Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s packed schedule for January 17-18 takes him to West Bengal and Assam, blending temple visits, project launches, and high-voltage rallies. Kicking off in West Bengal, the Prime Minister lands in Kolkata before heading to Krishnanagar for a mega public meeting. Here, he’ll flag off initiatives under PM Awas Yojana and Jal Jeevan Mission, directly benefiting rural households. The Bengal leg emphasizes empowerment programs for self-help groups and MSMEs, with investments totaling Rs 2,800 crore. On January 18, Assam welcomes the PM with spiritual and developmental fervor. A highlight is the foundation stone for the state cancer care hospital in Guwahati, a Rs 1,100 crore facility equipped with cutting-edge tech.
