UP tonsuring row: Tension in Etawah, stone pelting on cops, 20 detained
ETAWAH/LUCKNOW: Days after the alleged caste-based tonsuring of a Bhagwat Katha preacher and his aide in Etawah's Dandarpur village, tensions escalated on Thursday as members of Yadav groups staged protests demanding the arrest of all accused and withdrawal of the case registered against the victims. According to police, large crowds began gathering near the Agra-Kanpur highway and at the village in the Bakewar area in the afternoon. Purported videos showed unidentified persons pelting police personnel with stones even as the latter brandished firearms in the air to warn the protesters on a narrow village road. In Lucknow, UP minister Jaiveer Singh accused Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav of giving the tonsuring incident a casteist spin and blamed him for stoking the violence. Etawah Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Brijesh Kumar Srivastava said, Information was received via social media that some groups were preparing to protest against the incident that occurred in Dandarpur village three days ago. Accordingly, police deployment was made in the town, on the highway and in the village to ensure law and order. Around 1:30 pm, a sizeable crowd started gathering on the Agra-Kanpur highway. While most were convinced to disperse, a few tried to enter Dandarpur village forcibly, which created a situation that could have disrupted peace, he said. SSP Srivastava confirmed that 19 individuals were detained, and 13 vehicles were seized. Necessary legal action is being taken under relevant sections. Law and order are under control, and the situation is normal, he added. Earlier in the day, hundreds of members from Yadav groups reached Bakewar police station to gherao it in protest against alleged police action against the victims and to demand the arrest of the accused. SP (Rural) Sreesh Chandra told reporters that police attempted to stop the advancing crowd, but a heated exchange followed. When protesters continued pushing forward, police used lathis to disperse them. The crowd reportedly retaliated by throwing stones at police personnel, damaging the windshield of a police jeep. Some protesters fled towards the Agra-Kanpur highway. The incident that triggered the unrest took place on the night of June 22-23 in the village. Two Bhagwat Katha preachers, Mukut Mani Yadav and his aide Sant Singh Yadav, were allegedly tonsured and humiliated by upper-caste men after it was found that they belonged to the Yadav caste. A video of the incident, which went viral on social media and was also shared by the SP chief, showed the accused purportedly saying, You are getting punished for coming to the village of Brahmins. The victims alleged they were interrogated about their caste, forced to show identification and subjected to humiliation. I was tortured all night. My head was shaved, and they sprinkled urine on me, saying it was to purify me, said Sant Singh Yadav. Following the video's circulation, four accused - Ashish Tiwari, Uttam Kumar Awasthi, Nikki Awasthi and Manu Dubey - all residents of the village, were arrested and booked. Akhilesh condemned the incident, calling it a gross violation of constitutional values and warned of a large-scale movement if action was not taken within three days. In response to Etawah violence, Singh in the evening emphasised the administration's swift response and affirmed the government's commitment to take strict measures moving forward. Based on the initial probe, four individuals were arrested, followed by the detention of 15 more people involved in the violence perpetrated by local miscreants, the minister said. The incident appears to be the result of a well-planned conspiracy, and the government is determined to uncover the truth and take strict action against those responsible, Singh said. He assured that anyone taking the law into their own hands, regardless of caste or community, will not be spared. Accusing Akhilesh of giving the incident a casteist angle, the minister said the former UP CM, without verifying the facts, made reckless statements which incited violence. It has always been the SP's strategy to divide society along caste and class lines for political gain. This is condemnable and unacceptable, Singh said. He added that the BJP respects Sanatan culture, not casteism.

