On Wednesday, New Delhi marked the 25th anniversary of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s tenure as head of government. Vice President C. P. Radhakrishnan and Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla publicly lauded Modi’s leadership, citing his role in driving inclusive development and transforming multiple sectors across the nation.
In a social media post, the vice president, who also chairs the Rajya Sabha, praised Modi for converting the vision of inclusive development into a nationwide mission guided by the principle of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayaas.’
Radhakrishnan highlighted visible changes in states and Union territories, noting improvements in connectivity, digital advancement, expanded opportunities, and broader inclusive development. He identified lifting 25 crore people out of extreme poverty as Modi’s greatest achievement, describing it as a landmark accomplishment that ‘human history can never forget.’
In a Hindi post, Speaker Birla said that the resolve of a ‘Developed India’ has become the aspiration of crores of citizens, adding that under Modi’s leadership, the country’s expectations are ‘touching the skies.’ Modi has served continuously as head of government since October 7, 2001, first as chief minister of Gujarat for three terms and then as prime minister after winning three Lok Sabha elections.
