Talking to the media during his visit to Patna on the afternoon of 2nd November 2013, Shri Narendra Modi said that he has come to Patna to share the pain of families of those who lost their lives during the attack on the Hunkaar Rally and that all BJP Karyakartas firmly stand by the family of those who lost their lives. 

Shri Modi saluted the people of Bihar for the courage they showed in the wake of the unfortunate blasts during the time of the Hunkaar Rally. He said, “At the rally on the 27th the courage that the people of Bihar have shown is extraordinary and is unheard of. Having been in public life for long, I know how even in meetings of 2000-3000 people there would be chaos if a rumor went off that a cow has come but the people of Bihar showed patience and great strength that is very special. There were bombs going on, there was blood, people were being taken to the hospital but still there was no stampede.” Shri Modi added, “It was as if they were attached from the heart. This is a very big thing and it shows the strength of the people of Bihar. They kept peace in the midst of bombs.”

He also wished the people of India and Indians across the world a Happy Diwali and extended his greetings to the people of Bihar on the occasion of Chhath Puja. Shri Modi said that the entire nation can learn a lot from the Chhath Puja, which signifies purity.

Earlier, Shri Modi met families of those who lost their lives. He spoke to two families over the phone because they could not land in the villages due to fog. Former Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar Shri Sushil Modi accompanied Shri Modi to the places.

PM Modi to inaugurate ICA Global Cooperative Conference 2024 on 25th November
November 24, 2024
PM to launch UN International Year of Cooperatives 2025
Theme of the conference, "Cooperatives Build Prosperity for All," aligns with the Indian Government’s vision of “Sahkar Se Samriddhi”

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will inaugurate ICA Global Cooperative Conference 2024 and launch the UN International Year of Cooperatives 2025 on 25th November at around 3 PM at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi.

ICA Global Cooperative Conference and ICA General Assembly is being organised in India for the first time in the 130 year long history of International Cooperative Alliance (ICA), the premier body for the Global Cooperative movement. The Global Conference, hosted by Indian Farmers Fertiliser Cooperative Limited (IFFCO), in collaboration with ICA and Government of India, and Indian Cooperatives AMUL and KRIBHCO will be held from 25th to 30th November.

The theme of the conference, "Cooperatives Build Prosperity for All," aligns with the Indian Government’s vision of “Sahkar Se Samriddhi” (Prosperity through Cooperation). The event will feature discussions, panel sessions, and workshops, addressing the challenges and opportunities faced by cooperatives worldwide in achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in areas such as poverty alleviation, gender equality, and sustainable economic growth.

Prime Minister will launch the UN International Year of Cooperatives 2025, which will focus on the theme, “Cooperatives Build a Better World,” underscoring the transformative role cooperatives play in promoting social inclusion, economic empowerment, and sustainable development. The UN SDGs recognize cooperatives as crucial drivers of sustainable development, particularly in reducing inequality, promoting decent work, and alleviating poverty. The year 2025 will be a global initiative aimed at showcasing the power of cooperative enterprises in addressing the world’s most pressing challenges.

Prime Minister will also launch a commemorative postal stamp, symbolising India’s commitment to the cooperative movement. The stamp showcases a lotus, symbolising peace, strength, resilience, and growth, reflecting the cooperative values of sustainability and community development. The five petals of the lotus represent the five elements of nature (Panchatatva), highlighting cooperatives' commitment to environmental, social, and economic sustainability. The design also incorporates sectors like agriculture, dairy, fisheries, consumer cooperatives, and housing, with a drone symbolising the role of modern technology in agriculture.

Hon’ble Prime Minister of Bhutan His Excellency Dasho Tshering Tobgay and Hon’ble Deputy Prime Minister of Fiji His Excellency Manoa Kamikamica and around 3,000 delegates from over 100 countries will also be present.
