உத்தராகண்ட் மாநிலத்தில் ஸ்ரீநகர் மற்றும் பித்தோரகரில் பொதுக் கூட்டங்களில் பிரதமர் திரு. நரேந்திர மோடி இன்று உரையாற்றினார்.

கூட்டத்தில் பேசிய பிரதமர் திரு. மோடி உத்தராகண்ட் மாநிலம் உருவாக்கப்பட்டதில் திரு. அடல்பிகாரி வாஜ்பாயி பங்களிப்பை நினைவுகூர்ந்தார். ``அடல்ஜி மூன்று மாநிலங்களை - சத்தீஸ்கர், ஜார்க்கண்ட் & உத்தராகண்ட் மாநிலங்களை - உருவாக்கினார். சத்தீஸ்கர் & ஜார்க்கண்ட் மாநிலங்கள் பா.ஜ.க. ஆட்சியில் முன்னேறியுள்ளன'' என்று அவர் கூறினார். ``உத்தராகண்ட்டை ஒரு மாநிலமாக உருவாக்குவதை காங்கிரஸ் ஏன் எதிர்த்தது? இங்குள்ள மக்களுக்கு நல்லதை நினைக்காதவர்கள், எப்படி இங்கே ஆட்சி செய்யலாம்?'' என்று அவர் கேள்வி எழுப்பினார்.

எதிர்க்கட்சிகள் மீது குறைகூறிய பிரதமர், ``சமாஜ்வாதி கட்சி & காங்கிரஸ் கட்சி உத்தராகண்ட் மாநிலத்தை அழித்துவிட்டன. இங்குள்ள மக்களின் விருப்பங்களுடன் அந்தக் கட்சிகள் விளையாடிவிட்டன'' என்று குறிப்பிட்டார்.

உத்தராகண்ட் மாநிலத்தில் சுற்றுலாவுக்கு உள்ள வாய்ப்புகள் பற்றிப் பேசிய பிரதமர் திரு மோடி, ``நாடு முழுவதிலும் இருந்து சுற்றுலாப் பயணிகளை ஈர்க்கும் அம்சங்கள் தேவபூமியில் உள்ளன. சுற்றுலாத் துறை செழிப்புறுவதற்கு இங்கு ஏராளமான வாய்ப்புகள் உள்ளன'' என்று கூறினார்.

இறைவனின் உறைவிடமாக கருதப்படும் நான்கு புனித இடங்களை (சார் தாம்) நல்ல சாலைகள் கொண்டு இணைப்பதற்கு மத்திய அரசு ரூ.12,000 கோடி ஒதுக்கியுள்ளது என்று திரு. மோடி தெரிவித்தார். ``அனைத்து வானிலைகளிலும் நன்றாக இருக்கும் சாலைகள் மூலம் நாட்டின் பிற பகுதிகளுடன் உத்தராகண்ட்டை இணைக்க வேண்டும் என நாங்கள் விரும்புகிறோம். சார் தாமிற்காக நாங்கள் ரூ.12,000 கோடி ஒதுக்கியுள்ளோம்'' என்று அவர் கூறினார்.

ராணுவத்தினருக்கு முந்தைய அரசு எதையும் செய்யவில்லை என்று திரு. மோடி குறிப்பிட்டார். ``முன்னாள் ராணுவத்தினர் எதிர்கொண்ட பிரச்சினைகளைப் பற்றி காங்கிரஸ் கவனித்ததுகூட இல்லை! நாட்டுக்காக போரிட்டவர்களால் அதை எப்படி ஏற்க முடியும்?'' என்று மோடி கேள்வி எழுப்பினார். ``ஒரு பதவியில் இருந்த அனைவருக்கும் ஒரே மாதிரியான ஓய்வூதியம் என்ற திட்டத்தை காங்கிரஸ் கேலிக்குரியதாக்கிவிட்டது. நாங்கள் ஆட்சிப் பொறுப்பேற்ற பிறகுதான், அந்தத் திட்டம் அமல்படுத்தப்பட்டது'' என்று அவர் கூறினார்.

