As is evident i am staunch supporter of Narendra Modi and often being criticized from friends & family alike. After an year of governance my belief is only reinforced in his approach towards governance and well being of countrymen in particular. This guy was persecuted for years and every possible trick in the book was employed to inflict & malign his otherwise credible reputation . So much of antipathy against a person that our paid media went overboard in blemishing his image although i somehow believe the main objective of this coterie of anti nationalists was to defame and thus bring down Vajpayee ji's govt and Gujrat riot was just a pretext for them to exploit . The same person who faced persecution and insult for consecutive years nonstop and was ridiculed came back strongly is not only astonishing but portrays strength of Modi's character causing heartburn to such evil power brokers. Now coming back to one year of scrutinizing govt performance is equally important, but isn't it startling that some started looking for "Acchhe Din" 24 hours after oath taking ceremony concluded . People were passing satirical comments to the extent of being overly critical too early. Either the aspirations of people were raked too high or is simply synonymous of upright negativity seeped in our society . One of my friend asked me the same to which surging stock markets came to my rescue. I often wonder have we elected a prime minister or a magician with a wand to make vanish all problems compounding for decades. May i ask a simple question hopefully Modi comes good of all the promises he made but if not what other option do we have ? didn't we know and saw the performance of opposition for 68 years ? Some people might bat for Kejriwal as another viable option but in my opinion Kejriwal is a natural leader for those with a bullying sense of grievance & entitlement. Modi for those with a purpose of action and Gujarat governance and one year performance is a testimony to it .
Now i will try to highlight few of Modi government's achievements the first thing he did is to bring credibility and dignity back to PMO's office which was unbelievably eroded under UPA govt misgovernance where NAC led by UPA chairperson ruled without accountability thus undermining PMO. Congress accuses Modi of centralising power but its far better than effete ManMohan Singh while Sonia's unconstitutional NAC grabbed all power! In my belief perception is important ,now PM is more visible and seems to be the harbinger of change . Such was the apathy of previous government towards country's image that the then foreign minister S.M Krishna read Portuguese minister speech at U.N. Today things have incredibly changed for better, whether rescuing compatriots or foreign nationals from war torn country or prompt action to help Nepalese people in distress is concerned. On home front, formulating laws to bring black money has slowly yielded results, befitting reply to adversaries has helped in containing terrorism with no major attack till now. One of the biggest achievement of incumbent govt is corruption free governance that riddled our country enormously . Auctioning of 2G spectrum and coal mines in transparent environment is a welcome relief . No country can truly thrive until unless social sector change isn't visible , uplifting standard of life of the last man standing should be the ultimate goal and achievement of govt , keeping this in mind i totally endorse Swachta Abyan of govt to clean not only major rivers and cities but to stop people from defecating in open which is a stigma and butt of jokes for country. It's a nobel gesture & laudable to provide clean environment that has been neglected for too long . Affordable housing , continuous power supply ,providing clean drinking water and communally free environment deserves praise & appreciation .
But its too early to give full marks to incumbent govt although the pace and direction its moving in is noteworthy and exudes confidence as the path is treacherous i can conclude by nobel words of Martin Luther King Jr. " "Carve a tunnel of hope through the dark mountain of disappointment."