Panel to study reliance of students on coaching, fairness of entrance exams
NEW DELHI: The Ministry of Education has constituted a nine-member panel to review concerns related to private coaching institutions, rise of dummy schools, and the effectiveness and fairness of entrance examinations, officials said on Friday. The committee headed by Secretary (Higher Education) Vineet Joshi is tasked with suggesting measures to reduce the dependency of students on coaching centres for their higher education needs. The committee will examine the gaps in the current schooling system that contribute to students reliance on coaching centres, particularly the limited focus on critical thinking, logical reasoning, analytical skills and innovation and the prevalence of rote learning practices, a senior Ministry of Education official told news agency PTI . The committee will also look into the mushrooming of dummy schools. Thousands of students preparing for engineering and medical entrance examinations prefer to take admission in dummy schools so that they can focus solely on competitive exam preparations. Aspirants often opt for dummy schools to benefit from state-specific admission quotas for medical and engineering colleges. For instance, students who complete their senior secondary education in Delhi qualify for the Delhi state quota in medical colleges, providing a strong incentive to enroll in dummy schools in the capital. The reasons behind the emergence of dummy schools will be examined and the panel will study their role in encouraging full-time coaching at the cost of formal schooling and suggest ways to mitigate them, the official said. The role and impact of formative assessments at school and higher education levels will be assessed and how their absence affects students conceptual understanding and preparedness for competitive examinations. The panel will also analyse the rising demand for quality higher education, limited availability of seats in premier institutions and how the imbalance drives students towards coaching institutes, he told PTI. Evaluating the awareness levels among students and parents regarding multiple career pathways and the impact of this lack of awareness on the over-dependence on a few elite institutions; assessing the availability and effectiveness of career counselling services in schools and colleges and suggesting measures for strengthening career guidance frameworks, are among other terms of reference of the committee. Other members of the panel include the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) chairman; joint secretaries from school education and higher education departments; representatives of IIT-Madras, NIT-Trichy, IIT-Kanpur and NCERT; and principals of schools (one each from Kendriya Vidyalaya, Navodaya Vidyalaya and a private school). The move comes following complaints received by the Centre about rising cases of student suicides, accidents, lack of facilities in coaching institutes.

Man assaulted during robbery bid at Chennai railway station dies, two held
CHENNAI: Two men were arrested on Thursday for the death of a man who was allegedly assaulted by them at the Chennai Central Railway Station on June 2. The police said the deceased, who is yet to be identified, was caught when he tried to steal their bag when they were sleeping on platform 7 at the railway station. The man, who was undergoing treatment at a government hospital, died on June 5. His body has been sent for postmortem. The arrested, Suraj (26) and Pradeep (23), both hailing from Kanpur in Uttar Pradesh, were arrested by the Chennai Central Government Railway Police (GRP) on charges of culpable homicide not amounting to murder. According to the police, the accused were employed on contract as cleaning staff on Southern Railway express trains. Around 3 am on June 2, the man tried to steal one of their bags, the police said. However, the duo woke up and assaulted him, following which he fled the spot. At around 8 am, the local police were alerted by passersby about a man lying unconscious on Wall Tax Road. The police sent him to a government hospital for treatment and started an inquiry. CCTV footage from the locality revealed the assault at the railway station. The suspects were identified and traced by GRP. As the two duo were on duty aboard an express train, they were arrested only on Thursday. Based on inquiries, it was found that their intention was not to kill the person, so murder charges have not been invoked. The deceased person is yet to be identified, a senior GRP officer said.

