Modi Govt focuses on serving the poor, honouring marginalized: Arunachal Pradesh Education Minister Taba Tedir

OUR CORRESPONDENT

ITANAGAR: Arunachal Pradesh Education Minister Taba Tedir on Wednesday said that Sewa, Susashan and Garib Kalyan (Service, good governance and well-being of the poor), are the main mantras of the Narendra Modi government in the last nine years since it came to power in 2014. Addressing reporters at the party office here following nationwide launch of Maha Jan Sampark Abhiyan by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Tedir said that the nine years of Modi government focused on nine areas. He added that the areas include, serving the poor and honouring marginalized; affordable, accessible healthcare for all; new momentum for nari shakti, infrastructure at speed and scale, empowering India's amrit peedhi, ensuring farmers’ welfare among others.

Presenting the report card of the BJP-led NDA government at the Centre, Tedir said that in the last 9 years, policy making in India has transformed from policy paralysis to 'decisive policy' and in terms of ranking, India has jumped from 'Fragile Five' to 'Top Five'. “India, which was once ruled by Great Britain for over 250 years, has surpassed it to become the fifth largest economy in the world. The people of India have rejected the politics of "Apna Parivar, Apna Vikas" and embraced the policy of "Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas", he said. Taking a dig at the opposition Congress, Tedir said that India has demolished dynasty politics, nepotism and casteism and replaced it with developmental politics. He added that earlier India's voice was ignored and today, the whole world listens when India speaks. “Earlier the schemes were present only on documents and today schemes are made and implemented on the ground, within a single term. From laying the foundation stone to inauguration, both take place in the same term,” Tedir said adding, during the previous government’s tenure, middle men siphoned off the money of the beneficiaries while today the middlemen have been thrown out of the system.

Abrogation of Article 370, putting an end to triple talaq, fighting terrorism with surgical strikes and air strikes, and paving the way for the construction of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, were the significant strides the country witnessed in the past nine years, the minister said and added that more than 3 crore poor people have got their own homes, electricity supply, water supply, gas connection, toilets, and Ayushman cards. Party state general secretary Zingnu Namchoom speaking on the occasion highlighted various activities proposed by the party to be undertaken from May 30 to June 30 in different parts of the state under the Jan Sampark Abhiyan. BJP state unit president Biyuram Wahge and Tedir later launched the website of the party for the Jan Sampark Abhiyan and a mobile number for giving missed calls to record party’s outreach to the people.