70 ஆண்டுகளாக காங்கிரஸ் கட்சி நாட்டை கொள்ளையடித்துவிட்டது என்று மோடி கூறினார். ஊழலுக்கு எதிராக தாம் தொடர்ந்து போராடி வருவதாகவும் குறிப்பிட்டார். ``ஊழலுக்கு எதிராக வலுவான நடவடிக்கைகளை நாங்கள் தொடங்கினோம். சிலபேர் அதன் பாதிப்பை உணர்ந்திருக்கிறார்கள். நாட்டைக் கொள்ளையடித்தவர்கள் விட்டுவைக்கப்பட மாட்டார்கள்'' என்று பிரதமர் கூறினார். ``ஏழைகளுக்கு நன்மை தரக் கூடிய முடிவுகளை எடுப்பதில் இருந்து பின்வாங்க மாட்டோம். எல்லா சிரமங்களையும் எதிர்கொள்வோம். ஆனால் ஏழைகளின் விருப்பங்களுடன் விளையாட யாரையும் அனுமதிக்க மாட்டோம்'' என்று திரு. மோடி கூறினார்.

உத்தராகண்ட் மக்களுக்கு நல்ல வாழ்க்கையை அளிப்பதற்கு தமது அரசு அர்ப்பணித்துக் கொண்டுள்ளதாக பிரதமர்  திரு. மோடி குறிப்பிட்டார்.  ``ஏழைகளுக்கு சேவை செய்வதை எங்கள் அரசு அர்ப்பணிப்பாக எடுத்துக் கொண்டுள்ளது. ஏழைகளுக்கு நாங்கள் சமையல் எரிவாயு அளித்து வருகிறோம். இதனால் ஏராளமான கிராமப்புற மக்கள் பயன் அடைந்துள்ளனர்'' என்று அவர் தெரிவித்தார்.

உத்தராகண்ட் மாநிலத்துக்கு வளர்ச்சி தேவை; ஆனால் இப்போதுள்ள மாநில அரசு அதற்காக எதுவும் செய்யவில்லை என்று பிரதமர் மோடி கூறினார். ``சிலர் ஹர்டா வரி பற்றி பேசுவதைக் கேட்டு ஆச்சரியமாக உள்ளது! ஆனால் ஏன் வளர்ச்சித் திட்டங்கள் தடுக்கப்படுகின்றன? இது மாநிலத்தின் வளர்ச்சியை மோசமாகப் பாதித்துள்ளது'' என்று அவர் குறிப்பிட்டார்.

நிகழ்ச்சியில் ஏராளமான பா.ஜ.க தொண்டர்களும் தலைவர்களும் கலந்து கொண்டனர்.

Shri Narendra Modi campaigns in Srinagar & Pithoragarh districts of Uttarakhand
Congress has turned ‘Dev Bhoomi’ into “Loot Bhoomi: Shri Modi

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi addressed public rallies in Srinagar and Pithoragarh in Uttarakhand today.

Addressing the rally PM Modi recalled former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s contribution in the formation of Uttarakhand. He said, “Atal ji created three states - Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand & Uttarakhand. Both Chhattisgarh & Jharkhand have progressed under BJP.” He further added, “Why did Congress oppose creation of Uttarakhand as a state? Those who cannot think well of the people here, how can they govern?”

Taking a dig at the opposition parties PM said, “Samajwadi party & Congress ruined Uttarakhand. They played with aspirations of people here.”

Talking about the scope of tourism in Uttarakhand, PM Modi said, “Dev Bhoomi can attract tourists from all over the country. This land has so much potential for tourism sector to flourish.”

Shri Modi also said that Govt at the Centre has allotted Rs.12, 000 crores for connecting Char Dham with better roads. He added, “We want Uttarakhand to be connected with the entire country with all-weather roads. We have allotted Rs.12,000 crore for Char Dham.”

The Prime Minister opined that development of Uttarakhand  and its economy was of utmost importance for his government, “Whenever one thinks of Yoga, he or she recalls Haridwar & Rishikesh. We'll give impetus to the sector by developing proper infrastructure.” He further said, “World is moving towards holistic healthcare. Uttarakhand has much potential to contribute to this sector.”

Shri Modi mentioned that the previous govt did not do anything for our servicemen. The PM said, “Congress did not even note the difficulties our ex-servicemen faced! How can that be accepted for those who fought for the Nation?”  He further added, “The Congress made mockery of One Rank, One Pension scheme. It was only after we assumed office, the scheme was implemented.”

PM Modi stressed Congress has looted the country for 70 years and he is continuously fighting against corruption. “We initiated strong steps against corruption & a few people are feeling its heat. Those who have looted the nation won't be spared,” said the PM. “Would not step back in taking decisions that benefit poor. Will face every difficulty but won't let anyone play with aspirations of poor,” added PM Modi.

