SALIENT POINTS OF THE SPEECH OF THE BJP NATIONAL PRESIDENT SHRI JAGAT PRAKASH NADDA GIVEN AT THE PARTY’S NATIONAL EXECUTIVE MEETING HELD AT THE NDMC CONVENTION CENTRE IN DELHI

The Bharatiya Janata Party is very lucky and privileged to have got the leadership and guidance of world’s most popular leader and a true statesman, our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji, which has made the Bharatiya Janata Party has highly popular and respected party. It has also resulted in the exponential growth of the Bharatiya Janata Party. I would like to thank our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji for giving strong, decisive and resolute leadership to the country

Be it the issue of terrorism, environment or Covid management, the thoughts of our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji are considered very sincerely and followed at the global arena. The manner in which our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji has put India’s viewpoint and concerns and given guidance to the world at the recently concluded G-20 summit and at COP 26 meetings is highly appreciable.

It is under the leadership and guidance of Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji that India has crossed the target of 100 crore Corona vaccination in record 278 days. Today over 108 crore vaccine doses have been administered so far. I would like to thank and congratulate our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji from the entire Bharatiya Janata Party for conducting world’s largest and fastest vaccination programme in the country.

Earlier it used to take decades for vaccines to reach India. Getting a ‘swadeshi’ vaccine was unimaginable. But India was able to manufacture two world class ‘Made In India’ vaccines in record 9 months. This is what reflects the changing India. This is what has changed due to the farsightedness and vision of our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji and made India and its citizens realise their true potential.

During the Corona pandemic our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji resolved that no one will remain hungry and cared for poor and migrant labourers. To accomplish this our Honourable Prime Minister started the world’s largest food programme — Pradhanmantri Gareeb Kalyan Anna Yojna — to provide free foodgrain to 80 crore people across the country. Last year as well as this year the Pradhanmantri Gareeb Kalyan Anna Yojna has benefitted over 80 crore people.

Under the guidance and leadership of our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji all Indians unitedly fought a decisive battle against the Corona pandemic and was able to defeat the Coronavirus. On the other hand some Opposition parties did not spare a chance to defame our vaccination drive and derail our fight against the Corona pandemic. Some opposition parties stooped to it lowest level just to do petty politics. Despite cheap tactics of some Opposition parties the name of our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji will be registered in the history books for being instrumental in manufacturing of Make In India vaccines  and getting crores of Indians getting vaccinated for free.

Now under the leadership of our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji the government has decided to launch the campaign ‘Ab Har Ghar Dastak’ under which we will reach every household across the country and mobilise people to get fully vaccinated. It is the duty of every BJP worker to make this programme highly successful.  Over 10 lakh volunteers of the Bharatiya Janata Party will assist in this programme.

During the Corona pandemic while the Opposition parties went into isolation, it were the crores of the Bharatiya Janata Party workers who did not care for their own health and safety and devoted themselves in the service of humankind, thus settings high standards of service and commitment. I sincerely thank and congratulate crores of the Bharatiya Janata Party for their devotion and dedication during the Corona pandemic.

The elections that were held after the outbreak of the Corona pandemic, the Bharatiya Janata Party performed well in every election, be it the by- elections,  the assembly elections, the local bodies elections. The Bharatiya Janata Party formed its majority government in Bihar and Assam, while we were able to form our government in Puducherry for the first time. The Bharatiya Janata Party was also able to establish itself as the principle opposition party in West Bengal.

Under the leadership of our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji the Bharatiya Janata Party has also established and attained high level of ideological standards. Under his leadership the Article 370 was abolished, the construction of grand Ram Temple in Ayodhya was started, regressive Triple Talak was abolished thus liberating Muslim women and the Citizenship Amendment Act was implemented. All this happened under the decisive and resolute leadership of Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji.

For the past 23 years Bru-Reang issue was left unresolved while the Bodo agitation has been hanging fire for the past 50 years. But all these issues were resolved under the leadership of our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji due to his strong commitment and decision making skills.

Though India has had several prominent farmers leaders, but the kind of work our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji has done for the welfare and upliftment of our farmers in the last seven years is unprecedented and highly condemnable. Such revolutionary and life changing initiatives for our farmers were never taken in the past 70 years  in our country.

