The Union Cabinet passed a resolution on October 6, 2026, celebrating Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 25 years of continuous leadership. The resolution emphasizes various initiatives and achievements that have been carried from his tenure as Chief Minister of Gujarat to the national stage.
The Union Cabinet passed a resolution on October 6, 2026, congratulating Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi on completing 25 years of continuous leadership as head of government. The resolution is more than a customary tribute but a celebration of PM Modi's extraordinary journey guided by the principle of 'Nation First' and 'Citizen First'.
The resolution traces how PM Modi carried successful initiatives from his tenure as Chief Minister of Gujarat to the national stage. For instance, SWAGAT, through which he personally heard citizens’ grievances, received the United Nations Public Service Award in 2010. It later inspired PRAGATI, a platform bringing governments together to review stalled projects, resolve obstacles and accelerate completion.
The resolution also connects PM Modi's sensitivity towards poverty with various programmes delivering homes, water, banking, and healthcare. Nearly 60 crore Jan Dhan accounts, over 4 crore homes, and 25 crore people moving out of poverty show how personal understanding became public action, bringing families dignity.
The determination to help people shape their futures runs through the resolution. Approximately 3.5 crore women became LakhpatiDidis, while the Nari Shakti VandanAdhiniyam provided for women’s reservation. Startups, skills and education reform expanded youth opportunities. PM-KISAN transfers exceeded ₹4 lakh crore, while PM-JANMAN brought focused support to particularly vulnerable tribal communities, extending development to those historically left behind.
The resolution gives particular emphasis to PM Modi’s willingness to pursue reform despite political risks. GST, welfare delivery reforms and the replacement of colonial laws demonstrate his determination to address longstanding challenges.
Under PM Modi’s leadership, public capital expenditure rose from ₹2 lakh crore to over ₹12 lakh crore, alongside highway expansion and railway electrification. Electronics production increased from around ₹2 lakh crore to more than ₹13 lakh crore.
The resolution highlights PM Modi’s ability to give India direction through global upheaval. During COVID, he united the country, backed domestic vaccine development and enabled rapid vaccination. During the West Asia crisis, timely decisions and energy security measures helped India withstand disruption.
