FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF MODI GOVERNMENT
Narain Kataria in New York
On the occasion of the First Anniversary of Modi Government, I
am going to inform you in nutshell as to what actions Modi Government has taken
to make India economically prosperous and militarily strong nation. Here are some of the important initiatives
taken by it.
Under the Jan Dhan Yojna, 115 million poor people have opened
bank accounts which was considered almost impossible for them one year ago. One hundred Smart Cities have been
planned. Three Mega Life Insurance and
Pension Projects have been set in motions.
In order to reduce corruption Digital India Project has been
launched. Due to that Transparency
International has announced that in the 18
years, this is the first time that India
ranks below China in corruption list.
India has also improved in the index, jumping 10 places.
The goal of the “Make In India” Project is to create millions of
jobs for Indians, make India a manufacturing hub, bring billions of dollars in
investment to India and make India self-sufficient in the field of arms
manufacturing.
When UPA Government led by Sonia Gandhi and its cohorts was in
power, we used to hear every other day about one scam or the other; Bofors
Scam, Commonwealth Games Scam, Coal Scam, Adardsh Scam, 2G Spectrum
Scam, and other scams. Their job was to plunder poor Indians. But
after the installation of Modi Government at the Center we have not heard even
one of such scams. For this achievement, Modi Government deserves
our heartiest adoration.
As a result of this, inflation is at all time low. U.N. World Economic Report says that India’s
economy is projected to grow at 7.6% this year and 7.7% in 2016 overtaking
China. There are more than 330 billion
dollars in foreign reserves.
Modi has put India on the track of a super power. Modi has changed India from a very weak
country to an assertive nation. All over
the world people are talking about the progress made by India in such a short
period. In the last one year, the world’s perception
about India has been completely metamorphosed.
World is watching at India’s progress with amazement and wonder. The Times of India survey of May 16th says
that Namo remains the best bet for India but he does not have the magic
wand. Dr. Natwar Singh, former Foreign
Minister says that Narendra Modi is the
real leader whereas Dr. Manmohand Singh was not a leader at all. Thus, Modi has become very popular Prime
Minister in India. Modi has a total
number of 28 million followers on Facebook; out of which 12 millions joined him this year.
Senior American expert Rick Rossow at the Center for Strategic
Studies says that Modi’s first year in the office was the best for India in terms
of economic recovery. Christine Lagarde of International Monetary Fund says that India
is fuelling global economic growth.
Modi has created confidence, respectability and pride in Indians about their culture, civilization
and capability. Indians all over the
world feel that they are second to none.
People are looking towards Modi as the harbinger of hope. He has used his consummate skills and
untiring efforts to re-energize and reinvigorated their inner spirit and patriotism. He is also using the potential of NRIs to
develop Indian economy.
Modi has allotted 8 billion dollars for construction of
warships. He has approved six nuclear
submarines for Indian Navy to combat the influence of Chinese Navy in the Indian Ocean. In view of the increased threat from
Pakistan, a new naval base named after Sardar Patel near Porbandar in Gujarat has been planned to strengthen
surveillance and security apparatus in
the region. In addition to it,
India is developing Agni 6 missile and ICBM guidance system like China
against warships and submarines.
Modi Government is building roads in the Himalayas. BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles have been
given to Indian army to counter Chinese in the North and North East India. These missiles have the capability to hit the
targets hidden behind mountains.
In addition to that India is developing two new Islands in the
Indian Ocean from military point of view.
Modi has established cordial relations with America, Russia, UK,
France, Germany, Canada, China, Israel, Japan, Australia, South Korea and other
countries. He has signed agreement with
China worth 22 billion dollars. He is
the first Indian leader who is handling China with great confidence and
courage. South Korea has pledged $10 billions for infrastructure
projects in India. Japan will invest 35
billion dollars over the period of five years.
Modi is getting 36 jet fighters from France, 3000 metric tons of uranium from Canada and 500 tons of uranium
from Australia.
Russia has agreed to build ten more nuclear reactors in India. America will supply India with an
Aircraft Carrier equipped with most
modern missiles guidance system. Israel
in partnership with India is building most advanced anti-warship missiles. As a result, soon India will be a great military
giant in the world.
Under Modi’s leadership, India government is going in for
intelligence-packed “targeted kills” against terrorists in Jammu & Kashmir
while military is dominating the line of control with Pakistan, forcing 30%
drop in both cross-border ceasefire
violations as well as infiltration bids, reports The Times of India, dated May
22nd , 2015.
Thus Modi has repositioned himself at the center-stage of the
world. Before Modi’s arrival on the
scene, India was being ruled by minorities led by Sonia Gandhi in collaboration with the deadly
combination of Islamists and Marxists forces.
Even though Hindus are the backbone of India – about 80% - they were
treated as second class citizens in their own country. They were denigrated, humiliated, demoralized
and terrorized into submission. Had Indian people not voted Modi to power, radical Islamists supported by de-Hinduized corrupt and selfish Hindu leaders, would have almost obliterated
Hinduism from the Indian soil in due course of time.
Now India is progressing in all directions with leaps and bounds. However, the threat to India’s internal
security from radical Islamists and Jihadists still persists. At the moment crafty radical jihadists are lying low. They are down but not yet out. They have changed their strategy but not
their goals.
Muslim population in India after the Partition of India has more
than doubled. This is very dangerous
trend. So far no serious action seems to
have been taken by Modi Government to smash the insidious designs of Jihadists who are secretly planning to
balkanize and Islamize India.
Modi Government will, however, be well advised to devise solid strategies at
an early date to crush the diabolical designs of anti-national forces before
they assume an alarming proportion to destabilize India. Jai Ho.
