PM Modi Highlights Changing Nature Of Warfare In Council Of Ministers Meeting
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday asserted that indigenous weapons have proved their might and showed that they were second to none as he chaired a meeting of the Union Council of Ministers, sources said. He highlighted the changing nature of warfare, an apparent reference to the large-scale deployment of drones in the recent conflict with Pakistan during Operation Sindoor, and said 'Make in India' weapons and platforms will be a priority for the government, they said. PM Modi asked his Council of Ministers to aim high and work in overdrive to achieve the goals. The meeting witnessed a presentation that asserted India's strength in the conflict against Pakistan. It was also highlighted, a source said, that Pakistan itself acknowledged the extensive damage inflicted on it during Operation Sindoor. Another presentation highlighted "standout achievements" of different ministries. These achievements are likely to be taken to the masses as the Modi government celebrates the first anniversary of its third term on June 9. This was the first Union Council of Ministers meeting after Operation Sindoor. Sources said condolences were extended to the kin of the victims of the Bengaluru stampede, which left at least 11 dead. The cabinet secretary made a presentation on the achievements of the Modi government in its 11 years. Ministries of commerce and industry, and jal shakti were among the departments that made a presentation on Vision 2047. The health ministry spoke about the problem of obesity and the need for a healthy lifestyle in the meeting that lasted for over three and a half hours. Modi lay a stress on improving the quality of services and ramping up manufacturing. The PM, sources said, also asked ministers to communicate the government's achievements to the public. A source said Modi noted that earlier conflicts saw tanks rolling out through Punjab, but the changing warfare has changed things.

NITI Aayog meeting: Haryana sets target to become a one trillion-dollar economy by 2047
Haryana chief minister Nayab Singh Saini on Saturday presented a vision document-2047 highlighting the state's contribution in achieving the national goal of becoming a developed India by 2047. At the NITI Aayog's 10th governing council meeting chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the state's vision document outlined Haryana's target of becoming a one trillion-dollar economy by 2047 and the target to create 50 lakh new jobs. Saini said the Prime Minister's vision, policies, and decisions have consistently served the national interest, according to an official statement issued here. 'The vision of a developed India encompasses self-reliance, prosperity, empowerment, capability, inclusiveness, and technological advancement. It is our shared responsibility to realise this vision. To ensure Haryana's active contribution to the national vision, the Haryana government has developed the State Vision Document-2047 in alignment with the Nation's Vision Document,' he said. He said the state vision document sets a target of transforming Haryana into a one trillion-dollar economy by 2047. He further urged that once finalised, the Haryana Vision-2047 will be integrated into the national-level developed India dashboard. Saini said special emphasis has been placed on six key areas to contribute towards building a developed India. These priorities have also been incorporated into the state budget for the current financial year. To prepare Haryana for the future, a new entity called the department of future has been established, he stated. This department will explore development opportunities through cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and robotics, he said. Acting as a nodal agency, the department of future will spearhead long-term strategic initiatives, technological foresight, and integrated policy-making to realise a trillion-dollar economy goal and promote inclusive development, aligned with Haryana's Vision 2047, he said. The state is establishing the Haryana AI mission to advance artificial intelligence initiatives. Recently, the state has signed an agreement with the World Bank to support this effort, he stated. The Haryana Venture Capital Fund is actively working to promote startups by providing internships, mentorship, and affordable infrastructure for the youth. In addition, the state government has encouraged private investors to create a fund of funds worth ₹2,000 crore, aimed at positioning Haryana as a major hub for innovation and entrepreneurship through strategic investments in startups, he stated. The chief minister highlighted that technical barriers are a significant challenge to the rapid economic development, and the shelf life of skills is decreasing. Therefore, there is an urgent need to modernise the skill ecosystem. To address this, he proposed the development of an integrated skill hub to better equip the workforce for future demands, he said. He said the Haryana government launched a high-level task force called 'Mission Haryana-2047' last year, which has begun working towards making the state's GDP to one trillion US dollars and creating 50 lakh new jobs. Saini said that under the PM Gati Shakti initiative, Haryana has consistently retained the 'Achiever' category among landlocked states in the LEADS survey for three consecutive years -- 2022, 2023, and 2024. He highlighted that all projects costing over ₹100 crore are now required to align with the National Master Plan of PM Gati Shakti. To ease regulatory hurdles, more than 1,100 complex compliances have been simplified, creating a favourable environment for investors in the state, he said. The state government will soon establish an ease of doing business cell to further streamline processes, he said. 'Efforts are also underway to eliminate criminalisation from minor provisions across more than 230 Acts in 37 departments. To support this, a state-level Jan Vishwas Bill is being drafted and is expected to be notified by December 2025. This legislation aims to ensure a reliable, transparent, and efficient governance system,' he said.

Union Minister of Health and Family Welfare Jagat Prakash Nadda chaired the meeting, attended by PGI general body members and guests. PGIMER Deputy Director Pankaj Rai said all agendas of the general body meeting were referred to the Institute Body, which gives a final nod to crucial matters related to infrastructure, equipment, patient care and services, recruitments, etc., for the institute. 'We are very happy that all 29 agendas received a nod.' 'During the session, the union health minister emphasised the importance of shaping PGI's future through the preparation of a comprehensive 'Vision 2047' document,' he said. 'This strategic plan aims to position PGI as a global leader in medical education, research and healthcare over the next two decades. The institute was entrusted with developing strategies to enhance its academic programs, infrastructure, and community outreach efforts,' he said. Rai said the long-standing demand for a dedicated Technical Cadre at the PGI was approved, too. The implementation of a six-tier cadre structure is expected to streamline technical support, improve operational efficiency, and enhance overall institute functioning. 'This has been long-standing since about 2003, and more than 700 employees will benefit from it, and we received complete support for the Institute's mission of excellence in medical education, research, and healthcare,' said Rai. To strengthen the Satellite Centre in Ferozepur, 637 positions were approved, comprising 111 faculty and 526 non-faculty staff to ensure the Centre's full operational readiness and help alleviate the patient load at PGI, he said. Nadda commended PGI's exemplary service during 'Op Sindoor,' highlighting the institute's commitment to the nation. He praised the swift response by the PGI in sending five ambulances stocked with medical supplies and 218 units of blood. He lauded the PGI for dispatching its multi-disciplinary team of doctors, nursing officers, and ambulance drivers from various parts of India, exemplifying unity and a spirit of national service. 'We have to prepare and submit a detailed project report (DPR) for the Sarangpur Project, which envisions the development of a 100-bedded medical college, an Advanced Cancer Institute, a Trauma Centre, and outpatient departments (OPD). The initiative seeks to substantially expand PGI's healthcare and training capacities in the region,' Rai said. The Sangrur Centre has an OPD, accommodating more than 700 patients daily, with many surgeries also done here, and the waiting time for surgeries is almost negligible, he said.
