Modi in Jharkhand Highlights: Jharkhand farmers getting double benefits due to our policies, says PM in Gumla

"What did the Congress and its allies do on Ram Janmabhoomi? How were political games played? How was society divided? These people kept the topic of Ram Janmabhoomi hanging for the sake of their vote bank. It was not allowed to be decided" says PM Modi in Gumla

"When Atal Bihari Vajpayee was the Prime Minister, he not only created this state but for the first time after independence, a separate ministry was formed for the tribal community and a separate budget was also sanctioned": PM Modi in Jharkhand's Gumla

"Our government resolves to provide water to every household by 2024 in the country. Just as the work of constructing toilets in every house has been successfully completed, similarly, water will also be provided to every household. Our tribal society will hugely benefit from this mission," says PM Modi

"The result of the double engine of BJP governments in Delhi and Ranchi is that today, the farmers of Jharkhand are getting double benefits. Every farmer family here gets direct help under PM-KISAN, along with additional benefits of Chief Minister Krishi Aashirwad Yojana," says PM Modi in Gumla

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addresses his second poll rally in Jharkhand's Gumla, says, "If Jharkhand had any other government, it would have been impossible to develop the state because the party would be doing politics and not working along with the centre to develop the state."

PM Modi asserted that the BJP governments at the Centre and the state would continue to protect Jharkhand's 'jal', jungle and 'zameen' (water, forest and land). Condemning last week's Naxal violence in the poll-bound state, he also paid tribute to the four policemen who were killed in the attack. He insisted that the Jharkhand government had worked day and night to end corruption over the last five years. "The BJP governments at the Centre and the state will continue to protect Jharkhand's 'jal', 'jungle' and 'zameen' (water, forest and land), no matter what the opposition says. The state has made efforts to curb Naxalism in the state and will continue to fight against the menace," he said. (PTI)

PM Modi congratulated Raghubar Das-led government for completing its five-year term, a first in Jharkhand since it attained statehood. "The BJP govt has provided good governance in Jharkhand over the past five years. That is why, for the first time in the state's history, a chief minister completed his five-year term," he added.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that the matter of dispute over the birthplace of Lord Ram was stalled by the Congress. "Had they wanted, a solution could've been found much earlier. But they didn't do that, they cared about their vote bank. Such thinking of the Congress affected the country," he said.

PM Modi said Naxalism was an issue due to political instability. "Governments used to get toppled here, they didn't want to serve people but simply enjoy the power... How could there have been proper roads, industries and electricity, given the situation which was here," he added.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that BJP has made an effort to free Jharkhand of Naxals and create a peaceful environment here.