PM Modi remarked that his govt is dedicated to giving a better life to the people of Uttarakhand . “Our Government is devoted to serve the poor. We are providing gas connections to poor. This has benefited several rural households,” He said.

PM Modi stressed that Uttarakhand needs development but the current state govt is not doing anything regarding that, “Am surprised that a few speak about Harda tax! But why are development projects stalled? This has badly hit progress of the state,” he added.

Several BJP karyakartas and leaders attended the event.

Text of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's address to the Indian Community in Guyana
November 22, 2024

Your Excellency President Irfan Ali,
Prime Minister Mark Philips,
Vice President Bharrat Jagdeo,
Former President Donald Ramotar,
Members of the Guyanese Cabinet,
Members of the Indo-Guyanese Community,

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Namaskar!

Seetaram !

I am delighted to be with all of you today.First of all, I want to thank President Irfan Ali for joining us.I am deeply touched by the love and affection given to me since my arrival.I thank President Ali for opening the doors of his home to me.

I thank his family for their warmth and kindness. The spirit of hospitality is at the heart of our culture. I could feel that, over the last two days. With President Ali and his grandmother, we also planted a tree. It is part of our initiative, "Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam", that is, "a tree for mother”. It was an emotional moment that I will always remember.

Friends,

I was deeply honoured to receive the ‘Order of Excellence’, the highest national award of Guyana. I thank the people of Guyana for this gesture. This is an honour of 1.4 billion Indians. It is the recognition of the 3 lakh strong Indo-Guyanese community and their contributions to the development of Guyana.

Friends,

I have great memories of visiting your wonderful country over two decades ago. At that time, I held no official position. I came to Guyana as a traveller, full of curiosity. Now, I have returned to this land of many rivers as the Prime Minister of India. A lot of things have changed between then and now. But the love and affection of my Guyanese brothers and sisters remains the same! My experience has reaffirmed - you can take an Indian out of India, but you cannot take India out of an Indian.

Friends,

Today, I visited the India Arrival Monument. It brings to life, the long and difficult journey of your ancestors nearly two centuries ago. They came from different parts of India. They brought with them different cultures, languages and traditions. Over time, they made this new land their home. Today, these languages, stories and traditions are part of the rich culture of Guyana.

I salute the spirit of the Indo-Guyanese community. You fought for freedom and democracy. You have worked to make Guyana one of the fastest growing economies. From humble beginnings you have risen to the top. Shri Cheddi Jagan used to say: "It matters not what a person is born, but who they choose to be.”He also lived these words. The son of a family of labourers, he went on to become a leader of global stature.

President Irfan Ali, Vice President Bharrat Jagdeo, former President Donald Ramotar, they are all Ambassadors of the Indo Guyanese community. Joseph Ruhomon, one of the earliest Indo-Guyanese intellectuals, Ramcharitar Lalla, one of the first Indo-Guyanese poets, Shana Yardan, the renowned woman poet, Many such Indo-Guyanese made an impact on academics and arts, music and medicine.

Friends,

Our commonalities provide a strong foundation to our friendship. Three things, in particular, connect India and Guyana deeply. Culture, cuisine and cricket! Just a couple of weeks ago, I am sure you all celebrated Diwali. And in a few months, when India celebrates Holi, Guyana will celebrate Phagwa.

This year, the Diwali was special as Ram Lalla returned to Ayodhya after 500 years. People in India remember that the holy water and shilas from Guyana were also sent to build the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. Despite being oceans apart, your cultural connection with Mother India is strong.

I could feel this when I visited the Arya Samaj Monument and Saraswati Vidya Niketan School earlier today. Both India and Guyana are proud of our rich and diverse culture. We see diversity as something to be celebrated, not just accommodated. Our countries are showing how cultural diversity is our strength.

Friends,

Wherever people of India go, they take one important thing along with them. The food! The Indo-Guyanese community also has a unique food tradition which has both Indian and Guyanese elements. I am aware that Dhal Puri is popular here! The seven-curry meal that I had at President Ali’s home was delicious. It will remain a fond memory for me.

Friends,

The love for cricket also binds our nations strongly. It is not just a sport. It is a way of life, deeply embedded in our national identity. The Providence National Cricket Stadium in Guyana stands as a symbol of our friendship.

Kanhai, Kalicharan, Chanderpaul are all well-known names in India. Clive Lloyd and his team have been a favourite of many generations. Young players from this region also have a huge fan base in India. Some of these great cricketers are here with us today. Many of our cricket fans enjoyed the T-20 World Cup that you hosted this year.

