PM Modi fooling people of Bihar: Prashant
Patna, June 17 (UNI) Jan Suraaj founder Prashant Kishor on Tuesday charged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been befooling people of Bihar during his every visit to the state.
Kishor, during his "Badlao Yatra" in Gopalganj district of Bihar, told media persons that PM Modi had been befooling people of Bihar during his every visit to the state in election year.
Even during 2015 Bihar assembly elections, Modi had promised special package of Rs 1.25 lakh crore to the state, but it was never fulfilled, he pointed out.
"In election year, PM Modi is visiting Bihar almost every month and making tall promises, but no effort is being made to fulfil the same," Jan Suraaj leader said and informed that huge amount was being spent for making arrangements during his visit.
People of Bihar were coughing up to bear expenses of PM's visit to the state, he added.
Kishor stated that high-tech cottages were being made with huge expenses for short stay of leaders who would arrive to welcome PM Modi at the venue in Siwan on June 20.
People of Bihar had seen true face of PM Modi and they would not fall into his trap again during Bihar assembly elections, slated for October-November this year, he remarked.

India, Canada to restore High Commissioners for the 1st time since 2023 after Modi-Carney hit diplomatic reset at G7
India, Canada to restore High Commissioners for the 1st time since 2023 after Modi-Carney hit diplomatic reset at G7 India and Canada have agreed to restore full diplomatic ties and appoint new high commissioners, marking a significant thaw in strained relations following months of tension in the sideline of G7 Leaders' Summit. A statement issued by the office of the Canadian Prime Minister said that Carney and Modi reaffirmed the importance of Canada-India ties based upon mutual respect, the rule of law, and a commitment to the principle of sovereignty and territorial integrity. 'The leaders agreed to designate new high commissioners, with a view to returning to regular services to citizens and businesses in both countries,' the statement said. The two leaders also discussed strong and historic ties between the peoples, partnerships in the Indo-Pacific, and significant commercial links between Canada and India – including partnerships in economic growth, supply chains, and energy transformation. Carney 'raised priorities on the G7 agenda, including transnational crime and repression, security, and the rules-based order,' the statement said adding that the leaders also discussed opportunities to deepen engagement in areas such as technology, the digital transition, food security, and critical minerals. In 2023, Canada accused the Indian government of being involved in the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a leader who supported a separate Khalistan. Because of this, Canada kicked out six Indian diplomats. India then responded by kicking out six Canadian diplomats. This caused a big problem between the two countries, stopping important meetings and discussions. However, things seem to be improving. When Mark Carney became Canada's new Prime Minister in April, he met with India's Prime Minister Modi. PM Modi called their meeting 'excellent' and highlighted that both countries believe in democracy, freedom, and the rule of law . PM Modi also said he looks forward to working with PM Carney to strengthen the friendship between India and Canada. PM Carney welcomed PM Modi to the G7 meeting, saying it was a 'great honor' to have India there. He said India's involvement shows how important the country and its leadership are globally, especially in dealing with issues like energy, AI, and fighting crime and terrorism across borders. Canada is home to one of the largest Indian diasporas globally, comprising nearly 4.5 per cent of its population. This includes about 1.8 million Canadians of Indian origin, nearly 770,000 of whom are Sikh and nearly one million Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), including students and skilled workers. In 2022, Indian students formed the largest cohort of international students in Canada, making up 41 per cent of the total. However, recent immigration tightening has affected their opportunities and impacted Canadian universities' financial health.

