India's Prime Minister, Modi, assures nation's courage in the face of nuclear threats.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi celebrated his 75th birthday with a flurry of announcements and engagements, showcasing his commitment to various causes.
In a significant move, PM Modi launched the 'Swasth Nari Sashakt Parivar' and the 8th 'Rashtriya Poshan Maah' campaigns on his birthday. These initiatives aim to enhance women's health and empowerment, a key priority for the Prime Minister.
During the festive season, PM Modi emphasised the importance of buying Swadeshi (Indian-made) goods. He asserted that such purchases not only generate employment for fellow citizens but also contribute to building a developed India by 2047.
The Prime Minister also highlighted the success of his government's efforts in promoting women's financial well-being. He claimed that nearly 20 million women have become Lakhpati Didis (millionaire women) through various government initiatives. Moreover, he stated that millions of women are setting up new industries by taking Mudra loans.
PM Modi also laid the foundation stone for the Pradhan Mantri Mega Integrated Textile Region and Apparel (PM MITRA) Park in Madhya Pradesh's Dhar district. This project is expected to boost the textile industry and create employment opportunities.
In a bid to reduce maternal and infant mortality, PM Modi announced the beginning of the 8th National Nutrition Month. He stressed the importance of early disease detection and screening for women as part of the health campaign.
The Prime Minister also encouraged women to attend health camps and take care of their health. He underscored the significance of women's health in the overall development of the nation.
On the international front, PM Modi spoke on the phone with Russian President Vladimir Putin and European Union chief Ursula von der Leyen, a day after he spoke to US President Donald Trump. These conversations underscored India's growing role in global politics.
The PM also mentioned the 77th anniversary of Operation Polo, which brought the erstwhile princely Hyderabad state into the Indian Union in 1948. He credited former Union home minister, Vallabhbhai Patel, for the victory in Operation Polo.
In a viral video, a Pakistani terrorist explained how the Indian armed forces entered their hideout and attacked them. However, no specific details about Operation Sindoor, a joint military exercise involving Indian and Russian forces, were available in the sources. The PM claimed that Indian soldiers brought Pakistan to its knees during Operation Sindoor.
Operation Sindoor, featuring Russian-origin platforms like the S-400 air defense system and BrahMos missile, underscored India's growing military capabilities and strategic partnerships.
As PM Modi turns 75, his commitment to nation-building, women's empowerment, and health initiatives continues to be at the forefront of his agenda. His birthday serves as a reminder of his dedication to these causes and his vision for a developed India.
