The Bengal that was known for its traditions and heritage, is now renowned for political violence everywhere under the TMC government: PM
The period of violence that has been ongoing in Bengal for decades needs to stop now; the youth of Bengal deserve much better than this: PM
I want to tell each party associated with this ‘Maha-milawat’ that their efforts to protect corrupt middlemen will never bear fruit under my watch: PM
Those that were given the responsibility of lifting standard of life of the people of Bengal and to provide them peace, stability and transparency, are themselves indulging in the political culture of killings and violence now: PM
We will ensure that the democratic process that applies to the rest of the nation, also applies to West Bengal: PM
The BJP, will do in Bengal, what it did in Tripura and ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’ will soon be happening in Bengal: PM

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed a huge public rally at Jalpaiguri, West Bengal during his visit to the state today.

At the beginning of his address, PM Modi reminding everyone about the common bond of tea that he shared with the city and people of Jalpaiguri, which is world-renowned for its tea. He said, “Tea, however, also makes me wonder why Didi is so frustrated with this Chaiwala (PM Modi)? Everyone knows how the Siliguri Municipal Corporation is being treated by the state government these days. We are all aware about the situation of lawlessness in North Bengal, irrigation projects are stalled; the Bengal that was known for its traditions and heritage, is now renowned for political violence everywhere under the TMC government.”

Prime Minister Modi contrasted this situation of ill-governance with that of good governance under the BJP-led governments at the Centre and State levels, which have taken numerous initiatives to ensure ease of living and progress for everyone. In this regard, he listed recent government decisions such as the PM-KISAN and PM Shram Yogi Mandhan Yojana for providing social security to the farmers and the unorganized sectors respectively as some of the many transformative measures taken by his government to ensure inclusive development for all.

Taking on the TMC government for its recent ‘dharna’ to create an environment of political chaos, PM Modi said, “Those that were given the responsibility of lifting standard of life of the people of Bengal and to provide them peace, stability and transparency, are themselves indulging in the political culture of killings and violence now. The period of violence that has been ongoing in Bengal for decades needs to stop now; the youth of Bengal deserve much better than this.” The BJP, he added, “will do in Bengal what it did in Tripura and ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’ will soon be happening in Bengal.”

Prime Minister Modi also launched a scathing attack on the Congress party and the ‘Mahagathbandhan’ which he termed ‘Maha-milawat’ in his Lok Sabha speech yesterday, saying, “I want to tell each party associated with this ‘Maha-milawat’ that their efforts to protect corrupt middlemen will never bear fruit under my watch. Neither do they have an ideology nor a vision to drive the country forward. The BJP stands with the people of Bengal. The BJP Karyakarta is not afraid of threats. We will ensure that the democratic process that applies to the rest of the nation, also applies to West Bengal.”

The World This Week On India
December 31, 2024

India has been under the international spotlight this week, with significant developments in diplomacy, economic growth, technological advancement, and cultural recognition. From pivotal diplomatic visits to groundbreaking achievements in defense and technology, India’s story has been one of progress and influence on the world stage.

Diplomatic Triumphs

One of the focal points of this week was the achievements of PM Narendra Modi’s visit to Kuwait on Dec 21-22, the first bilateral prime ministerial visit to the Gulf nation in 43 years.
The world sees the visit PM Narendra Modi’s strategic move to strengthen ties in a region undergoing significant transitions. It not only closes a crucial gap in India’s diplomacy with the Gulf but also signals the nation’s proactive stance in navigating the complex geopolitics of West Asia.

Economic and Technological Advances

  • In the realm of finance and technology, India has made headlines by surpassing China to top the Asian IPO rankings. According to data from Dealogic for 2024, India is poised to become the world’s second-largest equity fundraising market, a testament to the robust investor confidence in the Indian market. This achievement reflects India’s economic resilience and growth potential.
  • India has also taken significant steps towards semiconductor self-reliance. The initiation of construction for semiconductor fabrication and packaging units marks a promising start in the nation’s quest to carve a niche in the global semiconductor industry. Read more about this here.
  • Additionally, India’s maritime sector is set for a transformation, with an investment of $10 billion over the next 25 years to make India one of the world’s top shipbuilding nations. This development not only aims at bolstering India’s maritime capabilities but also positions it as a key player in the global maritime industry.

Defense and Strategic Developments

  • India’s strides in defense technology have also been a topic of global conversation. The successful test of a hypersonic missile places India among an elite group of nations with such capabilities, enhancing its strategic posture in regional geopolitics. This advancement underlines India’s growing military prowess.
  • Adding to the narrative of self-reliance, Prime Minister Modi’s push for domestic production of defense equipment, including the K9 Vajra-T artillery platforms, has been highlighted. This initiative not only boosts the ‘Make in India’ campaign but also fortifies national security through indigenous innovation.

Cultural and Leadership Recognition

  • In the cultural sphere, the influence of Indian cinema was acknowledged with tributes to Shyam Benegal, an influential director known for his contributions to India’s ‘parallel cinema.’ Benegal’s work from the 1970s, which challenged mainstream Bollywood by focussing on social issues, has been celebrated, reflecting India’s rich cultural fabric on the international stage.

Religious Freedom and Vision for the Future

  • The discourse on India’s democratic ethos was enriched by statements from figures like Mary Millben, who praised India’s commitment to religious freedom as a hallmark of its democracy. Such endorsements bolster India’s image as a pluralistic society.
  • India’s goal of Viksit Bharat by 2047 as envisioned by PM Modi has received endorsement from Indermit Gill, chief economist at World Bank. Complementing PM Modi on his vision, Gill believes that India will see its prime potential over the next two decades. Read more about India’s future prospects here.

The week has painted a picture of India as a nation on the move, not just in terms of economic metrics but also in cultural, technological, and diplomatic arenas. The global coverage reflects a growing recognition of India’s multifaceted development and its increasing influence on the world stage.

From the Gulf’s diplomatic corridors to the cutting-edge labs of defense technology, from the boardrooms of American companies to the cultural dialogues of cinema, India’s story this week has been one of global engagement, innovation, and leadership.
