In Narendra Modi's third term as prime minister, Shah said this new India is rapidly progressing towards development and self-reliance with the power of reform, perform and transform.
New Delhi, Jun 9 (PTI) Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday said the 11 years of Modi government was a 'golden period' of resolve, endeavour and dedication towards public service.
'The historic 11 years of the Modi Government have been a golden period of resolve, endeavour and dedication towards public service,' he wrote on 'X' in Hindi and called it 11 years of 'seva' (service).
The Modi government completes the first year of its third term on Monday.
The home minister said the country has seen a new era of economic revival, social justice, cultural pride and national security.
'The Modi government has proved that when the leadership is clear, the resolve is firm and the intention is of public service, then new records of service, security and good governance are created,' he said.
Shah said when PM Modi took over the reins of the country in 2014, there was policy paralysis in the country.
He said there were no policies, no leadership and scams were at their peak in the government the economy was in shambles and the governance system was directionless.
The home minister said during the '11 years of seva', the speed and scale of the country's development have been changed by 'Minimum Government, Maximum Governance'.
'PM Shri @narendramodi ji brought farmers, women, backwards, Dalits and marginalised to the centre of governance and created a work culture of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas and Sabka Prayas instead of appeasement,' he said.
Shah said the 11 years of the Modi government have also proved to be a milestone in the direction of national security.
'Naxalism is on its last legs, peace has been established in Jammu-Kashmir and the Northeast, India now responds to terrorist attacks by entering the homes of terrorists. This shows the changing picture of India under the Modi government,' he said. PTI ACB SKY SKY

From appeasement to report card politics: BJP hails ‘new normal' under Modi govt
New Delhi: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday described the eleven years of the Modi government as transformational and the one that redefined and reshaped Indian politics. Addressing a press conference at the party HQs, BJP President J.P. Nadda said that in the past 11 years, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has changed the culture of Indian politics, and it should be etched in the history books in golden letters. He said the Modi government has brought defining change in the country's politics and marked a decisive shift from -- politics of appeasement to the politics of report cards. 'This has become the new normal,' Nadda said. '11 years ago, appeasement and division of society on caste and religion were the political culture. But after 2014, a responsible government took charge under PM Modi, which started the politics of the report card,' he added. 'A remarkable transformation has taken place in the past eleven years. In the past, politics was often driven by appeasement politics, but that has now shifted to politics of performance, accountability, and responsible governance. This has now become the new normal,' he said. Nadda credited the Prime Minister for ushering in bold reforms across sectors and also for launching path-breaking initiatives like revoking Article 370 and Triple Talaq. 'Our government took bold and historic decisions in the national interest. We abrogated Article 370 and abolished Triple Talaq. We enacted a new Waqf Act and passed the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). We also ensured 33 per cent reservation for women in legislative bodies,' the BJP chief pointed out. He said that it is difficult to present a full account of 11 years of governance in a single press conference; however, he underscored that the gamut of visionary policies and bold reforms has laid the foundation of a developed and self-reliant India. He said that bold and transparent governance under PM Modi has laid the foundation for a futuristic administration, and this will pave the way for the realisation of the Viksit Bharat dream. The growing public sentiment of 'Modi hai tau mumkin hai' shows people's unflinching faith and confidence in PM Modi's leadership and reinforces the belief that even arduous tasks can be overcome under his stewardship, he opined. Nadda further underlined the government's unwavering commitment towards building Bharat of everyone's dreams and said that the mantra of 'Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas' remains its governing principle.

