Prime Minister states that committing crimes against women is unforgivable.

On Sunday, during a gathering in Jalgaon, Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed his strong views on crimes against women, stating that they are an unpardonable sin and the guilty must not be spared. This comes in the wake of recent protests over the brutal rape and murder of a trainee doctor in Kolkata and the sexual abuse of two four-year-old girls in Badlapur.

Modi emphasized that the safety of women should be a top priority for the country and stated that he has consistently raised this issue from the Red Fort. He acknowledged the pain and anger felt by women and stressed that it is the responsibility of both society and the government to protect their lives and dignity.

The Prime Minister also urged all political parties and state governments to take strict action against those involved in crimes against women. He emphasized that even those who aid the perpetrators should not be spared and called for accountability at all levels, be it hospitals, schools, government systems or the police.

Modi also highlighted the efforts of his government in empowering women in the past 10 years, stating that they have done more than all previous regimes since Independence. He stated that while less than Rs 25,000 crore loans were given to women self-help groups till 2014, his government has provided Rs 9 lakh crore in the last 10 years.

During his interaction with the Lakhpati Didis (women who earn a yearly income of more than one lakh rupees) in Jalgaon, Modi released a revolving fund of Rs 2,500 crore that will benefit 48 lakh members of 4.3 lakh self-help groups. He emphasized that this scheme is not just about increasing the income of women, but also about empowering future generations.

Modi also highlighted the role of women in India's progress and stated that they are essential for the country to become the third-largest economy in the world. However, he acknowledged that this was not the case a few years ago, as women did not have access to property or loans from banks. He stated that his government has taken decisions in the interest of women and has made one crore Lakhpati Didis in the past 10 years. In just two months, 11 lakh more women have been added to this list.

The Prime Minister also expressed his grief over the recent Nepal bus accident, which claimed the lives of 14 people from Jalgaon district. He assured the people that the government is taking necessary steps to help the victims and their families.

Modi also spoke about his recent visit to Poland and the respect people there have for Maharashtra. He mentioned the Kolhapur settlement that housed Polish refugees, including women and children, during World War II and stated that the Polish people hold a special regard for the people of Maharashtra for their generosity.

In conclusion, Modi stressed the importance of a stable and prosperous government in Maharashtra and urged the people to re-elect the BJP-led Mahayuti government for years to come. He emphasized that the state's future lies in more investment and job growth.
