#NationalSportsDay is a day to celebrate the remarkable achievements of all those exemplary sportspersons who have represented India in various sports and made our nation proud. Their tenacity and determination are outstanding.
Today, on #NationalSportsDay, we pay tributes to Major Dhyan Chand, whose magic with the hockey stick can never be forgotten.
This is also a day to laud the outstanding support given by the families, coaches and support staff towards the success of our talented athletes.
Government of India is making numerous efforts to popularise sports and support sporting talent in India. At the same time, I urge everyone to make sports and fitness exercises a part of their daily routine. There are many benefits of doing so. May everyone be happy and healthy!

A heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has sent their blessings and good wishes as I complete 23 years as the head of a government. It was on October 7, 2001, that I took on the responsibility of serving as the Chief Minister of Gujarat. It was the greatness of my Party, @BJP4India, to task a humble Karyakarta like me with the responsibility of heading the state administration.
When I assumed office as CM, Gujarat was facing numerous challenges - the 2001 Kutch Earthquake, before that a Super Cyclone, a massive drought, and the legacy of many decades of Congress misrule like loot, communalism and casteism. Powered by Jana Shakti, we rebuilt Gujarat and propelled it to new heights of progress, even in a sector like agriculture, for which the state was not traditionally known.
During my 13 years as Chief Minister, Gujarat emerged as a shining example of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas,’ ensuring prosperity for all sections of society. In 2014, the people of India blessed my Party with a record mandate, thus enabling me to serve as Prime Minister. This was a historic moment, as it marked the first time in 30 years that a party secured a full majority.
अब से कुछ देर में हरियाणा विधानसभा चुनाव का प्रचार अभियान समाप्त हो जाएगा। बीते कुछ दिनों में मैंने पूरे राज्य की यात्रा की है। मैंने लोगों का जो उत्साह देखा है, उसे देखकर मुझे ये पक्का विश्वास है कि हरियाणा के लोग भाजपा को फिर अपना आशीर्वाद देने वाले हैं। हरियाणा के देशभक्त लोग, कांग्रेस की विभाजनकारी और नकारात्मक राजनीति को कभी स्वीकार नहीं करेंगे।
पिछले 10 वर्षों में भाजपा ने हरियाणा के लोगों के जीवन को समृद्ध बनाने के लिए लगातार काम किया है। हमने सभी वर्गों के कल्याण को प्राथमिकता दी है। किसान हों, युवा हों, महिलाएं हों, गांव और शहरों का विकास हो, हमने कोई कोर कसर बाकी नहीं छोड़ी। हम हरियाणा को कांग्रेस के घोटालों और दंगों वाले दौर से बाहर निकालकर लाए हैं।
हरियाणा की जनता-जनार्दन जानती है कि कांग्रेस का मतलब भ्रष्टाचार, जातिवाद, सांप्रदायिकता और भाई-भतीजावाद की गारंटी है। बापू-बेटे की राजनीति का मूल उद्देश्य सिर्फ स्वार्थ है। कांग्रेस यानि दलाल और दामाद का सिंडिकेट...। लोग आज हिमाचल से कर्नाटक तक कांग्रेस सरकारों की विफलता भी देख रहे हैं। कांग्रेस की नीतियां, लोगों को तबाह करती हैं इसलिए हरियाणा के लोग कांग्रेस को बिल्कुल नहीं चाहते हैं।
Today is a day to pay homage to all those great men and women who resisted the Emergency.
The #DarkDaysOfEmergency remind us of how the Congress Party subverted basic freedoms and trampled over the Constitution of India which every Indian respects greatly.
Just to cling on to power, the then Congress Government disregarded every democratic principle and made the nation into a jail. Any person who disagreed with the Congress was tortured and harassed. Socially regressive policies were unleashed to target the weakest sections.
Those who imposed the Emergency have no right to profess their love for our Constitution. These are the same people who have imposed Article 356 on innumerable occasions, got a Bill to destroy press freedom, destroyed federalism and violated every aspect of the Constitution.
A heartfelt thank you to all those who exercised their franchise. Their active participation is the cornerstone of our democracy. Their commitment and dedication ensures that the democratic spirit thrives in our nation.
I would also like to specially appreciate India’s Nari Shakti and Yuva Shakti. Their strong presence at the polls is a very encouraging sign.
I can say with confidence that the people of India have voted in record numbers to reelect the NDA government. They have seen our track record and the manner in which our work has brought about a qualitative change in the lives of the poor, marginalised and downtrodden.
At the same time, they have seen how the reforms in India have propelled India to being the fifth largest global economy. Every scheme of ours has reached the intended beneficiaries without any bias or leakage.
The opportunistic INDI Alliance failed to strike a chord with the voters. They are casteist, communal and corrupt. This alliance, aimed to protect a handful of dynasties, failed to present a futuristic vision for the nation. Through the campaign, they only enhanced their expertise on one thing- Modi bashing. Such regressive politics has been rejected by the people.
मुंबईमध्ये अतिशय भव्य अशा रोड शो मध्ये सहभागी झालो. आम्हाला आशीर्वाद द्यायला आलेल्या प्रत्येकाचे विशेषतः महिला आणि बालकांचे आम्ही आभारी आहोत. मुंबईसोबत आमच्या पक्षाचा अतिशय घनिष्ठ संबंध आहे. याच शहरात 1980 साली आमच्या पक्षाची स्थापना झाली होती. त्यामुळे ही बाब आमच्या बांधिलकीला अधिकच बळकट करते.
उत्तम पायाभूत सुविधा आणि अधिक चांगल्या प्रकारचे 'सुलभ राहणीमान' या गोष्टी आमच्या मुंबईविषयीच्या दृष्टिकोनाच्या केंद्रस्थानी आहेत. त्यामुळेच या महानगरातल्या लोकांसाठी मोठ्या प्रमाणावर विकासकामे सुरू झाली आहेत, ज्यामुळे भारताच्या वृद्धीला लक्षणीय ऊर्जा मिळत आहे.
या शहराला जोडणाऱ्या संपर्कव्यवस्थेत सुधारणा करण्यासाठी आणि शहरातील कोंडी कमी करण्यासाठी अलीकडेच अटल सेतूचे राष्ट्रार्पण करण्यात आले. या प्रकल्पाची अगणित लोकांनी प्रशंसा केलेली मी पाहिली आहे. समाजमाध्यमांचे विश्व सर्वत्र या सेतूची अनेक छायाचित्रे आणि रील्सनी भरून गेले होते, ज्यामधून याची लोकप्रियता दिसून आली.
Took part in a massive roadshow in Mumbai. Grateful to everyone who came to bless us, especially women and children. Our Party’s connection with Mumbai is deep. It was in this city that our Party was founded in 1980. This makes our commitment to serve it even stronger.
At the core of our vision for Mumbai is – better infrastructure and more ‘Ease of Living.’ We have ensured that a large number of development works have been actualised for the people of this great city, which is significantly powering India’s growth.
To improve connectivity and decongest the city, the Atal Setu was recently dedicated to the nation. I have seen countless people appreciate this project. The world of social media is filled with several pictures and reels about it as well, thus indicating its popularity.
