New Delhi, September 14, 2025: Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said in Assam that there are conspiracies underway to alter the demographics of border regions through infiltration and this poses a serious threat to national security, therefore, a nationwide Demography Mission is now being launched.
Modi while laying the foundation stone and inaugurating development works worth around Rs 6,500 crore in Darrang, Assam today, described Assam as a land of patriots, and praised its significant role in defending the nation from foreign invaders and in the sacrifices made during the freedom struggle.
Standing on this sacred land of martyrs, Modi stated that it is necessary to expose another act of opposition. He alleged that the opposition, for its political interests, aligns itself with individuals and ideologies that are anti-India.
Referring to Operation Sindoor, he claimed that even during this mission, such tendencies were evident. He remarked that when opposition dispensation was in power, the country suffered from widespread terrorism while the opposition party remained silent. In contrast, he stated that today, under the current government, the Indian Army conducts operations like Sindoor, eliminating terror masterminds across Pakistan.
He criticised the opposition for siding with Pakistan’s army instead of India’s, and of promoting the agenda of those who shelter terrorists. He asserted that Pakistan’s falsehoods become the opposition’s narrative, and urged the public to remain vigilant against the opposition parties.
The Prime Minister stated that for opposition, the interests of its vote bank have always taken precedence over national interest. He alleged that the opposition has now become a major protector of anti-national elements and infiltrators.
He claimed that during its tenure in power, the opposition actively encouraged infiltration and now seeks to permanently settle infiltrators in India.
Affirming that their government will not allow infiltrators to seize control over the nation’s resources and assets, the Prime Minister stated that the rights of India’s farmers, youth, and tribal communities will not be compromised under any circumstances.
He expressed concern over the atrocities committed by infiltrators against mothers, sisters, and daughters, declaring that such acts will not be tolerated.
Modi warned of ongoing conspiracies to alter the demographic composition of border regions through infiltration, describing it as a grave threat to national security. In response, he announced the launch of a nationwide Demography Mission.
He reiterated their commitment to protecting the country from infiltrators and ensuring their complete removal from Indian soil.
Chief Minister of Assam Himanta Biswa Sarma, Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal were present among other dignitaries at the event.
