were no schools for science education in the entire tribal area. Today, see, there are schools everywhere. There are medical colleges. There is adequate electricity available now.”

PM Modi emphasized his government's efforts to address healthcare challenges, especially in tribal communities. Warning against the divisive politics of the opposition, PM Modi urged the people to vote for stability and progress. He called upon voters to support BJP candidates in the upcoming elections, emphasizing the need to defeat forces that seek to spread chaos and instability.

In his concluding remarks, PM Modi reiterated his commitment to serving the nation and called upon the people of Sabarkantha to support the BJP in the upcoming elections. He urged them to make the lotus bloom at every booth, ensuring a resounding victory for the BJP and the continuation of the Modi government's transformative agenda.

PM Modi’s remarks at the BRICS session: Environment, COP-30, and Global Health
July 07, 2025

Your Highness,
Excellencies,

I am glad that under the chairmanship of Brazil, BRICS has given high priority to important issues like environment and health security. These subjects are not only interconnected but are also extremely important for the bright future of humanity.

Friends,

This year, COP-30 is being held in Brazil, making discussions on the environment in BRICS both relevant and timely. Climate change and environmental safety have always been top priorities for India. For us, it's not just about energy, it's about maintaining a balance between life and nature. While some see it as just numbers, in India, it's part of our daily life and traditions. In our culture, the Earth is respected as a mother. That’s why, when Mother Earth needs us, we always respond. We are transforming our mindset, our behaviour, and our lifestyle.

Guided by the spirit of "People, Planet, and Progress”, India has launched several key initiatives — such as Mission LiFE (Lifestyle for Environment), 'Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam' (A Tree in the Name of Mother), the International Solar Alliance, the Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure, the Green Hydrogen Mission, the Global Biofuels Alliance, and the Big Cats Alliance.

During India’s G20 Presidency, we placed strong emphasis on sustainable development and bridging the gap between the Global North and South. With this objective, we achieved consensus among all countries on the Green Development Pact. To encourage environment-friendly actions, we also launched the Green Credits Initiative.

Despite being the world’s fastest-growing major economy, India is the first country to achieve its Paris commitments ahead of schedule. We are also making rapid progress toward our goal of achieving Net Zero by 2070. In the past decade, India has witnessed a remarkable 4000% increase in its installed capacity of solar energy. Through these efforts, we are laying a strong foundation for a sustainable and green future.

Friends,

For India, climate justice is not just a choice, it is a moral obligation. India firmly believes that without technology transfer and affordable financing for countries in need, climate action will remain confined to climate talk. Bridging the gap between climate ambition and climate financing is a special and significant responsibility of developed countries. We take along all nations, especially those facing food, fuel, fertilizer, and financial crises due to various global challenges.

These countries should have the same confidence that developed countries have in shaping their future. Sustainable and inclusive development of humanity cannot be achieved as long as double standards persist. The "Framework Declaration on Climate Finance” being released today is a commendable step in this direction. India fully supports this initiative.

Friends,

The health of the planet and the health of humanity are deeply intertwined. The COVID-19 pandemic taught us that viruses do not require visas, and solutions cannot be chosen based on passports. Shared challenges can only be addressed through collective efforts.

Guided by the mantra of 'One Earth, One Health,' India has expanded cooperation with all countries. Today, India is home to the world’s largest health insurance scheme "Ayushman Bharat”, which has become a lifeline for over 500 million people. An ecosystem for traditional medicine systems such as Ayurveda, Yoga, Unani, and Siddha has been established. Through Digital Health initiatives, we are delivering healthcare services to an increasing number of people across the remotest corners of the country. We would be happy to share India’s successful experiences in all these areas.

I am pleased that BRICS has also placed special emphasis on enhancing cooperation in the area of health. The BRICS Vaccine R&D Centre, launched in 2022, is a significant step in this direction. The Leader’s Statement on "BRICS Partnership for Elimination of Socially Determined Diseases” being issued today shall serve as new inspiration for strengthening our collaboration.

Friends,

I extend my sincere gratitude to all participants for today’s critical and constructive discussions. Under India’s BRICS chairmanship next year, we will continue to work closely on all key issues. Our goal will be to redefine BRICS as Building Resilience and Innovation for Cooperation and Sustainability. Just as we brought inclusivity to our G-20 Presidency and placed the concerns of the Global South at the forefront of the agenda, similarly, during our Presidency of BRICS, we will advance this forum with a people-centric approach and the spirit of ‘Humanity First.’

Once again, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to President Lula on this successful BRICS Summit.

Thank you very much.
