Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday addressed the 63rd foundation day programme of Bharat Vikas Parishad, an NGO, where he lauded the achievements of the Narendra Modi government and said the 11-year rule will be written in golden letters.

Shah credited Prime Minister Modi for ushering in development in all spheres of life and protecting India’s heritage. “Whenever there is a discussion on the change taking place in India, historians will write about the 11 years of PM Modi’s government in golden letters," he said.

Shah also praised the Bharat Vikas Parishad for its significant contributions to India’s development, highlighting its role in bridging the gap between those who want to serve and those who need service. He also highlighted the organisation’s commitment to social service and nation-building.

He said the Parishad’s approach of linking service with organisation and culture with nation-building remained highly evident today, and connected its mission with PM Modi’s national development goals for 2047, including liberation from colonial mindsets, pride in heritage and a strong sense of duty.

Amit Shah On Naxalism, Terrorism

The Home Minister also highlighted other achievements of the Modi government in the last 11 years, including the construction of the Ram Temple in Uttar Pradesh’s Ayodhya and 5G technology.

He said the Modi government fulfilled its resolve to free Jammu and Kashmir from the scourge of terrorism by abolishing Article 370, and provided Indian nationality to thousands of refugees through the Citizenship Amendment Act.

“Today, the country is on the verge of being free from Naxalism. Along with this, by establishing the Ministry of Cooperation, opportunities for self-employment are being provided to small farmers and the rural poor," he said, while also listing the new National Education Policy as one of the government’s major accomplishments.

Hailing the activities of the Parishad, Shah said it will continue to contribute with even greater enthusiasm when India celebrates the 100th anniversary of its independence. “Over the years, the workers of this organisation have considered service itself as a form of devotion and have moved forward. Treating the nation as a family, they have strived to share in the suffering of every distressed person."

The Home Minister also noted that the Parishad operates in 412 districts, with over 1,600 branches and 84,000 affiliated families. He also lauded the Parishad for felicitating Manipur’s freedom fighter Nilamani Singh, who was part of Netaji Subash Chandra Bose’s Azad Hind Fauj.

The Bharat Vikas Parishad was originally founded as the ‘Citizens Council’ in 1963 on the birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda. It is a voluntary non-government organisation which focuses on social service for a ‘Swasth-Samarth-Sankarit’ (Physically, economically and morally strong) India.
