PM Modi addressed two public rallies at Badami and Haveri in Karnataka. PM Modi outlined BJP's focus on good governance and urged people to elect a stable and development oriented BJP Government in the state with a full majority.

PM Modi began his address at Badami by greeting the residents in Kannada while also acknowledging Badami as the capital of the Chalukya Dynasty. While addressing the crowd PM Modi said, “Your persistent encouragement and support give me the belief that the BJP will once again come to power in the upcoming elections.”

While the BJP envisaged a double-engine government to enable the development of Karnataka, PM Modi said, “The Congress Party has only indulged in appeasement politics, baseless criticism of the welfare programmes of the poor and the unnecessarily hurling of abuses towards the OBCs, Lingayat Community and Modi.”

Speaking on the development in Badami, PM Modi said, "Siddaramaiah ji claims that it is his Congress party that has facilitated the region's development. But it is the schemes that the BJP Government has implemented enabling the infrastructure creation in the region be it that of roads, railways, or highways.”

PM Modi stated, “The next time when Siddamaramiah ji visits Badami, all of you ask him as to why was the region of Badami deprived of all of its benefits as a region and that why the development of the region was never a priority to the Congress Party.”

PM Modi said that despite so many governments of the Congress Party being elected in the state post-India’s independence, all they indulged was in the misappropriation of funds, rampant corruption, and devising ineffective policies. It is only the BJP that has prioritized the development of Karnataka and its people and has created social infrastructure benefitting many citizens and providing last-mile connectivity.

BJP has promoted the Jan Dhan-Aadhar-Mobile Trinity that has created digital infrastructure eliminating the Congress Party’s system promoting misappropriation of funds and rampant corruption. “The BJP Government has not only been working for the poor by ameliorating poverty and providing them socio-economic benefits but is at every level trying to reduce costs by progressive interventions,” said PM Modi.

PM Modi added, “Another aspect of the development of the people of Karnataka are the mobile devices. In 2014, during the Congress Government, India only had two factories but today India is the second largest mobile manufacturer in the world with over 200 factories. Data connectivity in India has also been a revolution. This twin access to affordable mobiles and internet connectivity has also promoted the development of Karnataka.”

The BJP Government has always tried to promote the importance of local cultural traditions. PM Modi said, “The Chalukyan Dynasty’s greatness in terms of promoting the culture and traditions of Badami is extremely prominent and we have always worked towards preserving the same.” We believe that Badami, Aihole, and Hampi among others are the regions that can be promoted through tourism connectivity providing more opportunities to the people, especially the youth.

The Congress Party has only worked to destabilize and discourage India’s ancient democratic traditions. Congress Party does not even acknowledge India as the ‘Mother of Democracy’ in the world. PM Modi said, “The BJP, has always sought to promote India’s handicrafts, art and culture and sculpture art. Even in Karnataka, the BJP Government has prioritized and given its due respect to people be it ‘Ibrahim Suthar’ (Kabir of Karnataka) or Kadir ji promoting the ‘Bidri Art’.” Karnataka’s various traditions like Kumbara, Kammara, Akkasaliga, Shilpi, and among others are also India’s pride. Ilkal and Guledgudda Sarees are also India’s pride.

The Congress party has only worked towards the destruction of these cultural heritages that span over generations. We, in the capacity of the BJP Government, have not only ensured that these cultures and traditions have been preserved but have also sought to promote their exports and create independent identities for each local product.

PM Modi said, “The BJP Government has worked to improve the conditions of the farmers in the Kalyana-Karnataka region through various supportive initiatives enabling the growth of pulses and edible oil in the region. This has furthered the production of these food crops in the region contributing to the overall development of the region.

PM Modi said that the BJP Government intended to promote the production of edible oil in the region through its Mission Oil Palm. The conditions, he remarked, are suitable not only for palm-oil growth but this region has the potential to make India Atmanirbhar in the palm-oil as well as the edible oil sector.

At a rally in Haveri, Karnataka, PM Modi cited the various development works undertaken by the BJP Government. He said, "The six-lane Chitradurga-Davangere-Haveri expressway and the Hubbali-Chikballapur railway line will facilitate the growth of the region's highways and railways infrastructure. Congress could not develop the state as Congress means total corruption; Congress means scams worth thousands of crores; Congress means 85% commission; Congress means, the party which succumbs to terrorism; Congress means, the party which gives first priority to appeasement; Congress means, the party which encourages divisive politics."

|

The Congress Party has only been interested in giving false commitments to people and setting up committees not enabling the development of the people. PM Modi said, “Even in Himachal Pradesh, the Congress Government had promised to give jobs to one lakh youth after being elected and this promise also has been unfulfilled.” They also committed to 300 units of free electricity but once they were elected, they raised the prices of electricity consumption.

Congress had guaranteed to ameliorate poverty 50 years ago, but even to date, all sections of society are deprived of even the basic benefits said PM Modi. The BJP Government has always worked towards enabling the empowerment of the deprived sections of the people. PM Modi said, “Our priorities and policies have been oriented in providing the real social justice to people” promoting Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas.”