'No Place For Double Standards On Terrorism': PM Modi's Big Remark At G7 Meet In Canada
Last Updated: PM Modi emphasized that the April 22nd attack in Pahalgam as an assault on all humanity. Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said there should be no place for double standards on terrorism, and that countries which openly support terrorism are often rewarded, apparently referring to Pakistan, which receives billions of dollars in aid and misuses it to finance cross-border terror. Speaking at the G7 Outreach Session in Kananaskis, PM Modi said the terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam in April this year was an assault on humanity. Calling terrorism an 'enemy of humanity", the Prime Minister said it is against all countries that uphold democratic values. 'There should be no place for double standards on terrorism… Terrorism is an enemy of humanity. It is against all countries that uphold democratic values. For global peace and prosperity, our thoughts and policies must be clear – if any country supports terrorism, it will have to pay the price for it…," he said. Adding further, PM Modi said, 'On one hand, we are quick to impose all kinds of sanctions based on our own preferences. On the other hand, countries that openly support terrorism are rewarded." PM Modi Highlights Energy Security For All Through Sustainable Way In his address, the Prime Minister highlighted the need to ensure energy security for all through a sustainable and green pathway and elaborated on India's global initiatives such as the International Solar Alliance (ISA), the Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure (CDRI), and the Global Biofuels Alliance in pursuit of this objective. Calling attention to the concerns and priorities of the Global South, he noted that India considers it its responsibility to bring the voice of the Global South to the world stage. The Prime Minister reiterated India's experience in democratising the use of technology and its human-centric approach to its deployment. He also called for addressing global governance issues to tackle concerns around artificial intelligence (AI) and to promote innovation in the field. PM Modi Says Deepfake Cause Of Great Concern PM Modi said that deepfake is a cause of great concern. Therefore, watermarking or a clear declaration should be made on AI-generated content, he added.

PM Modi leaves for Croatia after concluding 'productive' Canada visit – ‘committed to furthering global peace'
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has left for Croatia, the third and final stop of his three-nation tour, after concluding his "productive" visit to Canada, where he attended the G7 Summit. The G7 summit was the first multilateral event attended by PM Modi after the conclusion of Operation Sindoor – India's precision strikes on terror camps in Pakistan last month, in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people, mostly tourists in the popular hill station in Jammu and Kashmir. "Concluding a productive Canada visit. Thankful to the Canadian people and Government for hosting a successful G7 Summit, which witnessed fruitful discussions on diverse global issues. We remain committed to furthering global peace, prosperity and sustainability," he said in a post on X on Tuesday. In Kananaskis, the prime minister held "productive" exchanges with leaders of the seven-nation bloc on key global challenges and shared aspirations for a better planet. Modi met with nine global leaders within ten hours in Canada. During the meetings, he discussed ways to enhance bilateral cooperation in areas such as trade and the economy. Among the leaders that he met were his Canadian counterpart Mark Carney, South Korean President Lee Jae-myung, French President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and his Australian counterpart Anthony Albanese. During his talks with PM Carney, Modi emphasised that the relations between the two nations are "extremely important", adding that New Delhi and Ottawa should work together to achieve win-win cooperation in various sectors. Following the talks, India and Canada agreed to designate new high commissioners, with a view to returning to regular services to citizens and businesses in both countries, according to a statement by the office of the Canadian Prime Minister. In October last year, India recalled its high commissioner and five other diplomats after Ottawa attempted to link them to the Nijjar case. India also expelled an equal number of Canadian diplomats. Prime Minister Modi arrived in Calgary, Canada on Monday evening from Cyprus. This was his first visit to Canada in a decade. The Group of Seven (G7) consists of seven of the world's advanced economies—Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the US, the UK, and the European Union. Modi received a call from PM Carney earlier this month, during which the latter invited the prime minister to attend the G7 meeting. The India-Canada relations have been strained in recent years, especially under the leadership of former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who resigned in January, paving the way for Mark Carney. Before the latest victory in May 2025, Carney was sworn in as the 24th prime minister of Canada, replacing Trudeau on March 14, 2025. In October 2024, India-Canada ties nosedived further when Canada expelled six Indian diplomats. India denied any involvement in Nijjar's killing and condemned the accusations as baseless. Subsequently, both countries expelled top envoys, froze trade negotiations, and suspended official visits. India has been accusing Canada of harbouring extremism in Canada's Sikh diaspora. New Delhi views any support for Khalistani elements abroad as a threat to national security. While Trudeau was seen as a leader unwilling to act on Indian concerns, Carney, a political newcomer, had recently described himself as the 'most useful in a crisis.' During his campaign, he identified rebuilding ties with India as a priority, signalling a reset in relations between the two nations. Concluding a productive Canada visit. Thankful to the Canadian people and Government for hosting a successful G7 Summit. Prime Minister Narendra Modi was among the first global leaders to congratulate Carney for his win. Canada has nearly 18 lakh residents of Indian origin, of whom the Sikh population is roughly 7.7 lakh. Another 10 lakh Non-Resident Indians are in Canada as students, skilled workers, and temporary workers.
