New Delhi, 9th June: When Narendra Modi took office as Prime Minister in 2014, he carried with him the hopes and dreams of millions. Promising “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas” — togetherness, development for all, and trust — his vision was simple but powerful: to transform India into a stronger, more inclusive nation.
Over the last eleven years, this vision has become the driving force behind a wide range of changes in how India is governed and how it grows. What stands out most is PM Modi’s focus on connecting with people directly, whether through digital tools like the Digital India campaign or through big initiatives that aimed to touch the daily lives of every citizen.
Take the Swachh Bharat Mission, for example. What began as a government program to improve sanitation turned into a nationwide movement, changing not just toilets but mindsets. It became a matter of pride for many Indians to contribute to a cleaner, healthier India.
PM Modi’s leadership also brought a fresh energy to India’s politics and economy. His bold steps — from introducing the Goods and Services Tax to pushing for financial inclusion through Jan Dhan accounts — showed a willingness to shake up old systems for the promise of a better future. Yet, these moves were not without controversy. Policies like demonetization sparked heated debate, reflecting the complexity of governing such a diverse country.
At its heart, PM Modi’s tenure has been about balancing ambition with delivery, and vision with reality. There have been ups and downs, applause and criticism. But one thing is clear: the past eleven years have reshaped India’s story in ways few expected.
As we look ahead, the question is not just what has been done, but how the momentum can be sustained — how India can continue to grow in a way that benefits all its people, not just a few.
This editorial series will explore this journey in greater detail — from the economy to infrastructure, social welfare to foreign policy, and the challenges that lie ahead. For now, it’s worth pausing to appreciate the scale of transformation that has unfolded since that hopeful day in 2014.
