Highlighting his government's efficiency, Modi said, "When the INDI Alliance was in power in the center, what was the situation?... Packages used to be announced for the farmers of Vidarbha from Delhi, but they were looted in the middle. Poor, farmers and the Adivasis did not get anything. Today, I pressed one button, and Rs. 21,000 crores of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi reached the accounts of crores of farmers. This is Modi's guarantee..."
Looking ahead to the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, PM Modi invoked the popular slogan "Abki Baar 400 Paar," suggesting widespread support for the ruling government. He acknowledged the blessings received from the people of Vidarbha and expressed confidence in securing a strong mandate in the upcoming elections.
PM Modi reassured the crowd of ongoing efforts to complete stalled irrigation schemes initiated during the Congress regime. He reiterated his commitment to national development, promising transformative changes that would positively impact the lives of citizens across the country.
