On Tuesday 2 July Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently addressed the Lok Sabha in response to the Motion of Thanks on the President’s address. Despite opposition sloganeering, he highlighted several key points:
Mandate of the People: PM Modi acknowledged that the public’s mandate during the world’s largest election campaign was in favor of his government. He emphasized the defeat of those who spread continuous lies.
Resolve for ‘Viksit Bharat’: President Murmu’s address underscored the government’s commitment to building a developed India (‘Viksit Bharat’) and addressing critical issues.
Anti-Corruption Stance: The government’s zero tolerance against corruption received widespread support. Their guiding principle has been ‘India first.’
Balancing Justice and Appeasement: PM Modi emphasized justice for all and rejected appeasement politics. The focus has been on ‘santushtikaran’ (contentment) rather than ‘tushtikaran’ (appeasement).
Transformational Era: The country emerged from despair in 2014, electing the government that initiated an era of transformation.
Despite the challenges, PM Modi assured tireless efforts to fulfill the resolve for a prosperous India. The speech reflected the government’s commitment to progress and inclusivity.
