In Bihar, PM Modi will address a public meeting in Motihari around 11:30 am, where projects worth more than ₹7,200 crore will be either inaugurated or launched. These include software technology parks, road infrastructure initiatives, and the introduction of four new Amrit Bharat trains.

These works cover Software Technology Parks, four new Amrit Bharat trains, road projects and more.”
Later in the day, PM Modi will visit Durgapur in West Bengal, where he will inaugurate and lay foundation stones for projects worth over ₹5,000 crore. These span across critical sectors like oil and gas, power, railways, and roads.
