Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a roadshow in Vadodara district, Gujarat. On 26 May, as part of his two-day visit to Gujarat, it was his first official trip after “Operation Sindoor.” This visit will entail the Prime Minister laying foundation stones and inaugurating development projects.

Speaking at a public rally in Gujarat’s Dahod, PM Modi recalled that he took the oath as the country’s Prime Minister on the same date in 2014. “Today is May 26. On the same date in 2014, I took the oath as the Prime Minister for the first time… First, the people of Gujarat blessed me, then crores of Indians blessed me,” he said.

While on the roadshow, flower petals were thrown on him, and they waved the Indian flag. On Monday, the Prime Minister inaugurated and laid the foundation stone for development projects costing around Rs 24,000 crore in Dahod, Gujarat.

PM Modi inaugurated a Locomotive Manufacturing plant of the Indian Railways in Dahod, which will produce electric locomotives of 9000 HP for domestic purposes and for export. The locomotives will help in increasing the freight loading capacity of Indian Railways. He also flagged off the first electric locomotive manufactured from the plant. The Prime Minister is on a two-day visit to Gujarat from today.

Addressing a public rally in Dahod, PM Modi says, “… Jab koi hamari behno ke sindoor ko mitayega, toh uska bhi mitna tay ho jata hai… Atank phailane walon ne sapno mein bhi socha nahi hoga Modi se muqabala kitna mushkil hota hai…” “After what the terrorists did in Jammu & Kashmir’s Pahalgam, could India sit silently? Could Modi sit silently? When someone removes the Sindoor from our sisters’ and mothers’ foreheads, then their removal is also confirmed. Operation Sindoor is not just a military action, it is an expression of the values and emotions of Indians… Those who spread terrorism may have never even imagined in their dreams how tough a rivalry with Modi can be…”

Addressing a public rally in Dahod, PM Modi says, “Fathers were shot in front of their children (in Pahalgam). The blood boils when we look at those pictures. Terrorists challenged 140 crore Indians, so Modi did that for what you gave him the responsibility of being a Prime Minister… I gave free hand to the security forces. Our bravehearts did what the world had not seen for many decades… We searched nine terror bases. Confirmed their location. 6 tareekh raat ko, 22 minute mein humne unko mitti mein mila diya…”
