It was on this day in 2014 that inclusive development with the mantra of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas’ acquired a new definition when Sh Narendra Modi Ji began his epochal journey as the Pradhan Sevak of India. A leader of the people, PM Modi Ji’s policies of transformative socio-economic & financial reforms have scripted India’s growth story & made every Indian a stakeholder in India’s journey towards a glorious future. PM’s decisive, visionary and firm leadership has ensured that India overcomes any challenge that comes our way and turns it into an opportunity as we journey through Amrit Kaal towards Viksit Bharat. 12 years ago, for millions of poor Indians, development was a distant promise. Today, mothers and sisters cook in smokeless kitchens, villagers receive water at home, workers have a bank account, families get free healthcare, and youth dream beyond survival. From darkness to electricity, from exclusion to digital empowerment, from helplessness to aspiration, this journey under PM Modi Ji’s leadership is the soul of New India. The dream of Viksit Bharat is not just about becoming a developed nation by 2047. It is about giving dignity, opportunity, and hope to every ordinary citizen. #12YearsOfModiGovernment #ViksitBharat #AmritKaal

#WATCH | Delhi: On letter of over 100 prominent citizens from India & Pakistan to both PMs for 'restoring peace, normalcy, dialogue', Congress MP Manish Tewari says, "It's extremely unfortunate that some people have forgotten the Baisaran massacre. It has been only 1 year 2 months and 8 days since innocent tourists where mercilessly butchered in front of their families in the name of their faith. Pakistan's perfidy, its export of terror against India, its desire for retribution to bleed India with a thousand cuts now goes back almost 5 decades when we dismembered Pakistan and created a new country called Bangladesh. So, over these 5 decades every effort that India made to reach out to Pakistan had been followed by a terror attack sponsored by Pakistan. I am really surprised as to how these very eminent people can forget this history. What do you want to talk to Pakistan about? What is it that India wants from Pakistan? The only thing India wants from Pakistan is that there should be no export of terror. So, under those circumstances this misty-eyed romanticism about wanting to normalise relaationships with a country which has been hell-bent upon creating a mayhem and terror in India is completely inexplicable, completely beyond comprehension. God alone knows where this pressure is coming from, which is that invisible hand which seems to be pressurising people in India to try and normalise..."

VIDEO | Saint Petersburg, Russia: When asked about the relations between India-China-Pakistan, Russian President Vladimir Putin told PTI CEO and Editor-in-Chief Vijay Joshi: "Of course, we are well aware of the intricacies of the issues concerning the border between India and Pakistan, you said that Pakistan is a country that is fully under the control of China, I don't think so, first and foremost, Pakistan is a large country, it has multi-faceted ties with different countries, of course, for Pakistan, it is very important to take into account the cooperation with the Republic of China, but everyone is developing the relations with China... India ranks third, Russia ranks fourth in terms of its GDP... China, US, India, and Russia that's the top four countries... These are delicate, multi-faceted relations between India and China, and interfering into them is not a good idea. Of course, we interact with our friends in both India and China... President Xi and PM Modi are both trying to resolve all the issues of mutual interest, including the relations on the border... As for Russia, we have our own relations with China, with India, no one is holding grudges, for decades we have been establishing this relations, it was happening naturally, relations between Russia and India do not disturb China, our relations with China do not disturb India... This linkage helps everyone... At one point, I suggested that leaders of India, China meet here, that's how Russia-India-China was established. We had things to talk about, to agree upon, we started doing later on, then we were joined by Brazil, because Brazil wanted to take part... South Africa joined with BRICS, we continue to expand, when we meet, we talk, we come to an agreement. We don't have any issues in cooperation either with India or China, we know that we have multi-faceted cooperation, we cooperate with India in terms of armaments... both land and sea-based BrahMos missiles... We proposed our Indian friends to work together on technology, the fifth generation technology. But Indian friends said do it on your own and we will join, we are ready to work with India in this field to supply aircraft, we don't have any issue with, any limitation, same goes with defence system, for air-defence system, it is critical to have separate components, but it's more important to create a system... You have to take into account, that there should be one information system that would be working in real-time... Now we are working on updating the system, it is unique expertise, we are ready to share this technology with Chinese, Indian friends, we keep working in this regard."

