CM Dhami Praises PM Modi's Initiatives

On Friday, Uttarakhand's Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami acknowledged Prime Minister Narendra Modi's anti-poverty initiatives, stating that over 250 million individuals have been lifted out of poverty during his tenure. Addressing a gathering, CM Dhami remarked, "During his time in office, PM Modi has successfully helped 25 crore people escape poverty. Under Congress rule, corruption became a fundamental aspect of the system. The Modi administration has implemented the Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) system to eliminate this corruption; DBT ensures that funds reach beneficiaries' accounts without any leakage... The politics of Congress was based on appeasement and was limited to vote banks."

He noted that the Prime Minister's leadership continuously inspires and energizes everyone to strengthen their commitment to nation-building.

A Historic Phase for India

The Chief Minister added that under the Prime Minister's guidance, the vision of a 'Developed India' has gained new momentum, while the mantra of 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas' has become the foundation of public trust across the nation.
