Under PM Modi’s successful leadership, the country is coming together to realize the dream of "One India Great India", says UP CM Yogi Adityanath.

The birth anniversary of Lord Vishwakarma, the architect of this universe, and the birthday of our illustrious prime minister, the architect of a better India, are on the same day. What a beautiful coincidence!

Great leaders not only dedicate themselves to a larger goal, but also create institutions and systems to achieve that goal.

In the past nine and a half years, we have had a first-hand experience of the embodiment of this greatness in PMNarendra Modi.
Prior to 2014, there was a feeling of disgust among the people towards the system because of the rot that had set in for a prolonged period of corruption, appeasement and nepotism. The welfare schemes of the government were selective, the word 'socialism' was reduced to ‘familyism’ and the slogan of 'Garibi Hatao' to 'eliminating the poor'.

Amid this gloom and despair, the people decided to bring about a radical change in the system by electing a government led by Modiji in 2014. He rekindled the hope of people for a bright future and in him they saw the force that could meet their expectations, fulfil their aspirations and realize their dreams.

Undoubtedly, this was the beginning of India's social, economic, political and cultural renaissance. It is the specialty of his leadership that Modiji made all 140 crore countrymen a part of his mission, his ‘yagya’. The importance of India's ‘trinity’ of demography, democracy and diversity was explained to every countryman. People were introduced to India’s true and untapped potential.
The creation of a 'new India' became possible only as a result of this ‘yagya’ of national awakening. It is a miracle of Modi ji's successful leadership that India, divided into different religions, sects, beliefs, languages and thoughts, is coming together to realize the dream of 'One India Great India'.

Today, India is free from the curse of Article 370 in Kashmir. Muslim sisters are free from any medieval abomination like triple talaq. Every crop of every farmer is insured. Every poor person has the blessing of 'Ayushman' and the unparalleled happiness of having his own house.

'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas’ is the soul of this new work culture. In this new system that imbibes the mantra of 'Antyodaya to Sarvodaya', the person at the last rung of the society is the top priority of the government. For the first time, agriculture and farmers are at the centre of political discussion. There is confidence in the government among the common people. Probably Goswami Tulsidas ji has given the name 'Ram Rajya' for such a system.

In a country that spent 70 years under the shadow of monarchy in the form of dynastic politics, it was unimaginable that a Prime Minister would ever wash the feet of sanitation workers. But the entire country witnessed this in Prayagraj when Modiji washed the feet of sanitation workers with a sense of gratitude.

In an epidemic like Covid, the entire country came together and remained disciplined at every call of its leader. This is possible only when the people have an unshakeable faith in the policies and intentions of their leadership. Modi ji is the only leader to earn this capital in post-independence India. The PM’s address to the countrymen as 'My family' from the ramparts of the historic Red Fort fills the mind of every Indian with a sense of belonging.

If we look closely at Modi ji's personality, we find a reflection of a beautiful coordination of the qualities of both practicality and idealism. He is a statesman and also has the purity and innocence of a child. Every step of his journey has been full of challenges and struggles. It is the unique personality of Modi ji that makes him consider challenges as opportunities, overcome every obstacle and continuously move forward to fulfil his objectives.

The concept of our PM, who has a vision of faith and economy, has been to carry development and heritage together. After waiting for 500 years, Shri Ram Janmabhoomi temple in Awadhpuri is ready to be inaugurated. The whole world is watching Ayodhya. Today, much awaited works like Sri Kashi Vishwanath Dham, revival of Kedarnath Dham as well as ‘ Mahakal ka Mahalok’ in Ujjain have given an opportunity to the faith that has been hurt for centuries to blossom again.

This past decade under the leadership of PM Modi has been a period of restoration of India's glory. Recently a new Parliament building has been inaugurated in the country.

In the past nine and a half years, not only us Indians, but the entire world has been a witness to the creation of a 'New India' and is watching 'Bharat Uday' (emergence of Bharat) on Mars, Moon and Sun with great eagerness.

Today, wherever there is a humanitarian crisis, the world looks towards PM Modi with hope. The success of the recently concluded G-20 under his visionary leadership has placed India at the centre of the new world order.

Under his guidance, the entire India has adopted the great resolutions of the Amrit Kaal. The ‘Panch Pran' (five pledges) proclaimed from the ramparts of the Red Fort is the soul of these resolutions. The entire country is moving forward with a united voice and a united spirit for their fulfilment. The dream of 'self-reliant India' and 'developed India' is now closer to becoming a reality.

વડાપ્રધાન મોદી આધુનિક યુગના 'ભગીરથ' છે
September 17, 2024

In the 21st century, India has taken on a key role in shaping the new world order. With global politics now multipolar, no major international group feels complete without India's presence. From disaster relief to forging global policy consensus, the world turns to India.

The visionary behind India's rise as a global leader over the past decade is our esteemed Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi.

