Recalling his tenure as Chief Minister of Gujarat, Modi said, “I launched a big campaign to bring Narmada water to different parts of Gujarat, but the Congress and some NGOs adopted various tactics to stop it. The Congress never wants to reduce water problems. The water of our rivers used to flow across borders, but our farmers did not benefit. Instead of finding solutions, the Congress continued to promote water disputes between states.”Modi also highlighted the BJP’s popularity, saying, “The nation has given the BJP the opportunity to serve for the third consecutive time in the Lok Sabha. This has not happened in India in the last 60 years. Today, the BJP’s double-engine governments are symbols of good governance. Whatever resolution the BJP takes, it makes honest efforts to fulfil it. Today, the people of the country are saying that the BJP is the guarantee of good governance.”Praising the Bhajanlal Sharma-led Rajasthan government, Modi said, “In the last one year, Bhajanlal ji and his entire team have worked very hard to give new momentum and direction to Rajasthan’s development. This first year has laid a strong foundation for the years to come. Bhairon Singh Shekhawat laid the foundation of development in Rajasthan, Vasundhara Raje took it forward, and now Bhajanlal Sharma’s government is enriching good governance. The impact can be seen within a year.”He emphasised the Central government’s efforts to improve rural economies and promote solar energy in Rajasthan, stating, “Rajasthan has immense potential in solar energy and can become the leading state in the sector.”Highlighting infrastructure developments, Modi said, “The Jamnagar-Amritsar Economic Corridor will provide direct connectivity to Kandla for northern India. Rajasthan’s transport sector will benefit, big warehouses will be built, and new job opportunities will be created.”
