Prime Minister Modi Announces Ten New Medical Colleges in Maharashtra

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has announced the establishment of ten new medical colleges in the state of Maharashtra. The announcement, made on October 9, 2024, highlights the Indian government’s continued efforts to bolster educational and healthcare infrastructure in the region. “Maharashtra is now on a fast track of development,” Modi stated during his address.

In addition to the educational announcements, Modi took the opportunity to address political dynamics concerning the Haryana elections. The Prime Minister criticized the Congress party, accusing it of employing divisive tactics. “The Dalits have sensed the dangerous intentions of Congress,” Modi remarked, further alleging that the party operates on a “divide and rule” philosophy.

In a related development, Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut questioned the Congress’s defeat in recent elections, attributing it to their strategic errors. Raut called on Congress to clarify its role in Maharashtra’s political landscape and to consider declaring a face from the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) as the chief ministerial candidate. These statements have further complicated the political situation in Maharashtra.
