He said that Modi government has also given a fertiliser subsidy of over Rs. 55,000 crore to more than 62 lakh farmers in Punjab in the last six years (up to January 2024). Besides this, inauguration of 29 National Highway projects, establishment of India's first Technology and Innovation Support Center (TISC) in Punjab, Delhi-Amritsar-Katra Expressway, 100-bed PGI Satellite Centre at Ferozepur, declaration of 26th December as the Veer Bal Diwas, Under the PRASHAD scheme, 46 projects at Rs. 1629.17 crore have been sanctioned, including the development of Karuna Sagar Valmiki Sthal at Amritsar and Chamkaur Sahib at Rupar, etc.
He asserted that the last ten years under the Modi government have witnessed a paradigm shift in Punjab's development trajectory. The multifaceted approach encompassing infrastructural, agricultural, and cultural initiatives reflects a commitment to holistic growth.
Kavinder appealed to the people of Punjab to support and vote for the Modi Government's vision of a "Viksit Bharat" (Developed India) in ensuing Lok Sabha polls. He emphasized the importance of voting for a secular party like the BJP to ensure that all communities can live together in peace and harmony.
"I urge the people of Punjab to extend overwhelming support to BJP candidates in the Lok Sabha elections. Your vote will be a step towards a more prosperous and united India where every citizen, irrespective of their background, can thrive together," Gupta stated.