Ex-chief minister N Biren Singh leaves for Delhi amid escalating Manipur tensions
Former chief minister N Biren Singh and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Rajya Sabha lawmaker Leishemba Sanajaoba left for New Delhi on Monday to brief central leaders on the escalating tensions in the ethnic violence-hit Manipur. An influential Meitei outfit member's arrest over the weekend triggered the fresh violence that left at least 11 people injured and prompted authorities to reimpose restrictions, and governor Ajay Kumar Bhalla to conduct a security review. Singh, who resigned as the chief minister in February after the Supreme Court directed a central forensics lab to examine leaked audio tapes allegedly featuring him purportedly saying the ethnic violence was instigated at his behest, declined to comment when asked whether Union home minister Amit Shah had summoned them. Singh said they were headed to New Delhi to apprise the central leadership of the worsening situation, four months after the president's rule was imposed in Manipur in February following Singh's resignation. 'I appeal to the public, this is a very crucial stage. People should act cautiously and in unity, avoiding violence. Unity is our strength, and every step taken should move us toward peace.' Protesters on Sunday defied prohibitory orders and blocked major roads in parts of the state capital, Imphal, by burning debris and tyres, a day after clashes rocked the city. A police post was torched, forcing police to use tear gas shells. A road was blocked to stop Border Security Force personnel from entering the city. The arrest of Kanan Singh, a member of the Meitei body Arambai Tenggol, and the detention of four of his associates triggered the latest wave of violence. On Sunday, the Central Bureau of Investigation said that it had arrested Singh over his involvement in the violence in the state. On Saturday, hundreds of protesters resorted to arson and threw stones at security forces as the news of Singh's arrest broke. The Arambai Tenggol demanded Singh's immediate release and announced a 10-day shutdown. Singh was dismissed from the police force this year over his alleged involvement in smuggling weapons and looting armouries. The authorities suspended broadband and mobile data services in Imphal East and West, Kakching, Thoubal, and Bishnupur, saying some 'anti-social elements might use social media' to incite the public. A curfew was reimposed in Bishnupur for the first time this year. The movement of people in the valley districts was restricted due to apprehension of a breach of peace. The fresh unrest comes against the backdrop of a meeting between Union home ministry officials and representatives of Kuki-Zo militant groups who signed a Suspension of Operation (SoO) pact in 2008. It will be the first meeting between the two sides since the peace pact was put in abeyance last year. The Union and the Manipur governments signed the pact with the militant groups. I was renewed annually until 2024, when the renewal was kept in abeyance following allegations that members of the groups were involved in the ethnic violence. The protracted violence between Meiteis and Kukis was triggered in May 2023 and has left around 250 people dead and thousands displaced. Meiteis live largely in the plains of the Imphal valley, and the Kukis in the hills. They have withdrawn to their respective strongholds. The groups have since 2023 set up road blockades to restrict each other's and the movement of essential items between their strongholds.

Modi survives through publicity, his govt failed to fulfil promises: Siddaramaiah
Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said Prime Minister Narendra Modi has survived politically only through publicity. He claimed that Modi's government failed to fulfill the promises made to the people. On June 9, when asked by mediapersons in Mysuru to comment on the Modi government completing 11 years in power, Mr. Siddaramaiah said, 'I give zero marks to the government headed by Mr. Modi.' While asking who benefited from the demonetisation, Mr. Siddaramaiah recalled the Prime Minister's promise of 'Acche Din' and the creation of two crore jobs every year. 'He promised to solve the problems of farmers, but farmers had to protest for an entire year. The Modi government has completed 11 years in power without making any significant achievement. They have just completed 11 years, that's all.' Mr. Siddaramaiah regretted the excessive publicity given to Mr. Modi, and the latter's government was using the same to promote false claims. 'When our government announced the guarantee schemes, they said they cannot be implemented, and the government of Karnataka will go bankrupt. But they copied the same schemes,' he said alleging that the BJP has promised similar schemes in Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Delhi. Also, when Mr. Modi was the Chief Minister of Gujarat, he demanded a share of 50% to the States in devolution of taxes. 'But, what has he done after becoming the Prime Minister?' Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman promised ₹5,300 crores for Upper Bhadra project in Karnataka, but the funds were not released. Even though the 15th Finance Commission recommended grant of ₹11,495 crore to Karnataka, the money was not given, he claimed. Even though Karnataka has been at the receiving end of injustice, the State unit of the BJP is engaged in a misinformation campaign against State Government instead of questioning the injustice, he claimed.
