In Indian politics, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been successful in making a special identity in Indian politics by giving the slogan of everyone’s support, everyone’s development. Talking about the strength of the party, Narendra Modi has done amazing work in building the Bharatiya Janata Party at the national level. Narendra Modi has played an important role in the conduct of elections at all levels across the country. He expanded the party and increased its mass base by carrying forward the tradition of BJP’s ancestors. Bharatiya Janata Party is the number one party in the country today. Also it is known as the political party with the largest membership in the world. Modi government has strengthened the journey from glorious India to modern India in its 9 years tenure.
Charaiveti Charaiveti BJP’s travel mantra
It is noteworthy that in the year 1984, BJP had only two members in the Lok Sabha. In the 2014 Lok Sabha elections, the BJP had won 282 seats. The specialty of this election was that after three decades a party got absolute majority. After this, in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the BJP won 303 seats, which was the highest number of seats won by any party. When Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister for the first time, there was BJP government in only seven states of the country. The BJP had chief ministers in Gujarat, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Goa, while the BJP shared power with the Shiromani Akali Dal in Punjab and the TDP in Andhra Pradesh. In the year 2018, BJP was at its peak. At that time BJP and its allies were in power in 21 states. This proves that today BJP remains at the center of power only because of great and influential personality and skill of Modi ji. In fact, Modi ji has worked tirelessly in bringing the BJP to power in the states as well.
It is also worth mentioning that after Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister, the thing called opposition also almost disappeared in the country. The Congress, which ruled the country for the longest time, also kept shrinking. This is the situation not only in the country but in all the states where the BJP is in power. No party seems to be able to stand up to the BJP. All parties have collapsed in front of Modi ji’s good governance and skills. The opposition does not have any such issue by which it can corner the ruling party. Left parties have also become extinct.
historical decision making prime minister
Narendra Modi is such a Prime Minister of the country, who surprised everyone by taking a historic decision without any fear. It is a proof of his fearless personality that his government repealed Article-370 and Article-35A. This led to the complete integration of Jammu and Kashmir with the rest of the country. For almost 70 years, this temporary article had deprived the people of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh of their fundamental rights. Both these articles were a major hindrance in the development of the region. Prime Minister Narendra Modi while addressing the nation had said that Article-370 gave Jammu and Kashmir only terrorism, separatism, corruption and familyism for decades. After the removal of this article, there is full confidence that the union territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh will move forward rapidly on the path of development.
Role in construction of Ram temple
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has played an important role in the construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya, the birthplace of Lord Shri Ram. He had laid the foundation stone of the Ram temple at the Ram Janmabhoomi in Ayodhya. This was the first time after the Bhoomi Poojan for the construction of Ram temple, when Modi ji came to Ayodhya. He took special interest in the construction works of Ram Mandir and also supervised the works. He kept taking information about the progress of the work from time to time. It is notable that Narendra Modi played an important role in the Rath Yatra started by LK Advani. He led the Rath Yatra in Gujarat. During the Ram Janmabhoomi movement, he mobilized support for the movement by roaming from village to village. He was also instrumental in the signature campaign. Due to his efforts, the construction work of Ram temple could start in Ayodhya.
Protection and promotion of religion and culture
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has resolved to beautify the historical heritage of religious and cultural importance of the country. In this episode, he has done many important works to give grandeur to Kashi, the city of Lord Shankar. Prime Minister Narendra Modi says that the welcome to the devotees at the Baba Vishwanath Temple in Kashi should be such that they get excited to come here again and again and encourage others too. He got the work started by laying the foundation stone of the Baba Vishwanath Temple Corridor in Kashi. He is renovating places of historical and religious importance across the country and along with this he is paying special attention to the development and beautification of religious places. The reconstruction work of Kedarnath is going on at a fast pace. Work is also going on in Badrinath under the new master plan. These religious places are symbols of the glorious culture of our country. They are the means of keeping our culture alive in the future, they are also the conductors of culture.
public welfare work
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is desirous of seeing the life of even the last person of the country happy and prosperous. For this they are constantly striving. Under his rule, the country has progressed in almost all the fields. The Modi government has done commendable and commendable work in the fields of agriculture, industry, employment, housing, transport, electricity, drinking water, education, medicine, science, security system, religion, culture and environment etc. Scholarship is being provided to the students. Financial assistance is being provided to old people, widows and disabled people in the form of pension. Arrangements have also been made by the government for the maintenance of orphan children. The government is also providing financial assistance to the families where there is no earning person. Grant is being provided for the marriage of girls from poor families and persons with disabilities. The government is also paying special attention to the conservation of destitute cattle. The government is also working in the field of pollution control, so that people can get a clean environment. Special attention is also being paid to cleanliness. Providing ration to about 80 crore people of the country during the dreaded Covid pandemic, providing medical facilities to the victims and running a vaccination campaign to keep all the countrymen safe from Covid are such works which show the success of the Modi government.
public relations campaign
A public relations campaign is being run by the BJP from May 30 to June 30 to acquaint the public with the achievements of the Modi government. Various programs are being organized under the public relations campaign. The party has appealed to the workers to actively participate in it.
There is no doubt that Indian culture is getting back its lost glory during the rule of Narendra Modi. In its 9 years tenure, the Modi government has raised the name of the country in the world. Modi ji’s works are being appreciated not only in the country, but at the global level.