From Heritage To High-Tech: CM Yogi Pushes For Development Of Mathura And Kanpur As Model Cities
UP BJPs wait for a new state chief continues
LUCKNOW: Even after five months past the partys expected timeline, the wait for the new president of the Uttar Pradesh unit of the ruling BJP continues. The delay is a hot topic in the political corridors of the state. Experts feel that the BJP is taking time to pick a leader who can lead the party not only through the upcoming panchayat elections but also the significant 2027 battle. A section of leaders believes that the state will get a new chief only after the election of a new national BJP president. The term of the current UP BJP chief, Bhupendra Singh Chaudhary, a Jat leader from western UP ended in January 2023, concurrent with BJP national president JP Naddas term. Chaudhary was appointed UP BJP chief on August 29, 2022. At the time, he was the Panchayati Raj Minister in Yogi Adityanaths cabinet. The appointment was seen as an attempt to reach out to the influential Jat community, which had spearheaded the year-long farmers protest ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. While CM Yogi Adityanath hails from eastern UP, the party then sought regional balance by appointing Chaudhary. Incidentally, since Naddas term has been extended, Chaudharys term has also been extended. Notably, organisational elections at the lower levels have been completed in the state. On March 16, new district presidents were appointed in 70 of the 98 districts as per the partys configuration. Since then, however, no step has been taken to elect a new state chief. Although deliberations on appointing a new UP BJP chief began in January, and National General Secretary BL Santosh had said a new state president would be announced by January 15, party workers had expected a final decision by thenor at least by January 30. Five months have passed, yet theres still no development or indication from the party regarding the impending election. In the absence of concrete steps, speculation abounds over probable names for the post. OBC leaders like Jal Shakti Minister Swatantra Dev Singh, Animal Husbandry Minister Dharampal Singh, Rajya Sabha member Baburam Nishad, and MLC Ashok Kataria are in the race. From the Scheduled Castes category, former minister Ram Shankar Katheria and MLC Vidyasagar Sonkar are being discussed. A few Brahmin community names, former Basti MP Harish Dwivedi, Rajya Sabha member Dr. Dinesh Sharma, MLA Srikant Sharma, and Higher Education Minister Yogendra Upadhyay are also prominent in discussions. Political experts note that the BJP, known for its strategic planning, faces the crucial challenge of the upcoming panchayat elections. The appointment of the state president will be made with that in mind. The party is busy understanding the mathematics of the panchayat polls, says Prof. A.K. Mishra, a prominent political scientist. Party insiders say the delay in announcing a new state chief is also hindering changes in the regional presidencies, four out of the six regions (Awadh, Kashi, Braj, West Gorakhpur, and Kanpur). Complaints against one or two regional presidents have surfaced. These leaders are uncertain about their political futures and are conducting party programs and campaigns half-heartedly. Their entire focus is on either becoming regional president again or finding a spot in the new state team, says a senior BJP leader. Moreover, regional presidents have not been allowed to form their own teams, having to work with 2021s team. Insiders say central leadership received complaints about irregularities in forming regional and district teams, leading to an unofficial ban on announcing executive committees. At the same time, the state presidents of BJPs Mahila Morcha, Yuva Morcha, OBC Morcha, Kisan Morcha, SC Morcha, ST Morcha, and Minority Morcha have been working for about four years, no changes were made during Chaudharys tenure. Once a new BJP state president is appointed, the state presidents of all morchas will also be replaced.

LUCKNOW: Striking a personal chord, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has written a letter of appreciation to Shivanya Tiwari,11, a Class VII student from Kanpur, praising her for a portrait she made depicting Operation Sindoor and presented to the PM during his May 30 pubic rally in the city. The PM was about to address the rally when he spotted Shivanya holding the painting high, drawing PMs attention, and he asked his security to get it to him. While getting the painting the PM had promised Shivanya to write a letter to her which he fulfilled by writing her the letter dated June 6, 2025. In the letter, the PM said: I received a painting made by you (Shivanya Tiwari) during a public meeting in Kanpur, recently. I am overwhelmed by the way you have expressed your emotions on canvas regarding Operation Sindoor. The PM further wrote that the bravery of the countrys armed forces during Operation Sindoor had filled every Indian with pride. This operation against terrorism is a message from a new India one that is courageous, self-respecting, and resolute, he wrote. Underscoring the significance of art, PM Modi wrote in his letter to Shivanya: Painting is a powerful medium to express our emotions and give form to our imagination. Through your artwork, you have presented a vision of a strong and transforming India. He added: The country is moving forward with a firm resolve to build a developed India during this Amrit Kaal. I am confident that young citizens like you will play a vital role in achieving this goal. Wishing the girl a bright future, the PM ended the letter by writing: May you achieve great success in life and continue contributing to the progress of the country and society through your art. Shivanya, daughter of Ashish Tiwari, studies in Virendra Swaroop Education Centre in Panki locality of Kanpur. She has painting as a hobby since her childhood. Shivanya, while reacting to the PMs correspondence to her, said that she had never thought that the PM would spot my painting and take it form me. When I came to know about PMs visit to Kanpur, I painted on the theme of Operation Sindoor and also put a sketch of PM in it. I wrote Welcome to Kanpur in the painting, she said. Shivanya shared that she got the PMs letter through e-mail on Monday, June 9, 2025.

