He started his speech by reciting 'Lord Jagannath' twice. He expressed happiness saying that he was in the land of Lord Ram (Ayodhya) yesterday and came to Lord Jagannath today. "I am very fortunate that I was talking to the people in the land of Lord of Ram yesterday and came to you in the land of Lord Jagannath today,"

During his almost 30-minute energizing speech, the Prime Minister termed himself as the son of Lord Jagannath. 

"This son of Lord Jagannath is committed to taking Odisha to new heights. You cast your votes for the BJP, the son of Lord Jagannath will make Odisha the most developed State in just five years," said the Prime Minister. 

Terming the manifesto of the Odisha unit of BJP as Modi's guarantee, the Prime Minister said Modi does what he promises.  However, the benefits of all the Central schemes didn't reach the people of Odisha due to three major reasons. 

"Modi has sent the highest amount of budgetary support to Odisha. Modi has sent money for the construction of roads in villages and the supply of tapped water to each household. But the BJD government here failed to utilize funds. It put BJD levels on Central schemes. It also misappropriated Central funds," pointed out Modi.

The State should also have a BJP government to implement Central schemes, he stressed. 

Urging people to vote for the BJP's LS and Assembly candidates for a double-engine government, Modi said, "This son of Lord Jagannath assures to implement the all-benefitting Ayusman Bharat Yojana and all assurances made in the State BJP's Manifesto within days of Modi government is formed," said Modi. 

He concluded his speech by requesting people present at the Vijay Sankalpa Samavesh to go to their neighbors and tell them that Modi had come and wished them "Jay Jagannath'.  

"This way I will get their blessing," Prime Minister said.
