He further noted the global recognition of the Prime Minister's tireless work ethic, stating, "The world is amazed to see him working 24/7 for the country. He is perhaps the first politician in a democratic system to sustain such popularity for such a long period", he said.
He highlighted major policy measures, including the 33 per cent reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and State Legislative Assemblies.
"Whether it is the rule mandating 33% reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and State Legislative Assemblies, implementing real-time digital payments, taking bold steps like the rollout of GST to build a better future for the country, or addressing issues like Article 370, the government has acted decisively", he said.
