Addressing the crowd, the Prime Minister stated that his government is bringing new development initiatives to the forefront. There was a period when there was no development in this section of the country, he explained. "I am running the country with full speed to fulfil the promise of developed India by 2047," he stated.
Taking a potshot at opposition, PM Modi stated: "What used to happen in election season earlier? People in previous governments used to make announcements to deceive people...When I analyse, I find that announcements were made 30-35 years ago. They used to put up a plaque before elections and disappear after that, the leaders disappeared too...Today, the country can see that "Modi doosri mitti ka insaan hai.""
"The foundation stones we laid in 2019, were not for elections. You can see that we have inaugurated it too. Even in 2024, nobody should see it through the glasses of elections. This is the campaign of my journey for development," he added.

If someone should be credited with this, it is our PM Narendra Modi... The basic infrastructure in the aviation sector has been improved massively, it is evident from the fact that in 2014 we had 74 airports, but now we have 149 airports in our country..."