BHOPAL: A 14-year-old tribal girl who was kidnapped by a 22-year-old man from western Madhya Pradeshs Jhabua district was rescued from a village 900 km away in Uttar Pradeshs Kanpur Dehat district following a 16-hour police operation. Two years back, 20-year-old Govind Naik, who hails from Auraiya district of central UP, came to Ranapur town of western MPs Jhabua district, along with a group of street-side garment sellers and started living and trading there. He slowly developed a friendship with a 12-year-old tribal girl who lived in the same locality, where Govind lived on rent. Over a period of two years, the bond between Govind and the tribal girl deepened and finally he took her away on May 31. By the time, the girls family realized that it was Govind who had taken her away, the duo had already reached Indore (150 km from Jhabua) and boarded a bus to Gwalior. The matter was reported by the girls family to the Jhabua district police in the afternoon, after which two teams were formed and the hunt for the kidnapped girl started at around 4 pm and a case of kidnapping registered at Ranapur police station. We formed two police teams and started probing the matter. Knowing well that we would question his key contacts, Govind kept on telling them over phone that he was bound for Gujarat, despite being actually on the way to his home state UP. He kept telling his contacts that he was moving from Dahod to Godhra in Gujarat. Using sophisticated scientific investigation tools, the police tracked his live location in MPs Guna district, which confirmed that he was headed to UP, a senior Jhabua district police officer told TNIE on Saturday. Both teams of the Jhabua police left to nab Govind and rescue the girl at 4 pm, but they were almost six-and-a-half hours behind him. After alighting from the bus, Govind took the girl in another hired vehicle to adjoining UP, but instead of going to his home district, he went to Kanpur Dehat district, in the same central UP region, where his sister lives. While the hunt for the kidnapped girl went on, unmindful that his location was being continuously updated by the Jhabua district police to their two teams, Govind continued to tell his contacts about travelling further into Gujarat for some important work. He ultimately reached his sisters village in Kanpur Dehat on May 31 and stayed there that night. With his location getting stabilized at one point, the Jhabua police from MP contacted their counterparts in central UPs Kanpur Dehat who rescued the girl from the kidnappers sisters village. Govind, however, managed to escape, but was nabbed a few hours later from a neighbouring village, ultimately ending a successful police operation which started at 4 pm on May 31 and ended at around 8 am on June 1. The accused kept on telling his contacts that he was headed to Gujarat, just to hoodwink us, but the police turned much smarter and using the latest scientific and digital technology, kept on tracking his movement. It was subsequently with the help of UP police that the kidnapped girl was successfully rescued and the kidnapper too tracked and arrested, Madhya Pradeshs Jhabua district police superintendent Padam Vilochan Shukla said. The rescued girl was subsequently brought back safely to her home in Ranapur (Jhabua) and reunited with her family. The arrested kidnapper is being questioned by police to ascertain whether he has a criminal past or is linked to any organized gang. The cops are also probing the possibility of him being part of a girl trafficking racket.

NCERT files 29 FIRs in one year over printing of pirated textbooks
NEW DELHI: The National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) has seized more than 5 lakh copies of pirated NCERT textbooks. A record 29 FIRs have been registered against printers, warehouse owners and retailers of these books. Printing paper and machinery worth over Rs 20 crore were also seized in the last 14 months from UP and Haryana.

