The priority of the Modi govt's four pillars is the poor, youth, farmers and women of developed India: MoS Home Nityanand Rai
Gaya (Bihar) [India], June 12 (ANI): Union Minister of State Home Affairs Nityanand Rai on Thursday addressed a press Conference on the Occasion of the 11-year completion of the Modi Government in the Centre and highlighted the achievements made under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership. Rai said that the Modi government's priority has always been the four pillars of a developed India: the poor, youth, farmers, and women. MoS Home Nityanand Rai further said in a Press Conference that now, strict action will be taken against terrorist attacks like a war. Operation Sindoor has precisely hit the terrorist camps and airbases of Pakistan, which is a symbol of the new strength of the changing India. Pakistan has received a clear and strong message that terror, water and trade cannot go together. Blood and water cannot flow together. Any attack on Indian soil will be treated as an act of war. The 11 years of the Modi Government are about development and legacy. The Modi government means good governance and welfare of people with low incomes. India is creating a history of development and valour, in which Modi Ji's resolve, herculean efforts, and success are visible in the last 11 years,' Rai added. MoS Home Nityanand Raid further said that Swami Vivekananda had predicted that the 21st century would belong to India, where no one would be hungry, illiterate, or homeless. Swami Vivekananda's childhood name was Narendra; today, the name of India's Karmayogi Prime Minister is also Narendra. One, Narendra, made a prophecy; another is fulfilling it. Before 2014, the thinking of the Previous Congress government was 'It cannot happen,' and today, 'Modi hai toh Mumkin Hai.' The government is now responsive, accountable, and public participation-oriented, and the mantra is 'Reform, Perform, Transform,' he added. MoS Home further said that Under the Modi regime, several historic developments were made, including the removal of Article 370, the construction of Ram Mandir, Kashi Vishwanath Corridor, the Statue of Unity, Panchtirtha, and the National War Memorial, the honouring of heroes, the implementation of GST, and the coming into force of the Waqf Act. 'There has been a revolution in infrastructure under the leadership of Modi Ji. The Hon'ble Prime Minister inaugurated the world's tallest Chenab railway bridge. One hundred eleven waterways have been declared national waterways. 3600 km of high-speed corridor has been constructed,' he added. Rai further added that under the Modi government, 99% of villages have connectivity under the government. 34 km of highways have been constructed daily. The railway budget has increased 9 times. 136 Vande Bharat trains have been run.103 Amrut Bharat stations have been renovated. The number of airports has risen to 160 due to the Udan scheme, and air travel has become affordable. (ANI)

Modi government's 11 years full of achievements:MoS defence
Union minister of state for defence Sanjay Seth on Tuesday said that the 11 years of Modi government are full of achievements and remain unmatched. Seth, who addressed the media in Shimla, said that today the whole world looks at India with respect and the world's view towards India has changed. Today's India is a new India which neither fears anyone, nor bows down, nor extends hands in front of anyone. 'During the Covid-19 pandemic, when the world invented the vaccine, we invented not one but two vaccines, then the Congress party made fun of it. The Prime Minister not only saved 140 crore lives but also saved the world by giving vaccines to 118 countries,' he said. The minister of state for defence said that on PM's call, 175 countries of the world accepted June 21 as Yoga Day. 'No one believed that India would organise such a grand G-20 summit but the whole world acknowledged the success with which the government organised the summit. When the Ukraine-Russia war started, we evacuated 23,000 students from safely and students from 28 countries came out safely from there with our tricolor flag in their hands. Under Operation Kaveri, more than 3,000 Indians were brought back safely,' Seth said. The MoS further said that after the Pahalgam terror attack, the country wanted revenge and our PM said that those who were behind this incident would be razed to the ground and he did it. 'This is the first time in the world that such a huge military operation was carried out on a nuclear-armed country. Our mighty army destroyed the terrorists within 23 minutes and destroyed 11 of their air bases,' he said.

Centre simplifies GFR rules for procurement of scientific equipment, consumables
New Delhi: In a major step towards the ease of doing research, the General Finance Rules (GFR) have been simplified for procurement of scientific equipment and consumables, said Jitendra Singh, Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Science and Technology on Saturday. GFRs are the governing financial regulations for the government, outlining procedures for managing public finances. Applicable to Central government ministries, departments, for autonomous bodies with their own approved financial regulations, the GFRs cover aspects like budgeting, procurement, expenditure, and accounting. In a post on social media platform X, Singh noted that the move will enhance autonomy for young researchers. 'Here is a heartening news and a major breakthrough for young aspiring startups, innovators, and researchers: In a landmark step enabling ease of doing research, the GFR rules have been simplified for procurement of scientific equipment and consumables,' Singh said. 'This will reduce delays, also enhance autonomy and flexibility for research institutions -- empowering them to innovate faster,' he added. The MoS also lauded Prime Minister Narendra Modi 'for this transformative reform which will accelerate the technology-driven journey of Viksit Bharat'. An Office Memorandum, dated June 5, permitted Vice-Chancellors, directors of scientific organisations, and academic institutions 'to make non-Government e-Marketplace (GeM) procurement of scientific equipment and consumables'. The order is valid only for departments of Science and Technology; Biotechnology; Scientific and Industrial Research; Atomic Energy; Space; Earth Sciences; Defence Research and Development Organization; Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), including its affiliated institutions and Universities; Health Research (DHR), including Indian Council of Medical Research; educational and research institutes conducting post-graduate/ doctoral level courses or research, under any Ministry/ Department, the memorandum said. With the simplified rules, the limit of purchase of goods without quotation has been increased from the current Rs. 1,00,000 to Rs. 2,00,000. Similarly, the limit on the purchase of goods by the Purchase Committee has been increased to Rs. 2,00,000 and up to Rs. 25,00,000. For the Limited Tender Enquiry (LTE), the amended limit is up to Rs. 1 crore, while for Advertised Tender Enquiry, the new limit is above Rs. 1 crore, the memorandum said. The amendment is likely to provide greater flexibility to scientific Ministries to import and buy equipment necessary for research.