In the 137th edition of #MannKiBaat, PM Sh Narendra Modi Ji once again highlighted inspiring grassroots stories, citizen-led initiatives and the power of positive public participation in nation-building. He spoke about youth empowerment, the collective resolve for a Nasha Mukt Bharat, India’s rich heritage, and innovation and entrepreneurship across rural and urban India, while emphasising how technology can help preserve and bring our history closer to the people and the spirit of Jan Bhagidari. This spirit is also reflected in the journey of the visionary PM SVANidhi Scheme which has emerged as a powerful instrument of financial inclusion, providing street vendors with affordable working-capital loans, digital opportunities and greater financial dignity. With nearly 46% of beneficiaries, of which around 35 lakh being women, the scheme has become an important enabler of women-led development. It helps mothers and sisters grow their businesses, strengthen their families and build greater confidence and financial independence. Launched in June 2020, PM SVANidhi is not just supporting livelihoods, but nurturing inclusive, dignified and empowered growth.

The Pride of Being Indian! 🔥 Ever wondered if India has TRULY changed in the last 10-11 years? As Anupam Kher rightly said, the perception of Indians has shifted globally. We are no longer just another country; we are an aspirational nation that the world looks up to! Think about it - we were "Gulam" (enslaved) for 1,000 years, yet we managed to keep our "Hindustaniyat" alive. That is the real strength of our people and our culture. Today, being an Indian comes with a new kind of respect, and that pride is visible on every face. It’s time to celebrate how far we’ve come and keep building the Bharat we all dreamed of!

The Obama Presidential Center is more than just a campus; it’s a living institution rooted in community, and built to serve generations to come. We built it with you and your families in mind, and that’s why you'll be greeted by our amazing team when you visit. We’ve made sure of it. More than 17,000 people applied for frontline jobs at the Center, and we hired the top 1 percent. Because, as President Obama says, “When people come here, we want them to feel what makes the South Side so special—that mix of warmth and grit, the sense of humor that can brighten any day, the creativity that turns challenges into opportunities, and the joy that shows up in every block, every church, every family reunion.” Recently, President Obama welcomed these new employees in our auditorium, and he greeted them as he toured the Museum and campus with Obama Foundation CEO Valerie Jarrett. He talked with them about how every job here matters. He said each one of us is responsible for making our visitors feel welcome and safe and to remember we are all ambassadors of hope. We all cannot wait to welcome you.

