Unhone gandagi ko hi zindagi maan liya’: PM Modi fires at Opposition on 10 years of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan
Here are 9 key points from his address
- "Today, on Gandhi Jayanti, I took part in Swachhata-related activities with my young friends. I urge you all to also take part in some or the other such activity during the day and, at the same time, keep strengthening the Swachh Bharat Mission," Modi tweeted, urging citizens to contribute to the cleanliness movement.
- “Today, we mark #10YearsOfSwachhBharat, a momentous collective effort to make India Swachh and ensure improved sanitation facilities. I salute all those who have worked to make this movement a success,” he said, expressing gratitude for the widespread support behind the mission.
- In a strong critique of previous
- administrations, Modi remarked, "They (previous governments) never considered dirtiness and lack of toilets as national issues. He accused past leaders of ignoring sanitation concerns, forcing people to live in unhygienic conditions.
- “When I gave the call for Swachh Bharat from the ramparts of the Red Fort, I was mocked. I am still mocked,” Modi said, recalling the scepticism he faced when launching the cleanliness drive. Despite the criticism, he said, he remained steadfast in his commitment to the cause.
- “The first job of a Prime Minister is to make the lives of the common man easy,” he said, highlighting his focus on improving the everyday lives of citizens, including addressing basic sanitation needs like toilets and sanitary pads
- The prime minister noted how poor sanitation was especially harmful to underprivileged groups, stating, “This was against human respect; it was an insult to especially the Dalits, backward classes, and the tribal communities.” The Swachh Bharat Mission has aimed to restore dignity to these groups by improving access to clean toilets and sanitation.

JMM serving jhooth ki jalebi’: PM Modi lashes out at CM Hemant Soren-led party during Jharkhand rally
Prime Minister Narendra Modi accused the ruling party of Jharkhand, JMM, of putting people's identity, culture, tradition at stake ‘for vote banks politics’. The prime minister also accused Congress of ‘wanting’ to snatch SC, ST, OBC reservation. “I assure you no one can do it”, PM Modi said in Hazaribagh.
“JMM-led coalition serving 'jhooth ki jalebi' to people. The coalition is insensitive, caused deaths of aspirants during recruitment drive of excise constables”, PM Modi alleged during his rally in Hazaribagh on Wednesday.
Addressing Parivartan Mahasabha in Jharkhand's Hazaribagh, the prime minister accused the JMM government of corruption. Refreing to transfer-posting industry, PM Modi said thousands of transfers have taken place in the state in the last two weeks and JMM has made crores of rupees on the pretext of this.
"I have heard that now when they (Congress-JMM) are about to leave, they have increased both the speed and scale of corruption. Thousands of transfers have taken place in Jharkhand in the last two weeks. Transfer-posting industry... this is a very big industry. JMM has made crores of rupees on the pretext of this. But now this game is not going to last long... soon the government will change in Jharkhand and every penny of this loot will be accounted for," PM Modi said.
On one hand, the central government is working hard day and night for the development of Jharkhand, and on the other hand, Jharkhand government is hellbent on bringing the state down from the development track. Every single of Jharkhand knows that the biggest roadblock in Jharkhand's development is the Congress-JMM-RJD alliance," PM Modi said.

The character of Congress is anti-Dalit, deprived and tribal. They made such policies and ran the government in such a way that SC, ST, and OBC people could not progress. That is why Congress has always opposed reservations for SC, ST, and OBC, Modi said.
"Even today Congress is talking about ending reservations. By snatching the reservation of SC, ST, and OBC, Congress wants to give it to its special vote bank. The Parivartan Yatra that has been completed today will prove to be the beginning of a new dawn for Jharkhand. We have only one slogan – Roti, Beti and Maati. For this, we will bring about change in Jharkhand."
