Ruling alliance INDIA bloc alliance parties, however, criticised the Modi govt, saying it was misgovernance during which the country has seen scores of atrocities against sections of society.
Irani enumerated how the last 11 years have been decisive under Modi's rule for India to become an emerging economy. She cited the historic events and achievements over the last decade right from the abrogation of Article 370 to Operation Sindoor.
"The nation's global footprint across various sectors, including supplying Covid-19 vaccines to 160 countries, is hailed by one and all," she said.
Irani also said, "In 11 years, the Modi govt achieved the impossible, even forcing the opposition to praise. Today, the world looks at India with respect. The strength of the Indian flag has increased globally. Through the Jan Dhan accounts, 500 million people were benefited by govt schemes, 810 million people received free foodgrain every month and 150 million homes got tap water, among others," she said.
Dubbing the 11 years of Modi govt as misgovernance, JMM spokesperson Tanuj Khatri said, "BJP is unaware of the ground reality as it can't hear the cries of the people, their struggles, and the questions the govt is yet to answer, be it on jobs or farm crisis among others. Talking about Jharkhand, tribals are demanding the Sarna code but the Centre continues to ignore them. The state assembly had unanimously passed a resolution in favour of the code, but Modi govt continues to block it.

He added, "The prolonged violence in Manipur, particularly the brutalities faced by women, expose the govt's apathy. The PM's silence in such a grave constitutional crisis reflects not only administrative failure but moral bankruptcy. The list is long."
State Congress president Keshav Mahto Kamlesh added, "In 11 years, BJP worked towards demeaning the constitutional norms and institutions. Crimes against women have nearly doubled according to the NCRB data and the PM couldn't dare to speak on foreign debt and India's isolation due to its flawed foreign policy among others. Central govt's policies, not only led to a rise in unemployment, but workers' rights have also been curtailed.
