Foreign policy has been among the top Modi achievements.
Narendra Modi has often been criticized by the opposition for so many foreign tours.
However, none of us can ignore the fact that his travels have made a lot of friends for the country. Be it about those warm hugs with Barak Obama, Donald Trump or attending Ganga Aarti with Japanese PM Shinzo Abe. Be it visiting Sabarmati Ashram with Xi Jinping or Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu calling Narendra Modi ‘dost’. Narendra Modi has made friends with the biggest leaders of the world -
Make in India & Digital India
Narendra Modi government has taken a lot of initiatives to directly impact the common people. Make in India was announced to make sure that MNCs start their plans in the country, resulting in generating employment and contributing to the economy. -
Swachh Bharat
When this initiative was announced, a lot of people had laughed at the fact that the government was giving so much of an importance to such small issue. However, in the last two and a half years, this moment has picked up momentum and bigger cities have started to realize the importance of cleanliness. Railway Stations and public places are now way cleaner than the past and the general public has been involved to make it a mass moment where everyone is aware of their duties. -
Ayushman Bharat scheme
Though it is still to be seen how the scheme gets implemented across the country, this could prove to be one of the biggest schemes launched by any government in India. Under this, over 10 crore families and 50 crore citizens across the country will be eligible to get medical insurance worth 5 lakh (per family/yearly). This will subsume existing health insurance scheme, known as Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY), launched in 2008 by the UPA government under Manmohan Singh. -
Change in attitude on international issues
Under the leadership of previous prime ministers, India was considered to be a defensive country with its focus on maintaining peace. Narendra Modi has shown a more aggressive way to deal with sensitive issues. Incidents like surgical strikes in Pak occupied Kashmir and destroying Pakistan bases give us a glimpse of it. Also, the government has come face-to-face with the Chinese government on various issues involving Arunachal Pradesh and Dalai Lama.
