The three-day BJP National Council meeting is underway in Kerala’s Kozhikode amidst demands for tough action against Pakistan after Uri terror attack, in which 18 Army soldiers were killed.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived . He greeted the gathering in Malayalam and later attacked Pakistan. He stated that…..
Wherever terrorism is happening in Asia, the blame is on one country. Not just India, every country in Asia believes this. One country is exporting terror everywhere.
But there is one country in Asia that is working towards thwarting that vision. It is doing all it can to ensure Asia is bloodied, it is bruised by violence, falls prey to terror.
We’ve been hearing it for a while – 21st century is Asia’s century. And Asia has all it takes to achieve that.
India is moving forward with one mantra- Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas and the whole world recognises India to be the world’s fastest growing major economy. Be it fisherman or labourer, the government is working to empower all of them.
Kerala has all the capability to become India’s top state. The BJP and the Indian government is ready to do all it takes to make this happen.
I want to assure Kerala BJP workers, the service you have given, the injustices you have endured, the sacrifices you have made will not go in vain. They will bear fruit and the BJP will herald progress in Kerala.
Before coming to power, I had the opportunity to work for the Sangh for long. But in Kerala, we have not been in power. Yet workers here have stood here undaunted, undeterred. They are inspiration for all BJP workers everywhere.
This comes from the thinking of Mahatma Gandhi and Deen Dayal Upadhyay. Our directive is based on their ideology.
When elected members of the NDA chose me as their leader and when I gave the first speech on the floor of the Parliament, I had said this government is dedicated to the poor.
In the last century, India’s political life was influenced by three people, Mahatma Gandhi, Deen Dayal Upadhyaya and Ram Manohar Lohia.
Today we are meeting on the eve of the birth anniversary of a stalwart of Indian politics.
Political pundits of that era must be surprised today. That in 50 years this party has become the No. 1 party in the country.
50 years ago, Pandit Deen Dayal Upadhyay was made the chief of Bhartiya Jan Sangh. Take out newspapers from 50 years ago, I don’t know if any news, any photo of that programme was published or not, I don’t think any discussion had taken place.
Today I have got the chance to visit this land once again, but I am seeing a lot of differences this time. From the helipad to this stage, not just a human chain, I saw a human wall. So many people have gathered.
When I had the chance to visit Gulf countries and when a leader of a country visits another country, it is usual to meet their leaders. But I requested especially that I also wanted to meet the people who have come from India and are working hard. And whoever I met, I only heard praise for people from Kerala, their hard work, their discipline. I felt very proud.
The people, the sages and saints, its traditions – simplicity, hard work – that’s why people everywhere look at people from Kerala with respect.
When you think of Kerala, you think of God’s Own Country, it has an impression of purity and holiness.
