Prime Minister Narendra Modi revealed his long-term planning horizon, expressing his vision for the year 2047. Speaking on Saturday, March 16 PM Modi emphasised his commitment to strategic planning and timely execution, highlighting his focus on delivering results rather than chasing headlines.
Addressing the media in New Delhi, PM Modi underscored his proactive approach to governance, emphasising the importance of setting goals and working diligently towards achieving them. He asserted that his administration has consistently prioritised meeting deadlines and fulfilling commitments, irrespective of external pressures or media attention.
PM Modi’s forward-thinking outlook aligns with his government’s emphasis on long-term development and nation-building. By setting his sights on the year 2047, the Prime Minister aims to lay the groundwork for a prosperous and resilient India, poised to meet the challenges and opportunities of the future.
PM Modi further mentioned that today the mood of the nation is about making India a Viksit Bharat. “Today the process of celebrating the biggest democratic festival has started. At a time when the whole world is facing uncertainties, one thing is sure India will keep developing at a fast pace. Today, the mood of the nation is about India’s efforts towards becoming the third biggest economy in the world. The mood of the nation is about making India a Viksit Bharat. Whenever I come at such a conclave, all you have expectations that I give many headlines, but I don’t work for headlines, but for deadlines,” he said.
Prime Minister further said that the Northeast region of the country was neglected by the government before 2014 but became a priority under his government. “Before 2014, the northeast region was always at the bottom of the list of priorities. After 2014, we decided that our ministers and senior officials would tour not only the district headquarters but also the interior parts of the region,” he said.
Highlighting the efforts made in the Northeast region by the BJP-led Centre in the last 10 years, the Prime Minister said that a change in mentality took place under his tenure towards its outlook for the villages in the region.
“Our Central ministers have visited the Northeast region 680 times. I alone went more to the Northeast region, which is more than the combined trips previous Prime Ministers took. We changed the mentality. Those that were called the last villages of India we changed that and started calling them the first villages. 17 of my cabinet ministers visited there and stayed all night,” he said.