Your cheers for the ‘Team in Blue’ at their match in Guyana could be heard even back home in India!

Friends,

This morning, I had the honour of addressing the Guyanese Parliament. Coming from the Mother of Democracy, I felt the spiritual connect with one of the most vibrant democracies in the Caribbean region. We have a shared history that binds us together. Common struggle against colonial rule, love for democratic values, And, respect for diversity.

We have a shared future that we want to create. Aspirations for growth and development, Commitment towards economy and ecology, And, belief in a just and inclusive world order.

Friends,

I know the people of Guyana are well-wishers of India. You would be closely watching the progress being made in India. India’s journey over the past decade has been one of scale, speed and sustainability.

In just 10 years, India has grown from the tenth largest economy to the fifth largest. And, soon, we will become the third-largest. Our youth have made us the third largest start-up ecosystem in the world. India is a global hub for e-commerce, AI, fintech, agriculture, technology and more.

We have reached Mars and the Moon. From highways to i-ways, airways to railways, we are building state of art infrastructure. We have a strong service sector. Now, we are also becoming stronger in manufacturing. India has become the second largest mobile manufacturer in the world.

Friends,

India’s growth has not only been inspirational but also inclusive. Our digital public infrastructure is empowering the poor. We opened over 500 million bank accounts for the people. We connected these bank accounts with digital identity and mobiles. Due to this, people receive assistance directly in their bank accounts. Ayushman Bharat is the world’s largest free health insurance scheme. It is benefiting over 500 million people.

We have built over 30 million homes for those in need. In just one decade, we have lifted 250 million people out of poverty. Even among the poor, our initiatives have benefited women the most. Millions of women are becoming grassroots entrepreneurs, generating jobs and opportunities.

Friends,

While all this massive growth was happening, we also focused on sustainability. In just a decade, our solar energy capacity grew 30-fold ! Can you imagine ?We have moved towards green mobility, with 20 percent ethanol blending in petrol.

At the international level too, we have played a central role in many initiatives to combat climate change. The International Solar Alliance, The Global Biofuels Alliance, The Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure, Many of these initiatives have a special focus on empowering the Global South.

We have also championed the International Big Cat Alliance. Guyana, with its majestic Jaguars, also stands to benefit from this.

Friends,

Last year, we had hosted President Irfaan Ali as the Chief Guest of the Pravasi Bhartiya Divas. We also received Prime Minister Mark Phillips and Vice President Bharrat Jagdeo in India. Together, we have worked to strengthen bilateral cooperation in many areas.

Today, we have agreed to widen the scope of our collaboration -from energy to enterprise,Ayurveda to agriculture, infrastructure to innovation, healthcare to human resources, anddata to development. Our partnership also holds significant value for the wider region. The second India-CARICOM summit held yesterday is testament to the same.

As members of the United Nations, we both believe in reformed multilateralism. As developing countries, we understand the power of the Global South. We seek strategic autonomy and support inclusive development. We prioritize sustainable development and climate justice. And, we continue to call for dialogue and diplomacy to address global crises.

Friends,

I always call our diaspora the Rashtradoots. An Ambassador is a Rajdoot, but for me you are all Rashtradoots. They are Ambassadors of Indian culture and values. It is said that no worldly pleasure can compare to the comfort of a mother’s lap.

You, the Indo-Guyanese community, are doubly blessed. You have Guyana as your motherland and Bharat Mata as your ancestral land. Today, when India is a land of opportunities, each one of you can play a bigger role in connecting our two countries.

Friends,

Bharat Ko Janiye Quiz has been launched. I call upon you to participate. Also encourage your friends from Guyana. It will be a good opportunity to understand India, its values, culture and diversity.

Friends,

Next year, from 13 January to 26 February, Maha Kumbh will be held at Prayagraj. I invite you to attend this gathering with families and friends. You can travel to Basti or Gonda, from where many of you came. You can also visit the Ram Temple at Ayodhya. There is another invite.

It is for the Pravasi Bharatiya Divas that will be held in Bhubaneshwar in January. If you come, you can also take the blessings of Mahaprabhu Jagannath in Puri. Now with so many events and invitations, I hope to see many of you in India soon. Once again, thank you all for the love and affection you have shown me.

Thank you.
Thank you very much.

And special thanks to my friend Ali. Thanks a lot.
