Expansion
From red tape to red carpet. From optimism to guarantees of better returns. Unprecedented change from status quo and positive environment. From social justice to secularism. From Ayodhya-Kashi to Abu Dhabi… Chaudhary Charan Singh… Lohia and Jai Prakash to Congress. Through these symbols and signs, Prime Minister Narendra Modi prepared the role of Mission 400 for the general elections.
PM Modi’s speech at the state government’s Arth Kumbh at the Indira Gandhi Pratishthan was expected to instill hope among investors as well as his youth, women, poor and farmer voters and party workers. PM Modi not only praised the work of UP CM Yogi Adityanath’s government, but also told how UP is changing. He said, earlier there was red tape culture in UP, it has turned into red carpet. The Prime Minister also gave the message of Modi’s guarantee for India’s development not only in the country but in the world. Said that, there is an unprecedented positive atmosphere regarding India in the world.
At the Women, Youth and Farmers Center
BJP has set a target of winning all 80 parliamentary seats in the state. This goal cannot be achieved without women, youth and farmers. Modi gave the message of upliftment of women by stating the target of connecting ten crore women with self-help groups and making one crore Lakhpati Didis in a year. He also mentioned Modi’s guarantee to artisans through ODOP scheme for micro, small and medium industries and PM Vishwakarma scheme. Modi gave the message of helping farmers by promoting natural farming and coarse grains. He said, the more the farmer and the soil will benefit, the more the business will also benefit.
Message also through Ayodhya, Kashi
PM Modi also did not forget to fan cultural nationalism through Ayodhya and Kashi. Modi said that now every person wants to come to Varanasi and Ayodhya. Kumbh Mela is also going to be organized in Prayagraj in 2025. This will also be important for the economy of UP.
A move to give fuel to politics also took place
Before the Lok Sabha elections, PM Modi also made a move to give impetus to politics among the entrepreneurs. Modi, through former Prime Minister Chaudhary Charan Singh and Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar, put Congress, SP and BSP in the dock among the backward and Dalits of the state. He linked the award of Bharat Ratna to Chaudhary Charan Singh with the respect of crores of farmers and laborers of the country. He said that Congress tried to bargain with Chaudhary Charan Singh. Congress considers only one family to have the right on Bharat Ratna, hence Baba Saheb was not given Bharat Ratna for decades. Congress does not want to respect Dalits, poor, backward, farmers and laborers. Modi said that all the parties doing politics in UP did not listen to Chaudhary Saheb.
Explained social justice and true secularism to the opposition.
PM Modi targeted the opposition parties advocating social justice in the name of caste census. He also explained to them the meaning of true secularism and social justice. Modi termed the loans given on Modi’s guarantee to 75 percent of the street vendors benefited under PM Swanidhi Yojana to backward, Dalit and tribal families as social justice of Lohia and Jayaprakash Narayan. Modi said that lakhs of beneficiaries of UP have been connected to the schemes near their homes. This is true secularism.
Meet future challenges with flying hopes
The PM said that he also gave a message to the youth on the basis of flight of hopes and challenges of the future. Said that, seven years ago no one could have thought of investment and job environment in UP. But in seven years, investment worth lakhs of crores is coming on the ground. The factories coming up in UP are going to change the picture here. This will increase employment opportunities. Modi’s guarantee is that the government will not rest until every beneficiary gets his/her due rights including free ration, free treatment, permanent house, electricity, water, gas connection.
