PM Modi to Launch Projects, Address Rally in Rajasthan
The Statesman Delhi
|May 21, 2025
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be on a day-long visit on Thursday to Deshnoke town in Rajasthan's Bikaner district, a township in the Indo-Pak border region of the state.
Deshnoke is about 200 kilometers from the international border.
Though the Prime Minister's itinerary is packed with programmes to inaugurate multiple development projects, his visit to the area assumes significance as it will be his first to the Indo-Pak border region in the state and his second landing at an Indian Air Force base since India's May 7 strikes on terror launchpads in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
The Nal airport where the Prime Minister will land, doubles as an IAF station and was one of the sites targeted during the recent cross-border tensions.
Meanwhile, the Prime Minister will lay the foundation stone, and inaugurate multiple development projects worth over Rs 26,000 crore in Palana, Bikaner. He will also address a public function in Palana.
