'A growth that includes everyone! In 11 years, PM Narendra Modi has turned inclusive development into reality, ensuring no one is left behind. Only empowerment, not promises. This is Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas in action,' MyGovIndia wrote.
Meanwhile, on Wednesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi chaired the Union Council of Ministers meeting, the first such meeting after Operation Sindoor.
'Chaired a meeting of the Council of Ministers earlier this evening,' PM Modi posted on X.
Sources said that a presentation on Operation Sindoor was made at the meeting.
They said all the ministries presented their key achievements, which are expected to be highlighted during the first anniversary celebrations of the PM Modi government in its third term.
The sources said PM Modi is learnt to have talked of the performance of the Indian-made defence systems during Operation Sindoor and the government's thrust on indigenisation.
They said PM Modi laid thrust on hard work to realise the targets set by the government.
India launched Operation Sindoor as a decisive military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack by Pak-sponsored terrorists in which 26 people were killed. Indian Armed Forces targeted terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, leading to the death of over 100 terrorists.
India also effectively responded to subsequent Pakistani aggression and pounded its airbases.
India and Pakistan agreed to stop military action after Pakistan's DGMO called his Indian counterpart on May 10. (ANI)

"Has His Reasons": Shashi Tharoor On Rahul Gandhi's "Dead Economy" Remark
Mumbai: Congress MP Shashi Tharoor on Saturday refused to comment on party leader Rahul Gandhi's endorsing US President Donald Trump's 'dead economy' remark about India and said the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha may have had his "own reasons" for saying so. The remarks came after Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on Thursday agreed with US President Donald Trump's statement that the Indian economy is "dead" and said he is "glad" that the US President has stated a fact. Speaking to the mediapersons, Tharoor said, "I don't want to comment on what my party leader has said. He has his reasons for saying so. My concern is that our relationship with the US, as a strategic and economic partnership, is important for us. We are exporting around 90 billion worth of goods to America. We can't be in a position to lose that or have it diminish significantly." "We must wish our negotiators strength to get a fair deal for India. We should also be talking to other regions for exporting our goods. Then we could make up for some of what we might lose in the US. We have to support our negotiators," he added. Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on Thursday agreed with US President Donald Trump's statement that the Indian economy is "dead" and said he is "glad" that the US President has stated a fact. Speaking to reporters, Rahul Gandhi said that the whole world knows the Indian economy is "dead" except for the Prime Minister and Finance Minister. "Yes, he is right. Everybody knows this except the Prime Minister and the Finance Minister. Everybody knows that the Indian economy is a dead economy. I am glad that President Trump has stated a fact. The entire world knows that the Indian economy is a dead economy. BJP has finished the economy to help Adani," Rahul Gandhi said. On Wednesday, US President Donald Trump made a shocking statement on his social media platform Truth Social after the announcement of 25 percent tariffs against India and threatened an additional "penalty" for importing Russian oil.

Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Saturday said with the release of the 20th installment of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi, an amount of more than Rs 3,300 crore has been provided to the farmers of the hilly state so far. Virtually taking part in a programme in Varanasi where Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday digitally transferred a total amount of more than Rs 20,500 crore to the accounts of 9.70 crore farmers of the country under the 20th installment of the scheme, Dhami said with this, an amount of Rs 184.25 crore was transferred to over eight lakh beneficiary farmer families of Uttarakhand. It takes the total amount paid so far under the scheme to the farmers of Uttarakhand to Rs 3,300 crore, he said. After 2014, historic steps have been taken for the welfare of farmers across the country. The prime minister is continuously working to double the income of farmers and raise their standard of living, he said. By increasing the minimum support price on major crops, the farmers are being provided a fair price for their crop. Through the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana, the farmers are also being provided security cover for losses caused by natural disasters, crop diseases and pests, he said. Through the Soil Health Card scheme, by scientifically examining the soil of the fields, farmers are also being informed about the deficiency of nutrients and necessary fertilisers, which is improving both the quality of their produce and the fertility of the land. The chief minister said that under the guidance of Prime Minister Modi, the state government is continuously working for the upliftment and prosperity of the farmers of the state. Loans up to Rs 3 lakh are being made available to farmers in the state without interest. Up to 80 per cent subsidy is also being provided through the Farm Machinery Bank Scheme for purchasing agricultural equipment. Irrigation from canals has been made completely free in the interest of farmers. A provision of Rs 200 crore has also been made for the construction of polyhouses to increase the income of farmers. Along with providing a bonus of Rs 20 per quintal to farmers on wheat purchase, the price of sugarcane has also been increased by Rs 20 per quintal. The chief minister said that many important schemes like the new apple policy, kiwi policy, State Millet Mission and Dragon Fruit Policy have been implemented by the state government at a cost of Rs 1,200 crore. Under these policies, a subsidy of up to 80 per cent is being provided to farmers to promote horticulture.
