PM Modi's Sonipat visit on October 17 likely to be cancelled: Sources

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's October 17 visit to Sonipat for BJP Haryana government's one-year celebration may be cancelled according to official sources

"Prime Minister Narendra Modi is coming to Haryana on October 17... The Prime Minister loves and cares for the people of Haryana - Nayab Singh Saini"

New Delhi, October 14

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Sonipat on 17 October, on the occasion of the completion of one year of the BJP-led Haryana government, is likely to be cancelled, according to sources.

PM Modi was scheduled to attend the event at Rai Education City in Sonipat and present new development initiatives for the state.

Meanwhile, a day earlier, Saini inspected the programme site and provided directions to Deputy Commissioner Sushil Sarwan regarding the main stage and other arrangements prior to the PM's visit. Thereafter, he held a meeting with officials and instructed them to complete all arrangements for the programme within the stipulated time. Interacting with the media, he said that the BJP has formed the government in Haryana for the third time.

"Prime Minister Narendra Modi is coming to Haryana on October 17... The Prime Minister loves and cares for the people of Haryana. For the third consecutive time, our government has been formed in Haryana. Our government has worked continuously in Haryana without any discrimination. The previous government operated on the basis of regionalism and family. Many areas were left behind in development during their tenure. This BJP government of 11 years is moving forward continuously with the support of all, development of all, and efforts for all," he earlier told reporters.

Saini also said that beneficiaries of various schemes will attend this programme. Accordingly, different sectors have been created at the venue for public seating.

Earlier on Saturday, Saini said that the 'Pradhan Mantri Dhan-Dhanya Krishi Yojana' and 'Dalhan Atmanirbharta Mission' will play a pivotal role in strengthening and making agriculture self-reliant, thereby transforming the lives of farmers. He said that the Pradhan Mantri Dhan -Dhanya Krishi Yojana has been launched in 100 districts across the country, including Haryana's Nuh district.

The Chief Minister, along with Cabinet Ministers, MLAs, and farmers, watched and listened to the live address of Prime Minister Narendra Modi from New Delhi through video conferencing. The Prime Minister launched the 'Pradhan Mantri Dhan-Dhanya Krishi Yojana' and 'Dalhan Atmanirbharta Mission' at an event held at the National Agricultural Science Complex, Pusa, New Delhi. He also inaugurated and laid the foundation stones for more than 1,100 agricultural projects worth Rs 42,000 crore under the Agriculture Infrastructure Fund, as well as the Animal Husbandry, Fisheries, and Food Processing sectors.

The agricultural schemes mentioned here sound promising for our farmers. Whether PM visits or not, what matters is that these initiatives reach the actual beneficiaries in villages.

As someone working in agricultural development, I appreciate the focus on making farming self-reliant. The Dalhan Atmanirbharta Mission could be transformative if implemented properly.

So much preparation went into this event! The officials must have worked really hard. Hope the cancellation doesn't mean wasted resources. Maybe they can use the venue for some other public welfare program?

While I support the government's agricultural initiatives, I wish there was more transparency about why such important visits get cancelled last minute. The public deserves to know the reasons.

PM's security is paramount. If there are genuine security concerns or other important national commitments, cancellation is understandable. Jai Hind! 🇮🇳

The farmers in Haryana have been waiting for such schemes. Hope the cancellation doesn't delay the implementation of these agricultural projects. Our annadata needs support! 🌾
