New Delhi: As his government completes one year in power on Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi wrote a letter to the people highlighting the work done by the National Democratic Alliance government and fulfilling its poll promise. From curbing inflation, transparent auction of natural resources to social initiatives like Swachh Bharat, Jan Dhan Yojana, Modi listed out measures taken by his government.
Modi took charge at a time when India was facing many challenges. In the letter, Modi said that his government has been successful in ending policy paralysis and rejuvenating the economy.
"Runaway prices were immediately brought under control. The languishing economy was rejuvenated, building on stable, policy-driven proactive governance. Discretionary allotment of our precious natural resources to a chosen few was replaced with transparent auctions. Firm steps were taken against black money, from setting up a SIT and passing a stringent black money law, to generating international consensus against the same. Uncompromising adherence to the principle of purity, in action as well as intent, ensured a corruption-free government," Modi said.
Reaching out to the poor and marginalised sections of the society, Modi listed out initiatives taken by his government for their welfare. "Numerous measures and schemes have been initiated – from making school toilets to setting up IITs, IIMs and AIIMS; from providing a vaccination cover to our children to initiating a people-driven Swachh Bharat mission; from ensuring a minimum pension to our labourers to providing social security to the common man; from enhancing support to our farmers hit by natural calamities to defending their interests at WTO; from empowering one and all with self attestation to delivering subsidies directly to people’s banks; from universalizing the banking system to funding the unfunded small businesses," Modi added.
Modi once again reiterated that serving people was his ultimate duty and has been doing so with sincerity and honesty. "One year ago, you had entrusted me with the responsibility and honour of serving you as your Pradhan Sevak. I have devoted every moment of every day, and every element of my body and spirit, in fulfilling the same with fullest sincerity and honesty," Modi said.
Modi concluded by saying that his objective is to transform quality of life, infrastructure and services.
Exactly a year ago, Modi was sworn in as the Prime Minister with a small Cabinet of 45 ministers after a historic win of 334 seats in the 543-member Assembly.