Jensen Huang just delivered the most important warning no one in Washington is ready to hear. Not about China. About what America is doing to itself. Huang: “We should always have the best technology here. We should always have the most technology here, and the first. But we should also try to compete and win around the world.” Washington heard that and locked onto China. Jensen wasn’t talking about China. He was talking about India. The Middle East. Africa. Southeast Asia. The next two billion people coming online. All of them about to build on somebody’s AI stack. The question was never whether they get the technology. The question is whose name is on it. Huang: “It requires some amount of nuance, some amount of maturity, instead of absolutes. The world is just not absolute.” Washington doesn’t do nuance. Washington does ban lists. Restriction is now the entire American AI strategy. Not deployment. Not adoption. Not global capture. Restriction. As if you win a technology race by refusing to run it. And nobody in Washington understands what happens when you cut somebody off. They don’t stop. They build their own. Every restriction is an invitation to innovate without you. Every ban is a blueprint for independence. Every chip you refuse to sell is a chip someone else learns how to make. You are not slowing competitors down. You are giving them the one thing they never had before. Motivation to never need you again. That is not a hypothetical. That is the pattern. Every single time. Countries that cannot count on American access stop waiting for it. They invest. They recruit. They accelerate. They make breakthroughs they never would have made if Washington had just shown up and competed. You don’t contain progress by withholding it. You pour jet fuel on the one outcome you were trying to prevent. Meanwhile the people making these decisions have never built anything. Not a chip. Not a model. Not a product. Not a company. Bureaucrats writing regulation for an industry they cannot even describe accurately. Committees moving at the speed of subcommittee. And the entire American AI future is being filtered through people whose greatest technological achievement is a shared Google Doc. And here is what no one in that room wants to admit. The United States is not competing against Chinese technology. It is competing against Chinese willingness to show up. While Congress debates which chips to block, Beijing is already on a plane. Signing infrastructure deals across four continents. Not with better hardware. With available hardware. And available has beaten superior in every technology war ever fought. VHS over Betamax. Android over iOS globally. The best product never wins. The most adopted one does. Standards are not products. Standards are dependency. The kind that compounds for generations. Every country running American AI is locked into the American ecosystem permanently. Every country that isn’t belongs to somebody else. And every country America cut off is now building infrastructure designed to ensure it never has to ask again. Huang: “Your policy and what you imagined literally caused the United States to concede the second largest market in the world for no good reason at all.” That is not an opinion. That is the man building the infrastructure of the future telling Washington it is engineering its own irrelevance. The cruelest part is not that America could lose the AI race. It is that America could lose it while being absolutely certain it is winning. Because restriction feels like power. It feels like control. Like dominance. Like you are holding every card. But you are not holding anything. You are just not playing. And every day you sit there writing rules instead of shipping technology, someone else is filling the vacuum you created. History never remembers who built the best technology. Only whose technology the world was already running on when it mattered.

When a train accident took his limbs, a 25 year old Rapido driver lost his livelihood overnight. He lay there bleeding for hours, asking for help. People watched. People recorded. No one stepped forward. This is a kind of silence that cuts deeper than any wound. The silence that tells you your life is not urgent enough. And yet, today, he is still choosing to fight. Because every morning, he sees his 55 year old father, recovering from heart surgery, step out again as a Zomato delivery partner just to support him. That resolve is what keeps him going. He is now trying to raise funds for bionic arms so he can begin again with dignity. To work again. To regain a sense of independence most of us take for granted. If you can help in any way, it would mean more than you know.

What were you doing when you were 13? Jaiwardhan was already pitching on Shark Tank. An AI healthcare startup. Self-built. Self-driven. At an age when most of us were still figuring out what we liked - he was figuring out what he wanted to change in the world. We backed him through our founder fellowship. Not just with capital but with belief, access, and mentorship. Because I remember what that one push did for me. Jay’s journey is just beginning but the kind of beginning that tells you everything about where it’s headed. And I’m grateful to be a small part of it! Shark Tank India sonytv Sony LIV

Saudis noted India’s failure to defy US over Chabahar port, analyst says India poured huge resources into Iran’s Chabahar port, including the $500 million announced by PM Modi in 2016. Speaking on the Cineink Podcast London Varta, Dr Ayesha Siddiqa (Senior Fellow in War Studies at King’s College London) put it bluntly: “India made significant investments on Chabahar in Iran, yet when the moment came it was unable to stand up to America diplomatically. That revealed something to Saudi Arabia about the limits of India who could not stand up to the USA.” She is careful to note that the issue is not a lack of concern inside India. Rather, what is emerging is a new medium- to long-term alignment in the region. “Do not forget the background: America is withdrawing. Three years ago, when talk of the Quad was at its height, the narrative was that America and India would stand together against China. Pakistan barely featured. The scenario now taking shape is different.” She added: An alternative security framework is taking shape in the Arab world under a different set of understandings. Whether or not Pakistan ever actually fights a war with Israel or anyone else is almost secondary. The architecture itself is being built. India’s position in this shifting landscape is characteristically complex. It stands with Israel, yet for its energy, connectivity and strategic needs it must still negotiate with Iran and keep channels open with Saudi Arabia. The scale of mutual investment between India and Saudi Arabia is now so large that no one is about to tear up those ties simply because of Pakistan. Riyadh has long supported India’s position on Article 370 and is not about to go to war over Kashmir.