Congress leader Bhupesh Baghel seeks answers from govt on Pahalgam, Operation Sindoor 'ceasefire'
JABALPUR: Congress leader Bhupesh Baghel has said Prime Minister Narendra Modi should explain why there was no security for tourists in Pahalgam, where terrorists attacked them on April 22, and did the government agree to a ceasefire with Pakistan under pressure from the United States. Following the horrific Pahalgam attack which claimed 26 lives, India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 , striking at terror infrastructure in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and Pakistan. The neighbouring country retaliated with drones and missiles but failed to cause harm. The two nations announced cessation of hostilities on May 10. Speaking at the opposition Congress' 'Jai Hind' rally here on Saturday, former Chhattisgarh chief minister Baghel accused the BJP of politicising Operation Sindoor and asserted the country's armed forces do not belong to any party. The Congress' event coincided with the PM's mega women empowerment event in Bhopal, 300 km from here. Tell people why there was no security arrangement in Pahalgam. Where are those four terrorists? Was the ceasefire done under pressure from the US and who took the decision on the ceasefire, officers or the government? Baghel said addressing the gathering. The Congress leader's comments came in the backdrop of US President Donald Trump repeatedly asserting that he got India and Pakistan to end hostilities triggered by Operation Sindoor. India has stuck to its stand that the US had no role to play. During a rally in Uttar Pradesh's Kanpur on Friday, PM Modi said Pakistan egged for a ceasefire during Operation Sindoor. The Congress is holding 'Jai Hind Sabhas' across the country to salute the armed forces, while the ruling BJP has been carrying out 'Tiranga Yatras' to celebrate the success of Operation Sindoor. BJP is politicising Operation Sindoor. Bharatiya Janata Party activists will distribute vermilion, Baghel alleged, adding that a woman applies sindoor for her husband's well-being and it is her husband who applies sindoor to her forehead. Notably, the BJP has denied that it was planning to distribute sindoor. Our armed forces belong to the whole country and its people, and not just to any political party or government. We all are extremely proud of the bravery and valour of our Army, Baghel said, asserting that doubts are being raised about the BJP government's decisions and policies. He also lauded former PM Indira Gandhi for emphatically defeating Pakistan in the 1971 war, which led to the creation of Bangladesh. 'When will PM break his silence?' Congress on Trump's truce claims The former Chhattisgarh CM said Modi should apologise for objectionable comments made by Madhya Pradesh minister Vijay Shah and state deputy chief minister Jagdish Devda following Operation Sindoor. The PM must set an example by ensuring they are sacked from the MP government, Baghel said. Shah made an objectionable remark about army officer Colonel Sofiya Qureshi during his speech at a public function at Mhow near Indore on May 12. An FIR has been registered in the matter and both the Supreme Court and MP High Court have severely admonished Shah. On May 16, Devda claimed armed forces and soldiers of the country were atmastak (bowing down with their heads at the feet) in front of PM Modi for giving a befitting reply to terrorists and Pakistan. Baghel also sought to point out similarities between the Pahalgam terror attack and the infamous May 2013 Jhiram valley attack in Chhattisgarh in which Naxalites killed 27 persons, including some prominent Congress leaders. I remember May 25, 2013. Naxalites attacked Congress leaders, killing former Union minister Vidya Charan Shukla among others after asking their names, he said. In Pahalgam, terrorists asked victims their religion. Another common thing in both incidents was there was no security at the respective spots, he added. What is the relation between the two incidents? How they happened calls for pondering, Baghel said. Speaking at the rally, senior Congress leader Digvijaya Singh said those who played no role in India's freedom struggle and remained slaves of the British are today claiming that armed forces are bowing at the feet of PM Modi.

