On his visit to Tamil Nadu, PM Modi addressed a public rally in Kanyakumari. He said, "There is a wave of confidence among the people of Tamil Nadu to reject any mandate that goes against the interests of India." He added, "Tamil Nadu will shatter the false confidence and pride of the I.N.D.I. alliance". He said that he had embarked on an ‘Ekta Rally’ in 1991 from Kanyakumari to Kashmir and today I have returned from Kashmir to Kanyakumari.
When lamenting the corruption-led governance of the I.N.D.I alliance, PM Modi said, "On one hand, our record is of unprecedented development, and on the other hand, the I.N.D.I. alliance holds a record of crores of scams." He said that we established 5G towers, and they only gave India the 2G scam. He noted that the BJP is committed to developing Tamil Nadu, and all its government schemes and development initiatives are oriented towards the same.
Showcasing how DMK-Congress stalled the infra development of Tamil Nadu, PM Modi stated, "Our government completed the Kanyakumari-Narikulam bridge, which DMK-Congress stalled." He added that our government has completed the construction of the 4-lane highway between Kanyakumari and Thiruvananthapuram, and the same is the case for the Marthandam-Parvatipuram flyover. He said, "The B.J.P. has fulfilled the construction of a double-rail bridge, which has been a dream of 40 years for the people of Tamil Nadu."
Speaking on strengthening India's maritime capabilities and fostering port-led development, PM Modi said, "Our government is steadfastly committed to port-led development in Tamil Nadu, empowering the lives of the fishermen community." He also lauded the contribution of Joe. D Cruz who has worked tirelessly for the empowerment of the fishermen community of Tamil Nadu.
Addressing the unprecedented infra development of Tamil Nadu, PM Modi said, "The past ten years have seen the completion of highway projects at an unprecedented rate in Tamil Nadu." He added that various projects are ongoing in the state, enabling the promise of superior infra connectivity in the state.
Highlighting DMK-Congress' dislike for Tamil Nadu and India's culture, PM Modi said, "Both DMK-Congress are against Tamil Nadu's timeless traditions & culture." He added that they were even against the Pran-Pratishtha of Shri Ram. He said, "The DMK-Congress even supported the ban against 'Jallikattu', which is the pride of Tamil Nadu and its people." He added that our government reinstated the practice of 'Jallikattu' with total respect and dignity. He said, "They even opposed the holy 'Sengol' installation in the New Parliament Building."
Taking a dig at the I.N.D.I alliance, PM Modi said, "I.N.D.I alliance is playing with the lives of the people of Tamil Nadu and has befooled its people." He said, "Even when our fishermen were languishing in Sri Lankan jails, they did nothing, and it was our government that got them back safely."
PM Modi said, "Women Empowerment is NDA's promise & priority for the empowerment of Nari Shakti." He noted that the DMK-Congress had disrespected Nari Shakti. He said, "DMK-Congress supports crime against women and also politicizes issues for convenience." He added, "This alliance even opposed the Nari Shakti Vandan Act that aimed to secure the political rights & participation of our Nari Shakti."
In conclusion, he said that we must embrace technology to develop Tamil Nadu. He added, "The NaMoInTamil handle on social media will enable us to connect and collectively envisage the development of Tamil Nadu." He also thanked the people of Tamil Nadu and sought their blessings and support in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
I had undertaken Ekta Yatra from Kanyakumari to Kashmir in 1991 and this time I have come to Kanyakumari from Kashmir.

The people of Jammu and Kashmir have rejected those who dream of breaking the country.
Now the people of Tamil Nadu are also going to do the same. pic.twitter.com/WsCylSxuvV
The INDI alliance of DMK and Congress can never develop Tamil Nadu.
