New Delhi: Union home minister Amit Shah on Wednesday said 12 years of Prime Minister Narendra Modi have been about restoring India’s pride, cultural renaissance and freeing the nation from the mentality of servitude.
Congratulating the prime minister on achieving the “historic milestone” of serving the people as the longest-serving elected prime minister of the country, Shah said the “new India is confidently establishing its identity on every global platform, and the world is witnessing the rise of a capable, powerful, and new India.”
Listing out major achievements on X in Hindi, Shah said the new Parliament was constructed, three new laws were implemented, the new education policy paved the way for medical and engineering education in mother tongues, and Atmanirbhar Bharat became the resolve of every Indian.
“In these 12 years, on one hand, the country’s borders were secured, Article 370 was abrogated from Kashmir, the Ram Temple was built, Naxalism was eradicated, and terrorism was reined in with a befitting response to every terror incident; on the other hand, the collective strength of the nation learned to take pride in its heritage, culture, and capabilities by emerging from feelings of inferiority,” he said.
Shah said ensuring the safety of the citizens and restoring their lost self-respect and honour is Prime Minister Modi’s greatest achievement.
Modi on Wednesday became the longest-serving elected prime minister of India in his third consecutive term, breaking the record of 4,398-day tenure of the first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru.