Operation Sindoor not over yet: PM Modi outlines Indias bold anti-terror strategy
KANPUR: Sending a powerful message on Indias anti-terror strategy, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said the country would respond decisively to every act of terrorism, regardless of where the threat originates from, as Operation Sindoor was still ongoing. The Prime Minister was addressing a public rally in Kanpur after inaugurating and laying the foundation for 15 development projects related to power, transport, Jal Shakti and other sectors, worth Rs 47,700 crore, during his two-hour visit. He asserted that India would no longer be bullied by nuclear threats from its neighbours, and outlined three principles guiding the countrys counter-terrorism approach: 1. India will give a befitting reply to every terrorist attack, with the timing, method, and conditions determined solely by the armed forces. 2. India would no longer be intimidated by nuclear threats, nor make decisions based on such intimidation. 3. India would treat the masterminds of terror and the governments that support them with equal resolve. PM Modi said his Kanpur visit was originally scheduled for April 24 but was cancelled due to the terrorist attack in Pahalgam. He warned that Pakistans tactics would no longer succeed, declaring, If I say it in Kanpuriya style, the enemy will be decimated wherever he is. Delivering a strong message on national security, the Prime Minister stated, India has made its position clear, every terrorist attack will be avenged. Our armed forces will decide the timing and method of the response, he asserted. Rejecting the threat of nuclear retaliation as a deterrent, Modi said, Todays India does not fear the atomic bomb, nor will it base its decisions on such threats. He added that India would no longer accept the excuse of state and non-state actors behind terrorism and that the masterminds and the regimes supporting them would be treated alike. Referring to Indias strong military response through Operation Sindoor, the Prime Minister said the entire world had witnessed the anger of the countrys daughters and sisters through the operation. Our forces entered deep into Pakistan and destroyed terrorist hideouts. The Indian Armys valour forced the Pakistani military to come on its knees and plead for a ceasefire. He added that Operation Sindoor had not ended, it had only paused. Earlier in the day, PM Modi had an emotional interaction with the bereaved family of Shubham Dwivedi at the Kanpur airport. He met Shubhams widow Aishanya, mother Seema, and father Sanjay Dwivedi. Focusing on the importance of self-reliance in the defence sector, Modi said that Indias weapons and missiles had caused devastation in the enemy country. He emphasised that achieving self-reliance was crucial not only for the economy but also for national pride. He recalled that India once heavily depended on other countries for its military needs. That is why we launched the Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan, to free the country from this dependence, he said. The Prime Minister credited Indias growing defence capabilities to the resolve of a self-reliant nation, which played a key role in the success of recent military operations. He claimed that Uttar Pradesh was playing a vital role in making the country self-reliant in the defence sector. The PM highlighted that the UP Defence Corridor was attracting major investment, Kanpurs ordnance factories had been given commercial status, Amethis Korba ordnance factory was manufacturing AK-203 rifles, and BrahMos missiles, used effectively during Operation Sindoor, were set to be manufactured in Lucknow. UP is going to be the front runner in defence export in the days to come, said the PM. In a veiled attack on previous governments, he said they had ignored the states industrial needs. The family-driven governments never thought of giving priority to industrial development and pushed the state out of the race of developing states, he said. Highlighting Uttar Pradeshs transformation into a logistics and industrial hub, Modi said, The state already has an international airport, and with this years budget, weve launched Mission Manufacturing to further boost local business and industry. He also spoke about reforms to the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector, saying it had earlier been misrepresented in ways that discouraged entrepreneurs. We have changed that perception and expanded support through this budget. In the last 10 years, weve taken several major decisions to empower small businesses, he said. Earlier, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath welcomed the Prime Minister, extending the gratitude of the state. The way Indias new defence system has given a befitting reply to the enemy is commendable, he said. He called it the outcome of the strategic efforts initiated by the Prime Minister over the past decade. We are proud of your (PM Modis) leadership which has strengthened the nations defence and global standing, Adityanath added.
Operation Sindoor not over yet, it showed world indigenous weapons' power: PM Modi
KANPUR: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said the world has seen the power of India's indigenous weapons during Operation Sindoor, which is ot over yet. Addressing a rally here after inaugurating and laying the foundation stones for 15 development projects worth over Rs 47,600 crore, he said big companies in the defence sector were coming to Uttar Pradesh and pointed out that the production of AK203 rifle has started in Amethi. About Operation Sindoor in the aftermath of the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people, Modi said India destroyed terrorist hideouts deep inside Pakistan, and the world saw the anger of our daughters and sisters in the form of Operation Sindoor. Operation Sindoor is not over yet. It showed the world power of indigenous weapons and Make in India. We destroyed terrorist hideouts in Pakistan by going hundreds of miles inside. Indian weapons, Brahmos missile entered enemy territory and wreaked havoc, the prime minister told the rally. The heroics of the Indian armed forces forced the Pakistani Army to plead to stop the war, he said and asserted that India would no longer be intimidated by the threat of the nuclear bomb nor would it make a decision on that basis. Moreover, Pakistan's ploy of state and non-state actors not going to work anymore, Modi told the rally. India's principle in the fight against terror is to give a befitting reply to every terror attack. Its time, method and conditions will be decided by our forces themselves, he added. Earlier in the day, the prime minister met the family members of Pahalgam terror attack victim Shubham Dwivedi at the Chakeri airport here. Local businessman Dwivedi (31) was among the 26 people killed in the Pahalgam terror attack.
