Two years of BJP in power: Un-breaking our national integrity


When the people of India overwhelmingly elected BJP to power in the summer of 2014, we were a broken nation.  Our national security had been challenged by our neighbors,  the Government in power had fractured our backbone with corruption, our strength had been weakened by policy paralysis and inaction and to top it all, the western vested interests had infiltrated in the form of NGOs that were breaking our ligaments from inside.  Forget making any progress in a fast paced world, we were incapable as a Nation in holding ourselves in an integrated oneness.  That is when and why people voted BJP to power in May 2014.

Remember the prolonged agitation of Medha Patkar in undermining development and the water security of the central and western parts of India?  Remember the Greenpeace sponsored agitations that were trying to stall power generation capacity building and development in many parts of the country?  Remember Teesta Setalvad who in connivance with large multinational donors was promoting communal disharmony under the mask of social work?

India was mushrooming with NGOs and activists, who ate from the palms of western donor agencies and were breaking the nation from within.  Not a day had passed without the Media reflecting their voice and lionizing their unjust stands.  They were being showered with international awards and recognition for breaking the nation from within, in the name of civic movement.

It is two years of BJP in power now with a singular focus of development of this great nation.  The vested interests have been plucked out of their niches and dumped into the dustbin of history.  The perpetrators of these double faced NGOs have been exposed and neutralized.  

And, two years have passed without an unjust agitation by NGOs or dubiously funded vested interests.  Even this week, an NGO of a well connected person has been exposed and is being brought to justice.  A nation that was being broken by divisive forces has begun its journey on a rapid path of development with an uncompromising and unbroken stance.  It is a pity that this has not been conveniently  recognized by the so called Political commentators, Political psychologist ,Social theorist, critics and including Media and made aware of to the people. 

It is also true that in the past two years, most projects have progressed as scheduled, without the opposition of the vested interests backed by western lobbies.  The financial over-run on the projects is a thing of the past and today; the nation is witnessing cost-effective implementation of infrastructure projects, which had become milking cows of easy money for the previous Govt. 

These very significant achievements need to be accepted and publicized by all concerned, regardless of political or professional ideologies, as they have a direct bearing on our well being as individuals and as a nation.

We need to make people of India aware of these benefits of Acche Din.  We need to feel proud that the nation is on the path to progress.  We need to feel happy that the lives of our children will be better than ours.  As a nation, we need to realize that 'hope' has come to be a meaningful word.