Before 2014 India’s agriculture budget used to be just Rs 23,000 crores which have now gone up to Rs 1,23,000 crores under the leadership of our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji. Under the path breaking initiative of Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojna Rs 1.55 crores have so far been directly transferred into the bank accounts of over 10 crore farmers across the country.

This time record purchase of foodgrains have been purchased under the Minimum Support Price mechanism across the country due to the intervention of our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji. In 2016-17 foodgrains worth Rs 35,000 crores were purchased benefitting around 20 lakh farmers, but this year foodgrains worth over Rs 85,000 crores were purchased which benefitted over 39 lakh farmers across the country. This is the true pro farmers face of the Narendra Modi Government.

In true terms if someone has done work to establish Bharat Ratna Baba Saheb Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar ji on the global platform it is our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji who has developed ‘Panch Tirth’ and taken his teachings and principles to the masses in the country and across the world.

For the first time our National Education Policy which was implemented by the Narendra Modi Government truly reflects India’s ethos, culture and tradition and history. Now Indian students can get education in their native language.

Beti Bachao Beti Padao, Sukanya Samridhi Yojna, Matr Vandana Yojna, Swachh Bharat Yojna, Ujjawala Yojna, Mudra Yojna are some of the schemes implemented by the Narendra Modi Government to enable and facilitate women empowerment. From the Ujjawala Yojna over 9 crore women were liberated from the smoke of fire stove, thus making their lives easier and comfortable.

Our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji has done tremendous work for the Sikh community. It is due to the commitment and pledge of our Honourable Prime Minister that the FCRA registration grant for Shri Shri Harminder Sahib was done and foreign grant have now started to come. This work was done in the government of Shri Narendra Modi ji despite the fact that several Sikh leaders came to power but could not do this.

Earlier even the ‘langars’ used to be taxed, and the work to make this tax free was done by our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji. Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji was instrumental in getting the Kartarpur Sahib corridor developed and our Sikh brothers were able to easily visit the holy shrines of Dera Nanak Sahib and Kartarpur Sahib. The 350th ‘Prakash Parv’  of Guru Govind Singh ji was celebrated with grandeur and gaity across the country.

It is due to the firmness of our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji that 314 names have been removed from the blacklist. The Congress party government was not able to give justice to the families of our Sikh brothers and sisters who were massacred in 1984 riots. Our Honourable Prime Minister has formed SIT and have resolved to punish all guilty and provide justice to the affected families.

In West Bengal the manner in which state government sponsored violence and atrocities were unleashed on the Bharatiya Janata Party workers and innocent people, women were raped, properties were looted and vandalised, innocent people were killed and tortured, it is highly condemnable and preposterous. The Bharatiya Janata Party strongly condemns it. From the stage of the Bharatiya Janata Party National Executive meeting I would like to make it very clear that we will not remain silent and we will keep on fighting in a democratic manner to save our constitutional rights and give relief to the people and restore their honour and dignity. We will certainly form the Bharatiya Janata Party government in West Bengal.

Wherever the Bharatiya Janata Party is not in power we will try to form our governments . We are highly committed to form the Bharatiya Janata Party government in Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and West Bengal.

The manner in which the Mahaagadi government is involved in massive corruption and illegal collection, the Bharatiya Janata Party is committed to uproot the  government and give relief to the people of Maharashtra. In Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh communal tensions, Naxalism and corruption is at its zenith. We will expose these corrupt Government and form poor and people friendly Bharatiya Janata Party government in these states.

In Rajasthan cases of atrocities against women is growing very rapidly. Similarly cases of Dalit atrocities are also growing very fast. But the Congress party government in Rajasthan is least bothered. The Bharatiya Janata Party is highly committed to democratically fight for the rights and welfare of the people of Rajasthan. We are also committed to form the government in Rajasthan.

It is a matter of great satisfaction and appreciation for us that the work of formation of booth committees in 8 lakh booths. All the booths where the formation of booth committees have not been completed it will be done very soon.

Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji’s highly popular ‘Mann Ki Baat’ programme was very well received and appreciated at all booth level. I would appeal to all booth committees that they should regularly organise the viewing of ‘Mann Ki Baat’ programmes at their respective booths and ensure attendance of important and prominent personalities and make it a highly popular programme among the masses.

Under the guidance and leadership of our Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji the Bharatiya Janata Party is moving ahead strongly on the path of progress and development and is writing new chapters of glory and success. Under the leadership of Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji India is strongly poised to re-establish itself as Vishwaguru.
