Here are the Takeaways from PM's Rally in Bhubaneswar:

• "I have got the opportunity again to come to Odisha and serve the people. People are celebrating Anant Chaturdashi and Vishwakarma Puja today. India is the only country that celebrates hardwork and skills. I extend my greetings to everyone."
• "Ganesh Utsav is being celebrated in the country. Lord Ganpati is being given a farewell. It is also Anant Chaturdashi. Vishwakarma Pooja is also today... I got the opportunity to start the SUBHDRA scheme for my sisters and mothers on such a huge day... Laying foundation stone and inauguration of projects worth thousands of crores of rupees have been done today...  I had said that if the double-engine government would be formed then Odisha will reach new heights of development..."
• "Ganesh Utsav is not just matter of faith for country, it played important role in freedom movement."
• "Before coming here, I went to the home of an Adivasi family to attend their Grih Pravesh event... My sister in that family gave me Khiri to eat. And when I was eating that Khiri, it was obvious that I missed my mother. When my mother was alive, I always used to visit her on my birthday to seek her blessings. My mother used to feed me 'Gud' (jaggery) by hand. She is not there anymore but my Adivasi mother fed me Kheer and gave me birthday blessings..."
• "When the BJP -led government was formed in Odisha , I came here during the oath-taking (of the CM). This is my first visit to Odisha after that. I said at that time that if the double-engine government is formed here then Odisha will move forward on the path of development. Every dream of poor, Dalit, Adivasi families will get fulfilled."
• "More than 1 crore women will be able to take advantage of ‘Subhadra Yojana’. Rs 50,000 (Rs 10,000 per year) will be transferred to their bank accounts directly. RBI digital currency pilot project has also been linked to this yojana. This is the first such initiative."
• "Even today, those who want to divide society have problems with Ganesh Utsav."
