‘Kisan Sangat Abhinandan Samaroh’ in Hanumangarh (Rajasthan)

The Bharatiya Janata Party National President Shri JP Nadda addressed a massive ‘Kisan Sangat Abhinandan Samaroh’ organised by the Sikh community at Hanumangarh in Rajasthan on 24 February, 2023. Speaking to the gathering, the BJP National President said Modi government at the Centre has taken big initiatives for the welfare of farmers’ and to strengthen the agriculture sector with several schemes for increasing farmers’ income, soil health and crop insurance.

The ‘Kisan Sangat Abhinandan Samaroh’ was organised by the local Sikh community of Rajasthan. Shri Nadda said while the farmers were cheated in the past in the name of crop insurance, more than 11 crore agriculturists were at present associated with the Kisan Samman Nidhi and getting a financial assistance of Rs. 6,000 a year.

Sikh Gurus worked to keep the country united

Shri Nadda stated, “Sikh Gurus also worked to keep the country united by giving their martyrdom. We can never forget it. But all political parties have always done politics with the Sikh community, except Bharatiya Janata Party. PM Shri Narendra Modi has a special attention for the Sikh community. He knows their pain.”

PM Modi works for Sikh community

Shri Nadda further said, the Narendra Modi government constructed and launched the Kartarpur Corridor and financial help has been provided to the families of the 1984 riot victims.

“It has been announced to further develop the historic Gurdwara Sahib of the country through tourism. There can be no leader other than PM Shri Narendra Modi who works so deeply for the Sikh community”, the BJP National President added.

This is change

The BJP National President further said that today, the budget of Railways has increased almost ten times. At one time, the budget for railways in Rajasthan used to be only 682 crore, this year it has increased to 9,532 crore. About 1.72 lakh villages of the country have been connected with Optical Fiber, in which Rajasthan also has about 8770 villages. This is change. This is the story of India’s development.

Congress cheated the farmers

Shri Nadda further stated, “Today, India has changed. Today, the country is moving forward. But it is sad that the farmers of Rajasthan were cheated in the last elections in the name of loan waiver.”

Shri Nadda said it is very sad to see in Rajasthan that Congress has made tall claims of loan waiver for farmers before the elections, but it has not happened till date. Where did those promises go? Why did the Congress government cheat the farmers in Rajasthan?

On the other hand, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has transferred about two and a half lakh crore rupees to more than 11 crore farmer families, primarily the small and marginal only under PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana.

When elections come, political parties made tall claims in Rajasthan that they will do this; they will do that, but remember they do nothing. That’s why give rest to these people and give BJP an opportunity to serve.
