Today, we pay tributes to the great Loknayak JP and Nanaji Deshmukh, who worked closely with JP. Both these individuals distinguished themselves and devoted their lives towards the betterment of our nation: PM @narendramodi
Loknayak JP was deeply popular among youngsters. The likes of Loknayak JP and Dr. Lohia were active during the 'Quit India' movement, inspired by the clarion call of Mahatma Gandhi. JP was never interested in power politics: PM @narendramodi
Loknayak JP fought corruption in the nation. His leadership rattled those in power that time and during a march he was even attacked. At that time, standing shoulder to shoulder with him was Nanaji Deshmukh: PM @narendramodi
When Janata Government was formed in 1977, Nanaji Deshmukh was requested to join the Government as a Minister but he did not do so. He followed JP and preferred to devote himself towards rural development and making our villages self-reliant, free from poverty: PM @narendramodi
Just having the best ideas for development are not enough. Initiatives have to be completed on time and the fruits of development must reach the intended beneficiaries. Efforts have to be comprehensive and 'outcome driven' not 'output driven' : PM @narendramodi
Strength of a democracy cannot be restricted to how many people vote. Yes, that is important but the real essence of a democracy is Jan Bhagidari and integrating people in the development journey of cities, villages. Regular Samvad with governments is required: PM @narendramodi
Lack of sanitation facilities is adversely impacting the development journey of villages. That is why we have been working to overcome this and build toilets in rural areas: PM @narendramodi
