This achievement is the result of the love, trust, and immense public support of crores of Indians.

I have closely observed him tirelessly toiling, thinking about India's future every moment, and constantly reflecting on bringing transformation to the lives of the poor. For him, the position is not a means of prestige, but a resolve for service. This journey of 4,399 days is a golden chapter in the construction of an empowered, prosperous, developed, and self-reliant India.
