Nadda further said that it is very difficult to understand the Congress-led Opposition's objective. 'See, I look at it this way, may God give them true wisdom, because it's very difficult to understand their objective. When they attend an all-party meeting, they say they stand with the country. But when they step outside, they start raising questions, questions that are completely baseless. That's why I can only say they are playing the role of an irresponsible opposition,' he said.
The Modi government completed 11 years today and also marked one year of its third term.

The BJP leader went on to list the achievements of their government under PM Modi's leadership including that of abolishing Triple Talaq, enactment of the New Waqf Act,
Citizenship Amendment Act
, Demonetisation, and 33 per cent Women Reservation.
"Work has been done for our tribal and OBC brothers. Scholarships and policies have been announced for them. This has been a women-led government that has also worked in the health sector. For instance, maternity leave was extended from 12 to 26 weeks with full pay, and financial support was provided to them (pregnant women). During the Chandrayaan mission, we saw the highest participation of women scientists. The Lakhpati Didi was another initiative (for women). All of this has been achieved over the past 11 years," he said.
Nadda added, "In the last 11 years, we jumped to the fifth position from the 10th position in the world's economies. The new data from the IMF will bring us to the fourth position. We have been the fastest economy in the world...If we talk about Operation Ganga, PM Modi proactively brought back the Indian citizens from Ukraine. Not only Indians but people from other countries also came out of Ukraine showing our flags."
The Union government has also released a comprehensive, 14 chapter e-book detailing achievements across various sectors over the past decade.
These 11 years, the book said, have been dedicated to bringing about development that is inclusive, progressive, and sustainable. "The government under Prime Minister Modi has been steadfast in its commitment to creating equity and opportunity for all citizens," it added.
"PM Modi has brought the politics of development - Vikasvaad - into the mainstream, making it the focal point around which political discourse and policy action now revolve," it reads.
Since assuming office in 2014, PM Modi has remained firm in his resolve to keep 'India First' in every policy formulation and action, the BJP said in the book. It added that the resolve is evident in the government's handling of both external and internal security, economic management, empowerment schemes for marginalised groups, efforts at cultural conservation and so on.
It emphasised that in the last decade or so there has been a paradigm shift in public service delivery and the implementation of government schemes using the JAM Trinity - Jan Dhan, Aadhaar, and Mobile.
The book also had a mention of India's recent Operation Sindoor, described as a demonstration of a new India--resolute, swift, and sovereign in action.
"India's assertion on the global stage has also undergone a remarkable evolution. The success of Operation Sindoor demonstrated a new India--resolute, swift, and sovereign in action."
