PM Modi lauds UP govt for state’s law and order situation

[ad_1]
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday lauded the Uttar Pradesh government, saying the state is today recognised for its law and order situation as well as development-oriented stance — a far cry from the previous image of the mafia and crushed law and order situation.
He said this while virtually addressing the Uttar Pradesh employment mela.
PM Modi said that the “double engine” government in the state had led “to new opportunities for employment, business and investment”.
In the mela, appointment letters were provided to direct recruits for sub-inspectors in Uttar Pradesh Police and equivalent posts in Nagrik Police, Platoon Commanders and Fire Department Second Officers.
“When you come to this service, you get a ‘Danda’ from the police, but God has given you a heart too. That’s why you have to be sensitive and make the system sensitive,” the Prime Minister told the new recruits.
PM Modi’s comments incidentally come just days after a 46-year-old woman and her 22-year-old daughter were killed during an anti-encroachment drive at Madauli village in Kanpur Dehat district of Uttar Pradesh.
Subsequently, the police registered an FIR against 39 people, including a sub-divisional magistrate (SDM), lekhpal (revenue officer) and the station house officer of the local police station.
Meanwhile, PM Modi during the occasion, also underlined the training aspect, emphasizing that it will improve sensitivity while modern areas like cyber crimes and forensic science will promote smart policing.

The Prime Minister stressed that new recruits will have the responsibility of both security and giving direction to society.
“You can be a reflection of both service and strength for the people,” Modi said.

BJP ‘Mahila Morcha’ to reach out to women beneficiaries of govt schemes

[ad_1]
New Delhi: With an eye on the 2024 Lok Sabha polls, the BJP’s ‘Mahila Morcha’ will launch a major outreach exercise from Monday by contacting women beneficiaries of various welfare schemes of the central government nationwide.
As part of efforts to connect with women, party members have targeted one crore of selfies with them in a year.
BJP’s Mahila Morcha head Vanathi Srinivasan said the party’s women’s wing will also launch an award ceremony in March in the name of late BJP veteran Sushma Swaraj to honour in every district 10 women who have made significant contributions in different fields.
She said the selfie exercise is part of the party’s efforts to connect with women.
Members of the party’s women wing will approach women voters in every district and tell them about the benefits of various government schemes, ranging from housing to cooking gas, toilets and opening bank accounts.
If these women have benefitted from any of these schemes, then party members will request them for a selfie with them, Srinivasan said, adding the entire exercise will be done through the NaMo app.
The programme will also help popularise these schemes among others, she said.
Over 25 crore women are believed to have benefited from the Jan Dhan scheme alone, under which bank accounts without any mandatory minimum balance are opened while the numbers of beneficiaries from other schemes also run into several crores.

Beneficiaries of various government schemes have been a targeted voting segment for the BJP, and their reach and popularity are believed to have played a role in the party’s electoral successes.

Our govt has accorded top priority to development of Karnataka: PM Modi

[ad_1]
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Saturday that the development of Karnataka has been a top priority of the ruling BJP whereas previous dispensations used to divert its money to outside the state.
He also said his government has worked for India’s progress by taking along traditions as well as technology.
“There was a time when people after forming government in Karnataka would take its money outside. Today, the country’s money and resources are honestly directed towards Karnataka’s development,” he said after inaugurating the “Barisu Kannada Dim Dimava” cultural festival here.
The prime minister said the state annually got Rs 11,000 crore between 2009 and 2014 when the Congress-led UPA was in power, while it has risen to Rs 30,000 crore under his government.
While the state received a total of only Rs 4,000 crore for railway projects in the five years preceding 2014, when Modi took the office, the amount in the latest budget alone is Rs 7,000 crore.
While nearly Rs 6,000 crore was spent on building highways in the state in the five years before he came to power, it is now Rs 5,000 crore annually for the last nine years, Modi said.
The face of Karnataka is changing rapidly due to the fast pace of development, he said.
Assembly polls are expected to be held in the state in May this year, and the BJP has been working overtime to retain power in the southern state.

The prime minister said his government has worked for India’s progress by taking along traditions as well as technology.
If it has rejuvenated ancient temples and cultural centres, then India has also become world leader in digital payment, he said.
His government has brought back stolen idols and artefacts while also drawing record FDI in the country, Modi said.
He also lauded Karnataka’s contribution in nation-building and paid tributes to its leading figures in different walks of life.
Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai, several other BJP leaders, including Union ministers, and religious figures were present in the function.
Bommai said the state is rich in natural resources, culture and technology and will play a big role in realising Modi’s resolve of making India a USD 5 trillion economy.
Karnataka in the coming years will contribute a share of USD 1 trillion to the national economy, he said.
He also invited Modi to the “Akhil Bharatiya Vishwa Kannada Sahitya Sammelana” to be held next year in Davanagere district.
