Prime Minister’s Encouraging Message to Ministers Ahead of Lok Sabha Polls: ‘Go, Win, Will See You Soon’

Ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi gave his Council of Ministers a fairly straightforward message during a day-long meeting that he chaired: “Go, win. I’ll see you shortly. The purpose of the important meeting was to discuss a comprehensive action plan for the following five years as well as to brainstorm ideas for the vision document, “Viksit Bharat 2047.”
Sources claim that PM Modi advised ministers to exercise caution when interacting with individuals, “particularly during elections.”

The Prime Minister also counseled the ministers to steer clear of controversy and exercise caution when it came to deepfakes during his nearly hour-long speech to them.
“Please exercise caution before speaking. Be wary of the deepfake trend that is popular right now, as the prime minister was cited by a source as saying. Voice, among other things, can be changed.

Deepfake videos are artificial media in which the person’s likeness is substituted for the real person in an already-existing image or video.

“Speak about the schemes, avoid controversial statements,” he stated.

According to the sources, the Prime Minister stated that the upcoming full budget, which will be presented in June, should show a glimpse of a “Viksit Bharat (developed India).” It is believed that he requested that business associations such as CII and FICCI be encouraged to initiate discussions on the topic and that Viksit Bharat seminars be added to the departmental agenda. According to the sources, PM Modi requested that departments create an action plan and submit ideas for it.
Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman unveiled an interim budget on February 1 in 2024, a year that will see elections. A new government will be formed before the entire budget is presented. By May, the general election is scheduled.

According to government sources, the meeting discussed and a 100-day plan for immediate action following the formation of a new government in May was decided upon for prompt implementation.

They claimed that after more than two years of intense planning, the “Viksit Bharat” roadmap was created. It involved a “whole of government” approach involving all ministries and extensive consultations with state governments, academic institutions, business associations, civil society, scientific organizations, and youth mobilization for ideas.

At various levels, there were over 2,700 meetings, workshops, and seminars. More than 20 lakh young people submitted suggestions, they said.

The Prime Minister also discussed how to use the ₹1 lakh crore budget allocated for future technologies to propel India’s innovation forward during the meeting.