Whether it's mediating in the Russia-Ukraine conflict or addressing crises in the West Asia, India, under PM Modi, is central to resolving international matters.

Today, both Indians and world powers alike place their trust in the belief that "If PM Modi is at helm, anything is possible", seeing his leadership as the ‘guarantee' of solutions.

In the context of India, PM Modi is seen as a modern-day ‘Bhageerath', guiding the nation toward achieving goals, solving challenges, and fulfilling aspirations.

Whether it's a woman farmer working in a remote field, a young entrepreneur in a tech company, a soldier guarding the nation's borders, or an Indian living abroad, all share unwavering trust in the PM's policies, vision, and decisions. This trust empowers the PM to make bold and decisive moves.

A prime example is the abrogation of Articles 370 and 35A, once considered impossible. Initially, there was resistance, but today Article 370 and 35A are history. Modi's determination has ended the era of "two flags, two constitutions" in Kashmir.


Now, instead of unrest, we see progress — new industries are springing up, and feats of engineering like the Chenab railway bridge, taller than the Eiffel Tower, are being realized. J&K is now on the path of development, and the world is watching. The people of this new Kashmir are prepared for upcoming assembly elections, where the PM's vision of nationalism, good governance, and development is set to triumph.

The PM has ignited a cultural renaissance in India. After a 500-year wait, India's spiritual and cultural aspirations have been realized with the consecration of Shri Ram Lalla at the grand new temple in Ayodhya and the renovation of Shri Kashi Vishwanath temple.

Since 2014, India has freed itself from the grip of political parties that thrived on casteism, corruption, and appeasement. Transparent and corruption-free execution of govt schemes has significantly improved the daily lives of common people.

Behind this transformation is a new work culture driven by the principle of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas'. At the core of this philosophy, which aims for ‘Antyodaya se Sarvodaya' (uplift of the last person leading to the uplift of all), is the priority given to the marginalised. For the first time, agriculture and farmers have become central to political discussions, with benefits from schemes like crop insurance, MSP, subsidies, and mechanized farming reaching farmers without discrimination.

The PM has inspired people to aspire for more, allowing every Indian to actively participate in the nation's development during this ‘Amrit Kaal'. The PM made two significant decisions within the first three months of his third term – extending Ayushman health coverage to all senior citizens over 70 and introducing the ‘Unified Pension Scheme' to safeguard public interests. The decisions have ushered in a new era of economic security and hope.

Over the past decade, the implementation of JAM — Jan Dhan, Aadhar, and Mobile — has eradicated systemic corruption, ensuring that the common man receives the full benefits of govt schemes. PM Modi described JAM as delivering "maximum return on every rupee spent", with focus on empowering the poor and spreading technology widely across the population.

In UP alone, over Rs 10,000 crore has been saved across just 11 departments through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT). The use of technology has not only improved ease of living but also enabled the govt to achieve maximum results in minimal time. Platforms like UPI, DigiLocker, and DigiYatra have become integral to the lives of ordinary citizens.

Amid growing environmental challenges, the global community is increasingly recognizing that unsustainable development is not true progress and can have lasting consequences for humanity. This understanding aligns with the ancient Indian philosophy, which has always placed a high value on nature and environment. Under the PM, India has become a global advocate for environmental protection.

The PM's ‘Panchamrit' and ‘Lifestyle for Environment' (LiFE) campaigns have positioned India as a role model in fight against climate change. Over the past decade, India's installed solar energy capacity has surged by 2300%, with solar energy costs dropping by 70-80% since 2014. Through initiatives like the Pradhan Mantri Surya Ghar Yojana, the nation is now benefiting from renewable energy sources, marking a significant step toward a sustainable future.

Many major nations, still recovering from events like COVID-19 pandemic and Russia-Ukraine war, are grappling with economic difficulties. However, thanks to the PM's diplomatic prowess and financial expertise, India has not only navigated these tough times but has emerged as the world's fifth-largest economy. The moment is fast approaching when India will rise to become the third-largest economic superpower.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has recognized India as the fastest-growing economy in its latest global growth projections. Today, the world views India as an attractive investment destination. UP has been one of the biggest beneficiaries of this surge in economic interest.

‘Semicon India' conference held in UP last week marked the formal launch of India's journey to becoming a global hub for semiconductor manufacturing. From the Red Fort, the PM had declared, "My dream is for every device in the world to have a chip made in India". The country is committed to establishing itself as a semiconductor powerhouse.

With the PM "silicon diplomacy", India is poised to become a global leader in semiconductor production.

It is a divine coincidence that the birth anniversary of Devshilpi Bhagwan Vishwakarma coincides with the birthday of our PM. Today, India is crafting a glorious present on the foundation of future aspirations, taking on the role of a global leader, with PM Modi as the visionary architect of this ‘Amrit Nav Nirman'. We are confident that his resolve to build a ‘developed and self-reliant new India' will be realized through people's participation.
