Modi Celebrates Article 370 Abrogation, Highlights UP's Development and Defense Corridor.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Rashtra Prerna Sthal in Lucknow on December 25, 2025, marking former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s 101st birth anniversary, and proudly stated that the BJP government tore down the wall of Article 370, ensuring India’s Constitution now fully applies in Jammu and Kashmir for unbreakable national unity. He hailed Dr Syama Prasad Mookerjee’s opposition to dual constitutions and Pandit Deen Dayal Upadhyaya’s Antyodaya vision, expanded through saturation welfare reaching 95 crore beneficiaries from 25 crore pre-2014, delivering homes, water, gas, and insurance to the poorest. Modi criticized dynastic politics for sidelining leaders like Babasaheb Ambedkar and PV Narasimha Rao, while spotlighting Uttar Pradesh’s transformation via Ram Mandir, Kashi Vishwanath Dham, and the defense corridor now manufacturing BrahMos missiles in Lucknow, poised to shine globally in defense production.
