It all began in May 25 , 2015 when India set sails towards
an un-explored horizon, in quest of release from the mighty load of unending
corruption, an ever-rising inflation, fast-depleting optimism and a hugely
dissatisfied population. At helm was the new captain of the ship PM Modi, who
had become the latest poster boy for empowerment of the neglected, wretched lot
of the 150 crore nation and who seemed the glimmer of hope for greener pastures
for Incredible India. With the support of the only single-majority government
in the last three decades of electoral polling, Modi promised a better,
cleaner, and most important of all a whole-inclusive growing nation to the
masses. The journey towards “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas” had thus begun.
Right from the first day in office , the Namo government
swung into action , whether it be checking out the bureaucratic punctuality of
Shastri Bhavan, the Indian Administrative headquarters or imparting lessons on
daily cleanliness (or filthiness) to government institutions , India witnessed
many firsts. It was also on beset of the Modi government that India witnessed
the presence of Barack Obama as state guests for a National Day celebration,
making him the first POTUS ( President of the United States) to do so. This
period also saw rocketed fuel prices and inflation gradually lose momentum and
India set sights on the first signs of “ache din” revolution.
This period also saw a slew of measures taken by the
government to strengthen the socio-economic standards of an average Indian,
whether be the “Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojna” or “Swach Bharat Mission”,
several attempts were made to ensure a holistic change in the country’s fate.
Blackmoney , that had been the topic for most newsroom debate for the last
uncountable date, was put to rest by setting up an SIT to enquire upon and
track trails of illegal ransoms stashed abroad. The “Namami Gange ” plan saw
formation of a separate ministry to check for restoring the divinity of the
holy Ganges. There were also plans in place to check and plug loopholes for
containing corruption by introducing transparency as per the government’s
“Minimum Government, Maximum Governance” ideology.
Today, as we complete the first year since the essence of
the Modi government, India witnessed the first Report Card presented by India’s
“Pradhan-Sevak” where in he highlighted how his government is dedicated to the
upliftment of the poor and needy, to the strengthening the Indian youth, to the
betterment of quality of life of the common mass and to face-lift the universal
notion towards the nation.
Modi laid down his government’s measures to ensure
financial-inclusion through the Jan-Dhan yojana , the Atal-Bima Yojana or the
Mudra Bank. While the Jan-Dhan yojana ensures banking covers the last mile of
the country , The “Atal Bima Yojana” ensures financial security in form of a
insurance cover in lieu of a paltry Re 1/- per month. The Mudra Bank is aimed
at financially empowering the small-scale tradesman and business houses for
instant grant of loans ranging from 10k-10 lacs.
Modi also stated how, in contrast to opposition claims, his
government was directed towards betterment of the agricultural sector through
the “Krushi Sichai Yojana” , that aimed at quenching water and power requisites
of the peasants, as also the “Soil Health Card” aimed at implementing
scientific techniques and modern skills to improve the productivity.
Modi unraveled the measures taken to improve employ-ability
of the Indian youth through skill development programs and by reviving the
erstwhile sick industrial set-ups.
True to his nature, Modi also showed how by introducing
cunning innovation, illegal diversion of Urea produced by government fertilizer
industries was stopped by introducing neem-coating on the finished goods,
thereby rendering it useless for chemical processes.
Concluding the mark, Modi promised endless efforts with
utmost enthusiasm to achieve the goal embarked upon him, backed by the support
of the Indian voters. He hailed “ache din” isn’t far as the “bure din” were
over for now.
