Criticism of Previous Congress Administration

"Under the able leadership of the Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji, continuous efforts are being made towards the enrichment and revival of our religious heritage, while during the tenure of the previous Congress governments, these sacred sites were consistently neglected.

India's Transformation Since 2014
CM Dhami further alleged that before 2014, Indian politics were dominated by discussions of scams, scandals, misgovernance, and corruption, and India was portrayed as a weak and vulnerable nation on the international stage. However, he claimed that since 2014, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the country has now set new development milestones. "Earlier, in the country's politics, only scams, scandals, misgovernance, and corruption were discussed. India's image on the international stage was portrayed as a weak, backward, and vulnerable nation. However, after 2014, under the powerful leadership of our Prime Minister Narendra Modi, a historic period of reawakening India's self-respect, self-esteem, and sense of nationalism began. Today, with the policy of reform, perform, and transform, India is setting new development milestones. At the same time, we are establishing ourselves as a strong, capable, and powerful nation on global platforms..." added CM Dhami.
