Reports said that his speech may cover significant economic or social measures before the festive season. It could also include a “strong global message” following Operation Sindoor, addressing US tariffs and the H-1B visa issue. The address, his first since turning 75, may also touch on new policy and global updates.

I think it will be on India’s need to be self-sufficient (H-1B etc as backdrop) and up its game in innovation and enterprise.
If that is so, it will be nice if he announces measures to further boost business and startups.…

Is it GST reforms?
Donald Trump threats?
In his last address to the nation was on May 12, 2025, the PM had briefed the people about Operation Sindoor, the counterstrike after the terror attack in Pahalgam
