Why is Narendra Modi such a dynamic Prime Minister?

Dear Readers,
Welcome back. It is great to see you all again. It has been a very busy political week both in India and the United States of America. Some remarkable political decisions have been taken in both these leading democracies of the world. Both countries have taken decisions which will influence the lives of millions of people in these countries in the years to come. As new pages of history have been written, let us see why Mr. Narendra Modi is such a dynamic Prime Minister?
Mr. Narendra Modi had taken oath as the Indian Prime Minster a couple of years back in the year 2014. Before this position he was the Chief Minister for the state of Gujarat for three consecutive terms. Let us try to see what all accomplishments he has achieved in his short term as the Indian Prime Minister.

1. He buried all the diplomatic visa row with the United States as he soon as became the Indian Prime Minister. He thus ensured that he had buried all the past differences and that he was willing to look forward in the interest of his country men. By doing this he exhibited the greatest trait of a successful leader which is to Put Others Before Self.

2. He invited Prime Minster Nawaz Sharif from Pakistan and leaders from other neighboring states to his swearing in ceremony. By doing this he opened the room for diplomatic dialogue with the troubled neighbors. He went even to the extent of attending the wedding ceremony of Prime Minster Nawaz Sharif's grand daughter. He took a big security risk when he travelled to Pakistan without major security arrangements. This shows that he was willing to negotiate peace with his neighbors and he did everything possible to achieve it.

3. There were lot of incursions by China along the border and the issue of Arunachal Pradesh has also been a thorn in the flesh for both these countries. He travelled to China to strengthen diplomatic ties and to woo China into helping India to join the elite league of United Nations. The Chinese incursions have reduced considerably since his visit. The mutual trade between these countries has also improved due to this diplomacy.

4. He has travelled to Japan a couple of times already. He managed to garner several trade deals and technology transfer deals like the bullet train and metro train construction deals which have proved beneficial for both the countries. He has also signed few defence deals and nuclear energy deals with Japan which has helped India to counter threats from China and provided a great ally to us to restore the power baance in Asia.

5. He has maintained great relations with Russia which has been the longest military ally of India. We have been working together on building fifth generation Aircrafts and supersonic missiles. Russia has leased us nuclear powered submarines and also delivered our biggest Aircraft carrier. Our best fighter planes are the Russian made Sukhois and Mig jet planes.Our biggest achievment I consider is the indigenous manufacturing of the supersonic Brahmos missiles. These are the fastest supersonic missiles in the world in their category range and are extremely lethal. India is considering supplying the Brahmos missiles to countries like Vietnam. This undertaking has made India an arms exporter now. We are among the worlds largest arms importers already. Now, we have acquired the ability to export arms as well. The missile transfer and the sale of Indian made helicopters to Vietnam has helped India to make a great new strategic ally.

6. Modiji has travelled to United States. His visit brought huge crowds to the streets of Newyork when he gave his historic speech at the Madison Square garden. The hearts of a billion Indians was filled with pride when our Prime Minister gave a great speech which showcased our achievements to the whole world. Now, it is a known fact that the United States of America is our greatest ally in this twenty first century. We have signed numerous trade deals, technology deals and arms deals. United States of America had helped us to become a nuclear super power and also vigorously pushed India's case for a seat in the United Nations council. Our mutual interests and partnership has paved the path towards a great future for both our countries. When president Obama visited New Delhi to attend the Republic Day this year he gave proof of our great friendship to the whole world.

7. He had travelled to far nations like Mongolia building new allies. But, his visit to Saudi Arabia was most remarkable. He negotiated new trade deals and also made a new ally in fighting the terrorists. We have also built great relations with countries like Spain and France which has helped us in our technological and military operations. France is helping India by delivering nuclear submarine Scorpene and fifth generation aircraft Rafale. Spain is helping to build High speed trains.

8. He showed to the whole world that India does not tolerate terrorism lightly. He sent special armed forces to Bhutan to fight the terrorists who had attacked our army. Similarly, he gave a befitting reply to Pakistan who has been perpetrating cross border terrorism. The terrorists killed 19 Indian soldiers in Kashmir recently while they were sleeping in their camps. The brave Indian army gave a befitting reply by performing surgical strikes across the border and successfully destroyed several terrorist launch pads which were planing to send new terrorists to India to cause further disruption and mayhem. Prime Minsiter Modiji has sent a strong message to our neighbors to either stop terrorism or be ready to bare the consequences.

9. Within India, he has started great education initiatives. He had been instrumental in sanctioning several new educational institutions like the Primier Indian Engineering college Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in several new cities. He had also started new initiative for rural education and girl education.

10. Modiji has undertaken the Swach Bharath Abhiyan or the Clean India Campaign to help India become clean and get rid of diseases.

11. He had started the SMART city initiative to build world class well planned cities.

12. He has launched the Aadhar scheme to create unique identification for every citizen. Also, he has helped millions of rural people in the country by encouraging them to open  bank accounts and to keep their hard earned income secure. He has also started Pension and Insurance scheme for all the Indian citizens.

13. We successfully launched the Mangal yaan or the Mars Orbiter at a small cost of just 400 crore rupees. This is the most economical space mission to Mars ever. Our space mission has immensely flourished under his able leadership.

14. He has a given a boost to the Indian manufacturing sector by pitching for the Make In India campaign. Now, everyone from Tesla to Microsoft to Google and Apple are helping India to achieve this dream.

15. He has been promoting the use of Technology to help Indians to connect and grow their businesses. He has encouraged farmers to use latest scientific techniques in farming. We could see how Urea fertilizer was produced at such high scale and helped our farmers. He has also encouraged Banks to provide loans to farmers at very economical interest rates.

16. On the day United States elected its 45th president, India was doing something equally remarkable. Our Prime Minister took a major step against corruption by demonetising 500 rupees and 1000 rupees notes with immediate effect to curb black money. Almost 86% of Indian currency is present in these denominations. Although, there has been a temporary inconvenience to the general public. But, the entire nation has been supportive of this bold and wise decision. This decision will go a long way to help in having transparent elections and curb terrorism which is being suported by the huge flow of fake currency in the country.

In short, the whole nation is proud that it elected Modiji as it's Prime Minister. In him we have all found a visionary and a great man who is returning India to it's lost glory.
We salute this man and wish him great success in all his endeavors. I would like to end this article with the following note which is their on all Indians lips "Har baar sirf Modi Sarkaar" (Every time only Modi government).

Please drop me your valuable comments and feedback which always encourage me to write more.

With Love,
Gunjan