Today, I’m proud to share something we’ve been building for months - Artham, India’s first Small Language Model (SLM) built exclusively for Indian Capital Markets. We unveiled it at AWS re:Invent 2025 in Las Vegas, marking a defining milestone for India, AI, and Raise on the world stage. 🚀 This isn’t just a product launch. It’s a statement that India no longer has to rely on global AI models that were never designed to understand the depth, nuance, and realities of our markets. We can and we will build for ourselves. Artham is shaped by the realities of Indian markets — SEBI’s rulebook, NSE & BSE dynamics, corporate filings, trading cycles, investor sentiment, and the everyday language of Indian finance. Every layer is grounded in local context, built to serve Indian participants, not global assumptions. This isn’t a “global model adapted for India.” Built in India. Hosted in India. Built for India. 🇮🇳 This is a model born from India’s capital markets. At Raise Financial Services, we’ve always believed that true financial empowerment cannot come from imported solutions. It must be created on-ground, in-context, with an Indian-first mindset. Artham is our step towards making Indian finance more intelligent, more relevant, and more accessible for retail investors, traders, institutions, and the next generation of market participants. Behind this launch is a team that stayed obsessed with one thing: relevance. Relevance to the Indian investor. Relevance to the Indian market cycle. Relevance to India’s financial future. This isn’t a concept or a test model. Artham is already live in production for millions of users: • fuzz AI (AI research) • ScanX (markets insights) • Dhan - Made for Trade (trading and investing) Proud of our team. Proud of our mission. Proud to build for India. 🇮🇳 Anirudha Basak Amazon Web Services AWS Cloud India #AWSreInvent2025

VIDEO | Saint Petersburg, Russia: When asked about the evolving dynamics between Moscow and New Delhi while the world is watching very closely as he would be travelling to India for BRICS Summit, Russian President Vladimir Putin told PTI CEO and Editor-in-Chief Vijay Joshi: "You gave the description yourself and it is true, we enjoy special privileged strategic partnership, that is how I characterise this relationship, it did not occur yesterday or 1 or 5 years ago, this is something we have been working upon for decades, back in 1947, when the Soviet Union established diplomatic relations with Indian Republic, we have been doing everything to support the establishment of a new state, a new independent state, I'm glad to say that, thanks to the hard work and the talent of the Indian people, India has made great, and important achievements in its development. All those gathered here must know that India is one of the leading economies of the world, that shows the highest rate of economic growth, this is the result of hard work that the government has been doing under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi... This rate of development has been demonstrated by India while the strategies are implemented, formulated by Modi, as the head of the government of India. We are engaged in a lot of joint efforts, we hope that in upcoming years, we will reach USD 100 billion in mutual trade... We have all the foundations to work more actively and to reach more ambitious goals, and we are not only talking about our plans in energy, including nuclear energy, new platforms will emerge... We have one of the largest investment projects into the Indian economy... Everyone knows that India is very active in pharmaceutical industry, and our economic operators are ready to propose a lot of interesting projects... We have already outlined long perspective plans that are of interest both for India and Russia." Responding to the question of India-Russia relations in the redrawn geopolitical landscape, Russian President Vladimir Putin told, "I don't think this is a case. We are glad that India is developing its relations with all the countries, it's a great country, a large economy, the largest democracy, it is only natural that it develops economy in accordance with its interest with those countries that it deems necessary. Another thing is the US is trying to put pressure on India in some matters, for example, when it comes to cooperation with Russia. Everyone understands that putting pressure on Narendra Modi is detrimental for international relations, and for bilateral relations, doesn't matter from where this pressure comes from. We don't see any negative consequences... As of today, no serious repercussions emanating from the state of affairs, we are developing our ties with India, we deem India to be a reliable partner."

