New Delhi, Sept 25: Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the BJP conclave in Kozhikode during its concluding session. In presence of top brass party leaders at the party’s national executive meet, Modi highlighted the need of idealism and introspection in contemporary Indian politics. He urged the BJP leadership to recall the ideology of Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya, and strictly adhere to it. During his speech, Modi once again reiterated his commitment to secularism by quoting Deendayal Upadhyaya’s opinion on treatment of Muslims in India. “Musalmano ko na puraskrit karna chahiye, na turaskrit karna chahiye. Unko vote ki mandi ka samaan nahi samajhna chahiye. Musalmano ko apna samajhna chahiye (Muslims should neither be rewarded, nor be disdained. Muslims should be considered as our own. They should not be considered as votebank. Muslims should be empowered)”.
Modi further added that BJP believes in this version of secularism. “In our nation, an atmosphere has been created where even patriotism is criticised… We believe in such a development where no community, no region, no state is left behind. Our government is committed to the welfare of the last person in the society. We believe in Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikaas,” the Prime Minister added. Citing Deendayal Upadhyaya’s work towards agrarian and labour issues, Modi said, “When the NDA government was elected and I was chosen as the leader, we took a resolve that our government would remain committed to the poor section of our population. All policies and initiatives have been taken keeping the poor in mind. We must strive for the social and economic upliftment of the last man standing in the queue.
“How can we believe in a version of development where the western zone of the nation develops, but the eastern nation lags behind. The goal of development would be fulfilled when everyone reaps the benefit of development. No one can be considered as paraya (stranger) for us. Bharat Mata encompasses all of us. No one can be left behind,” Modi added. (ALSO READ: Narendra Modi’s public response to Uri attack forces chauvinistic voices within Pakistan to introspect)
“Our party was formed for poor section of society and all our initiatives today are focussing on downtrodden people only,” the Prime Minister said, further adding that BJP needs to protect itself from the political diseases which have gripped other parties… I’m not saying that there are not good leaders in other outfits. But there are more number of good people in our party.”
Making an important announcement, Prime Minister confirmed that India would be ratifying the COP-21 agreement on the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi. “Today people discuss about Global warming, but Deendayal Upadhyaya ji back then used to say that we should respect our resources. On Mahatma Gandhi birth anniversary (Oct 2), we will ratify the decisions that were made during COP-21,” Modi added.
Before ending his speech, Modi also opined that the electoral procedure in the country should be altered. In several public meetings, Modi has reiterated the need to get the nation out of political mode and switch into the governance mode. The constant electoral warfare across the nation, and the impositions of model code of conduct, severely dent the performance of government.
With Prime Minister’s valedictory speech, the session of BJP National Executive Meeting in Kozhikode concluded. The next meeting is scheduled in Delhi on January 7-8.
