Meerut, 22 February (H.S.): Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a scathing attack on Congress today while inaugurating development projects from Meerut, accusing the opposition of politicizing the world's largest AI Impact Summit in Delhi with dirty and naked politics in front of foreign dignitaries.

PM Modi highlighted the summit—attended by representatives from over 80 countries and heads of state from nearly 20 nations—as a matter of national pride, asking the Meerut crowd if they felt honored by it. He alleged Congress staged semi-nude protests before international guests, questioning, The nation knows you (Congress) are already naked—why bother removing clothes? He branded this as the party's ideological bankruptcy and an attempt to malign India's global image.

At the event,PM Modi dedicated India's first Namo Bharat Rapid Rail (RRTS) service, the full Delhi-Meerut Namo Bharat corridor, and the Meerut Metro (South-Modipuram section) to the nation—marking the first simultaneous launch of RRTS and metro from one platform, showcasing modern connectivity.

For the first time, Namo Bharat and metro services operate on the same station and track. Indian Railways, metro, and bus terminals are interlinked at Sarai Kale Khan, Anand Vihar, Ghaziabad, and Meerut stations, enabling seamless intra-city and Delhi travel.

PM Modi credited BJP's double-engine governance for timely project completion, noting metro services expanded from five cities pre-2014 to over 25 today, positioning India as the world's third-largest metro network. He emphasized Namo Bharat's embodiment of Nari Shakti, with women dominating train operator and station control roles.

Uttar Pradesh farmers have received nearly ₹95,000 crore under PM Kisan Samman Nidhi. Modi reiterated BJP's commitment to high-speed, congestion-free, pollution-free transport while contrasting Congress-era scams that deterred global deals with today's India as a 21st-century solutions hub attracting trade pacts. He honored Chaudhary Charan Singh—whose Bharat Ratna his government bestowed—with local vision alignment.