Rahul Gandhi has done it AGAIN. The man with the perpetual passport in his pocket has landed in Great Nicobar, posed in front of a few trees, and produced yet another video designed for one purpose only. To sabotage a project of national, strategic and defence importance for India. This is not concern. This is a pattern. Every single project that strengthens India gets the same treatment from this man. Rafale was a scam. Vande Bharat was an insult. Chandrayaan was a stunt. The new Parliament was a coronation. CAA was anti Muslim. Sengol was theatre. Every road, every port, every airport, every defence deal that makes Bharat stronger becomes, in his vocabulary, a “scam” or a “crime.” Whose interests is he actually serving when he travels thousands of kilometres only to demoralise a project that sits at the doorstep of the Strait of Malacca, through which 30 percent of global maritime trade passes? Whose strategy is he advancing when he tries to block India’s answer to China’s String of Pearls, the very port that will end our dependence on Colombo and Singapore for transhipment? Now let us bring out the data Rahul Gandhi will never put in his videos. The total area of Great Nicobar Island is around 910 square kilometres. Out of this, 853 square kilometres, that is 92 percent of the entire island, is constitutionally protected as Tribal Reserve under the 1956 regulation. The project footprint is 166 square kilometres. That is roughly 18 percent of the island, and the tribal reserve remains overwhelmingly intact. The tribal population Rahul Gandhi is suddenly weeping for is approximately 1,200. The Shompen, around 200. The Nicobarese, around 1,000. Eight hundred square kilometres of pristine, protected forest stays exclusively reserved for them. Untouched. Guaranteed by law. And here comes the inconvenient truth that destroys his entire video. The Tribal Council itself has issued a No Objection Certificate to the Government of India. The very communities Rahul Gandhi claims to speak for have already given written consent. The Gram Sabhas have passed resolutions. Yet this man parachutes in from Delhi, ignores the actual voice of the actual tribals on the actual ground, and decides HE will speak for them in English on Twitter for his foreign audience. Why English, Rahul ji? Why is the video tailored for international consumption? Why does every Congress attack on a strategic Indian project get amplified by the exact same Western NGOs and Survival International style outfits that have a track record of stopping infrastructure in developing countries while remaining suspiciously silent about Chinese ports in Hambantota and Gwadar? The pattern is too consistent to be coincidence. When India built Sela Tunnel, he was missing. When China built villages inside Arunachal, he was silent. When Galwan happened, he hugged the Chinese narrative. When Adani built ports for India, he attacked. When Chinese ports encircle India, he says nothing. Great Nicobar is not just an island. It is India’s southernmost frontier, 145 kilometres from Indonesia, sitting on the jugular of world trade. A transhipment port here means crores of dollars stay in India instead of going to Colombo. An airport here means our Navy and Air Force project power into the Indo Pacific. A township here means India finally populates and secures a territory that was nearly lost in 2004. This is exactly why someone, somewhere, wants this project killed. And Rahul Gandhi has volunteered, as always, to be the loudest voice for that someone. 1,200 tribals have said yes. 140 crore Indians want this project. The Supreme Court appointed committee has cleared it. The NGT has cleared it. The Environment Ministry has cleared it. Only one man stands in the way, video camera in hand, lecturing the nation from a forest he visited for the first time in his life. Bharat knows this script by heart now. And Bharat is not buying it anymore.

Periods are natural. Stigma is not. If a girl misses school because there are no sanitary pads, no water and no privacy, it is not her personal problem. It is our collective failure. We live in a country where alcohol and cigarettes are sold openly, but sanitary pads are still wrapped in newspaper as if they must be hidden. Somewhere along the way, society turned a biological fact into a social taboo. A matter of science has been turned into a matter of silence. Menstrual hygiene is not charity. It is not a favour. It is not a side issue. It is a matter of health, education and equality. Above all, it is a matter of dignity. Raised this issue in Parliament today because it affects over 35 crore women and girls in India. A nation cannot call itself truly progressive if millions of girls still face fear, shame and silence for something so basic. The real test of progress is simple. The day every girl in India can go to school, live with dignity and speak about this without stigma, that will be the day we can truly say our society has moved forward.
