GUWAHATI: Addressing a fervent crowd at a poll rally in Nalbari’s Borkura on Wednesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi began his speech saying, “Moi xamuh Axom baxiloi Rongali Bihu aaru Axomia nobo borxor xubheesha gyapon korilu (I extend my wishes to the people of Assam for Rongali Bihu and Assamese New Year).”

During his approximately 20-minute speech, the Prime Minister highlighted various schemes outlined in the recently unveiled Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) manifesto, “Sankalp Yatra.”

Highlighting the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna, Prime Minister Modi reiterated the BJP’s commitment to providing an additional 3 crore housing arrangements for the poor over the next five years, ensuring distribution without discrimination.

“The BJP has released its ‘Sankalp Patra’ during Bohag Bihu, and the promises made in the manifesto will benefit every citizen of India without discrimination,” he asserted.

Addressing the healthcare needs of senior citizens, Prime Minister Modi announced the party’s decision to provide health benefits to individuals above 70 years old.

Under the Ayushman Bharat Scheme, senior citizens will receive benefits up to Rs 5 lakh, irrespective of their financial situation.

“Let Modi take care of your aging parents, grandfathers and other senior citizens in the family. From now on, their health concerns are Modi’s concern. Under the Ayushman Yojna, we will provide benefits of up to Rs 5 lakh, irrespective of their financial situation,” he said.

Additionally, the Prime Minister also outlined initiatives to provide solar panels at reduced prices to lower electricity bills and to promote the adoption of electric vehicles, thereby reducing travel costs.

Highlighting the empowerment of self-help groups, Prime Minister Modi announced plans to transform five crore women into “lakhpati baidews” (women entrepreneurs), highlighting the inclusive nature of the party’s initiatives.

“The Northeast itself is a testament to Modi’s ‘guarantees. Your dreams are my commitment. Every moment is dedicated to you and the nation,” he affirmed.

Prime Minister Modi also addressed minority communities, particularly women from the Muslim community, highlighting the government’s decision to abolish triple talaq, a move he claimed has benefited thousands of women in Assam.

Slamming the Congress, Prime Minister Modi remarked on the Congress party’s “historical exploitation” of the Northeast for political gains, asserting that the region is now liberated from such mistreatment.

“In the past, the Northeast was ensnared in the loot-driven grasp of the Congress. However, today, the Northeast has broken free from those chains and is witnessing Sabke Saath Sabka Bikas,” he added.
