As the BJP-led government at the centre completes four years in office, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said for him and his party "it is always India First".
Stressing that development over the last four years has become a "vibrant mass movement", PM Modi said, "every citizen feeling involved in India's growth trajectory. 125 crore Indians are taking India to great heights!"
PM Modi in a series if tweets, highlighted the achievement of his government in the last 4 years. "Over the last four years, development has become a vibrant mass movement, with every citizen feeling involved in India's growth trajectory, 125 crore Indians are taking India to great heights!" Modi said in a series of tweets.
Tweeting a three-minute video highlighting achievements of his government, PM Modi said: "With the best intent and complete integrity, we have taken futuristic and people-friendly decisions that are laying the foundations of a new India," he said, adding the government is gaining confidence of people.
The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party has started prepping for next year's general elections with its list of achievements and a new slogan that seeks to focus not just on development projects being executed by the centre but also underscore its "clean intentions".
The tag line is "
Saaf Niyat, Sahi Vikas" (Clean Intentions, Right Development) and the punch line -
"2019 Mein Phir Modi Sarkar" - is seen as an extension of the BJP's slogan for the 2014 elections, "
Abki Baar Modi Sarkar".
In a mass campaign between May 26 and June 11, top BJP leaders, ministers and workers will reach out to people to inform them about the achievements and work done by the Modi government.
On Sunday, PM Modi will travel in an open jeep on the Delhi-Meerut Expressway and also inaugurate India's first smart and green highway, the Eastern Peripheral Expressway (EPE), built at a cost of Rs 11,000 crore. He will interact with the beneficiaries of 15 central schemes across the country through audio conferencing.
PM Modi will then fly to Cuttack in Odisha to address a public function to mark four years of his government. The BJP believes the party is within striking distance of a significant improvement in its performance in the 2019 elections.
In Delhi, BJP president and its master strategist Amit Shah will hold fort, addressing a media event on completing four years, seek to establish how the government's initiatives over four years had improved millions of lives and also, unveil the party's pitch for a second term.
A blitzkrieg planned by the government in Delhi and across the government is expected to focus on comparing 48 months of PM Modi's government with the previous 48 years, projecting the BJP-led national coalition that has fast-tracked development projects.
