Prime Minister Narendra Modi who completed 11 years in office said that the NDA government has brought significant changes in the country and promised continued progress in his current term. In a post on X, he expressed pride in collective achievements while reiterating the government's commitment to building a ‘Viksit Bharat’ (Developed India).
The Prime Minister’s social media outreach highlighted various government initiatives, with a particular focus on empowering OBCs, tribals, Dalits, and women. A shared link pointed out that 60% of current Union ministers belong to SC, ST, and OBC categories, the highest-ever representation for these marginalised groups in the Union Council of Ministers. This message aimed to underscore the government's social justice credentials amid opposition claims of working against these communities. Modi also affirmed that the NDA government's emphasis on women empowerment has redefined women-led development. He further stated that under his 11-year leadership, India has not only become the fastest-growing major economy but also a crucial global voice on critical issues like climate action and digital innovation.
Home Minister Amit Shah lauded Modi's 11 years as a golden period of public service, citing significant milestones in economic revival, social justice, cultural pride, and national security. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh affirmed India's enhanced preparedness and unwavering resolve to protect its territorial integrity. Shah also highlighted a positive shift in the security landscape, noting a decline in Naxalism, and established peace in Jammu & Kashmir and the Northeast. He asserted that India now responds to terrorist attacks by striking perpetrators in their own backyard. This claim is supported by data indicating a 69% fall in terrorism-related incidents in J&K and a 68% drop in resulting deaths between 2014 and 2024, compared to the preceding decade. Similarly, Naxalism-hit regions saw a 53% reduction in incidents and over 70% fewer deaths in the 2014-2024 period. Lok Janshakti Party leader Chirag Paswan also echoed these sentiments on X, praising the new era of economic rejuvenation and national security.