Haveri is also the birthplace of Sant Kanakdas ji who not only was the pioneer of literature in the region but whose values of empathy, social justice, and brotherhood inspire us even today. Also, “The UN celebrating the International Year of Millets or ‘Sri Anna’, 2023 can also be attributed to Sant Kanakdas ji,” said PM Modi.

During the Congress regime, India was the tenth-largest economy in the world. Today, India is the fifth-largest economy in the world, said PM Modi. This has been a monumental change over the past nine years which the world has acknowledged and discussed, said PM Modi. With this achievement, we have also surpassed the economy of the UK that ruled over us for over 200 years, and with this “India's time has arrived”, said PM Modi.

Concluding his remarks, PM Modi urges the people to turn out in large numbers on 10th May and vote for the BJP to enable the continuance of the double-engine Sarkar in Karnataka.

The World This Week On India
February 18, 2025

This week, India reinforced its position as a formidable force on the world stage, making headway in artificial intelligence, energy security, space exploration, and defence. From shaping global AI ethics to securing strategic partnerships, every move reflects India's growing influence in global affairs.

And when it comes to diplomacy and negotiation, even world leaders acknowledge India's strength. Former U.S. President Donald Trump, known for his tough negotiating style, put it simply:

“[Narendra Modi] is a much tougher negotiator than me, and he is a much better negotiator than me. There’s not even a contest.”

With India actively shaping global conversations, let’s take a look at some of the biggest developments this week.

|

AI for All: India and France Lead a Global Movement

The future of AI isn’t just about technology—it’s about ethics and inclusivity. India and France co-hosted the Summit for Action on AI in Paris, where 60 countries backed a declaration calling for AI that is "open," "inclusive," and "ethical." As artificial intelligence becomes a geopolitical battleground, India is endorsing a balanced approach—one that ensures technological progress without compromising human values.

A Nuclear Future: India and France Strengthen Energy Security

In a world increasingly focused on clean energy, India is stepping up its nuclear power game. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and French President Emmanuel Macron affirmed their commitment to developing small modular nuclear reactors (SMRs), a paradigm shift in the transition to a low-carbon economy. With energy security at the heart of India’s strategy, this collaboration is a step toward long-term sustainability.

Gaganyaan: India’s Space Dream Inches Closer

India’s ambitions to send astronauts into space took a major leap forward as the budget for the Gaganyaan mission was raised to $2.32 billion. This is more than just a scientific milestone—it’s about proving that India is ready to stand alongside the world’s leading space powers. A successful human spaceflight will set the stage for future interplanetary missions, pushing India's space program to new frontiers.

India’s Semiconductor Push: Lam Research Bets Big

The semiconductor industry is the backbone of modern technology, and India wants a bigger share of the pie. US chip toolmaker Lam Research announced a $1 billion investment in India, signalling confidence in the country’s potential to become a global chip manufacturing hub. As major companies seek alternatives to traditional semiconductor strongholds like Taiwan, India is positioning itself as a serious contender in the global supply chain.

Defence Partnerships: A New Era in US-India Military Ties

The US and India are expanding their defence cooperation, with discussions of a future F-35 fighter jet deal on the horizon. The latest agreements also include increased US military sales to India, strengthening the strategic partnership between the two nations. Meanwhile, India is also deepening its energy cooperation with the US, securing new oil and gas import agreements that reinforce economic and security ties.

Energy Security: India Locks in LNG Supply from the UAE

With global energy markets facing volatility, India is taking steps to secure long-term energy stability. New multi-billion-dollar LNG agreements with ADNOC will provide India with a steady and reliable supply of natural gas, reducing its exposure to price fluctuations. As India moves toward a cleaner energy future, such partnerships are critical to maintaining energy security while keeping costs in check.

UAE Visa Waiver: A Boon for Indian Travelers

For Indians residing in Singapore, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada, visiting the UAE just became a lot simpler. A new visa waiver, effective February 13, will save Dh750 per person and eliminate lengthy approval processes. This move makes travel to the UAE more accessible and strengthens business and cultural ties between the two countries.

A Gift of Friendship: Trump’s Gesture to Modi

During his visit to India, Donald Trump presented Prime Minister Modi with a personalized book chronicling their long-standing friendship. Beyond the usual diplomatic formalities, this exchange reflects the personal bonds that sometimes shape international relations as much as policies do.

Memory League Champion: India’s New Star of Mental Speed

India is making its mark in unexpected ways, too. Vishvaa Rajakumar, a 20-year-old Indian college student, stunned the world by memorizing 80 random numbers in just 13.5 seconds, winning the Memory League World Championship. His incredible feat underscores India’s growing reputation for mental agility and cognitive excellence on the global stage.

India isn’t just participating in global affairs—it’s shaping them. Whether it’s setting ethical AI standards, securing energy independence, leading in space exploration, or expanding defence partnerships, the country is making bold, strategic moves that solidify its role as a global leader.

As the world takes note of India’s rise, one thing is clear: this journey is just getting started.
