Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, “Today is dedicated to uplifting the last person in society.” This includes the poor and the deprived. On the auspicious occasion of Baba Saheb’s birth anniversary, the sacred land of Shri Krishna has been connected. It is directly linked to the land of Shri Rama. This marks a historic moment. Several major development projects for the people of Haryana have also been launched. He said that every policy, scheme, and decision of the Central and Haryana Governments is inspired by Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar. The Central Government has set a clear goal to transform the lives of the poor, the exploited, and the underprivileged. He added that continuous and accelerated development is the government’s core mantra. In line with this, a new air service from Haryana to Ayodhya Dham has been launched.

Before 2014, there were only 74 airports and now this number crossed  150

Prime Minister Sh Narendra Modi said that in before 2014, India had only 74 airports. Today, that number has crossed 150. In addition, around 90 aerodromes have been connected under the UDAN Yojana, and air services are now operational on more than 600 routes across the country, offering affordable air travel to people. The Prime Minister further stated that airline companies have placed orders for 2,000 new aircraft. As the number of airplanes increases, so will employment opportunities, not only in aviation but also in the aircraft maintenance sector. He said the newly inaugurated Hisar airport will help realize the dreams of Haryana’s youth. Referring to his earlier commitment, the Prime Minister said, “I had promised that even those wearing ‘hawai chappals’ would be able to fly in airplanes—and today,  that promise is being fulfilled across the nation.” In the past 11 years, crores of Indians have experienced air travel for the first time. He said that while the government is focused on enhancing connectivity, it is equally committed to ensuring social welfare and justice for the poor fulfilling the vision of Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar and the aspirations of the Constitution’s framers.

BJP Government honours Baba Saheb and Ch Charan Singh with Bharat Ratna

The Prime Minister paid tribute to Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar and farmer-leader Chaudhary Charan Singh. PM said that while previous Congress governments overlooked such towering personalities, the BJP government has honoured them with the Bharat Ratna, giving them the recognition they truly deserve. He accused the Congress of using the Constitution merely as a vote-bank tool, claiming that the party systematically ignored the rights granted to SC, ST, and OBC communities, thus keeping the poor and marginalized away from their entitlements. He stressed that the true spirit of the Constitution calls for a Uniform Civil Code, which Congress never attempted to implement. In contrast, the BJP government in Uttarakhand has taken concrete steps toward implementing the Uniform Civil Code.

Empowering the deprived with a life of dignity

The Prime Minister pointed out that for nearly 70 years after independence, only 16% of the population had access to tap water, most of whom belonged to SC, ST, and OBC communities. In the initial 6–7 years, the BJP government has provided tap water connections to over 12 crore rural households, raising coverage in villages to 80%. He reaffirmed the government’s resolve to ensure tap water reaches every home. He also highlighted that a lack of basic sanitation disproportionately impacted these communities. By constructing over 11 crore toilets, the government has significantly improved their quality of life and dignity. Moreover, he said that after recent amendments to the Waqf Act, Waqf Boards can no longer claim ownership of tribal lands in any part of the country. On this occasion, Union Minister of State for Civil Aviation Murlidhar Mohol, Haryana Civil Aviation Minister Vipul Goyal, Social Justice and Empowerment Minister Krishan Kumar Bedi, Public Works Minister Ranbir Gangwa, MP Dharambir Singh, Rajya Sabha MPs Kiran Choudhary and Subhash Barala, BJP State President Mohanlal Badauli along with other ministers and MLAs of the state were present.
