- The NDA Government at the Centre led by the charismatic Prime Minister in his second term has initiated few ground-breaking measures since assuming office following up on his earlier term’s decisive decision-making processes. Preaching is easier but practicing in letter and spirit is monumental. Those decisions were not only well appreciated by most of the populace but also helped to position the Prime Minister as the Man unafraid to take a tough stand when the nation’s sovereignty and security are under threat.
- The nation is grateful for the abrogation of J & K’s Article 370 and bifurcating the State into two Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh, respectively. Despite widespread condemnation mostly from the so-called secular and pseudo-secular front, the introduction of CAA (Citizenship Amendment Act) and NRC (National Register of Citizens) too was welcomed. Introduction of the bill to nullify triple-talaq should also be hailed since the women of the community are shielded from the abrupt severing of the marriage.
- Of course, the crowning glory was the recently carried out ground-breaking ceremony for the construction of Lord Ram temple in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh. Entire Hindus were eagerly waiting for such a momentous occasion for almost five centuries and millions had given up hopes of witnessing such a day eventually would turn up in their lifetime. Now the most cherished dreams of the majority community would fructify within the next four years if the temple construction completion timeline is adhered to.
