PM Modi Bihar Visit: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while discussing infiltrators in the country, stated that it is a major problem. These infiltrators are encroaching upon your employment and land, and depriving you of your rights. We have decided to launch a campaign against them. Some people within the country are opposing this. We must also be wary of such supporters within the nation. He took a jibe at the Congress and RJD, stating that these parties, for the sake of appeasement, want to deprive the people of Bihar of their rights and give them to infiltrators. But we will not let that happen. To tackle this threat, we will launch a demographic mission. This mission will commence its work very soon.
Discussing the Constitution (130th Amendment) Bill, Prime Minister Modi said that if the fight against corruption is to be taken to its conclusion, then no one should be beyond the scope of action.
He said that a government employee is suspended after a few hours of detention; his life is ruined. Then how can a Chief Minister, Minister, or Prime Minister enjoy power while being in jail? He said that we have seen government orders being issued even with files signed from jail. If this remains the attitude of the leaders, how can the fight against corruption be fought? My government is making a law, after which bail will have to be taken within 30 days of arrest. If bail is not granted, the person will have to leave their post on the 31st day. However, the RJD, Congress, and Left are opposing this. The Prime Minister, taking a jibe at them, said that those who commit sins are the ones who hide their sins from others.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while discussing Naxalites, took a jibe at Lalu. The Prime Minister said that Bihar was once gripped by Lal Aatank. Due to Maoists, it was difficult to travel anywhere after evening. During Lalu's rule, people did not venture out of their homes in the evening due to fear. The entire Bihar was pushed into darkness. Lack of education and employment forced people to migrate. The RJD and its allies consider Biharis only as their vote bank. They did not care about the honour and dignity of the poor.
PM Modi praised Chief Minister Nitish Kumar profusely. He said that it was because of Nitish Kumar that the recruitment of teachers became transparent. He said that Nitish Kumar has launched a campaign to provide government jobs. The central government's new scheme will also help ensure that people of Bihar get employment here and do not have to migrate. But now, there is discussion of development. Employment opportunities are being created. Mentioning Operation Sindur, Modi said that Pakistan was carrying out drone attacks and launching missiles on us. India, on the other hand, was shattering Pakistan's missiles in mid-air. Not a single missile from Pakistan caused any damage to us. Operation Sindur has drawn a new line in India's defence policy.