NEW DELHI: In a dynamic display of leadership and strategic outreach, Prime Minister Narendra Modi undertook extensive visits to several Indian states throughout May this year, inaugurating and laying foundation stones for infrastructure and development projects worth a staggering Rs 2.8 lakh crore. His visits, particularly to states such as Bihar, skilfully blended governance with political messaging in the lead-up to the scheduled elections this year, underlining his governments commitment to inclusive development and its firm stance against terrorism. The Prime Minister spent two days each in Gujarat and poll-bound Bihar, while making day-long visits to Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Punjab, Sikkim, Madhya Pradesh, and West Bengal. In each of these states, he addressed large public gatherings and delivered powerful speeches, consistently referencing the recently concluded Operation Sindoor , Indias retaliatory military operation following the Pahalgam terror attack in April that claimed 26 civilian lives. A recurring and dominant theme during these visits was his repeated emphasis on the success of Operation Sindoor, which he hailed as emblematic of Indias new doctrine on terrorism. Calling the strikes on terror camps across the border a perfect operation, the Prime Minister asserted that it demonstrated Indias unwavering commitment to protecting its citizens. 'Came back to Bihar only after keeping my promise of teaching terrorists a lesson': PM Modi Operation Sindoor is not just a reply to one attack, it is a message to every enemy of India. We will hit back with full force wherever threats emerge, he declared at multiple rallies, including those in Sasaram, Bihar, and Alipurduar, West Bengal. Alongside the robust national security narrative, the Prime Minister also unveiled or laid the foundation for numerous development projects worth Rs 2.8 lakh crore, including initiatives worth Rs 48,000 crore in Bihar alone on 30 May. In Gujarat, he announced new ports, energy infrastructure, and urban development schemes. In Madhya Pradesh, he is scheduled to participate in the Lokmata Ahilyabai Mahila Sashaktikaran Maha Sammelan on 31 May, which is anticipated to be attended by a massive gathering of over two lakh women, most of whom will be dressed in sindoor-red saris, symbolising both womens empowerment and support for Operation Sindoor. Significantly, in West Bengal, ruled by the Trinamool Congress (TMC), the Prime Minister launched a sharp critique of the state government, accusing it of corruption and of harbouring anti-national elements, branding the TMC regime as a Nirmam Sarkar. In Punjabs Adampur, he met with and addressed soldiers, while in Uttar Pradeshs Kanpur, the PM touched on a variety of issues and levelled attacks against the Opposition, similar to his remarks in Bihar. Bihar man arrested for threatening to kill PM Modi during his state visit An official observed that the Prime Ministers visits in May were distinctly characterised by a strategic fusion of development pledges and strong national security messaging. By linking local infrastructure improvements with national defence initiatives such as Operation Sindoor, PM Modi aimed to strike a chord with both urban and rural voters ahead of upcoming elections, particularly in two states, West Bengal and Bihar, the official remarked. He also noted that the Prime Minister is likely to shift focus towards southern states like Tamil Nadu in the coming days. According to some political analysts, the Prime Ministers May visits not only reinforced the BJPs electoral narrative, showcasing a government that builds, defends, and projects strength in equal measure, but also highlighted PM Modis commitment to active governance. He has already proved himself not an armchair-stacked PM but a PM who visits, who visualises and who meets the people as Pradhan-sevak, quipped a senior official, adding that these state visits also helped the Prime Minister to gather feedback and gauge public sentiment regarding his governments performance.
