Union Home Minister Amit Shah has highlighted 25 years of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, describing the period as one marked by the welfare of the poor, national security, development and India’s growing stature on the global stage.
Modi completed 25 years as the head of a government, beginning with his tenure as Gujarat Chief Minister in 2001 before becoming Prime Minister in 2014. The milestone has prompted tributes and assessments of his political journey and governance record.
Shah has emphasized the focus on welfare programmes alongside development initiatives under Modi’s leadership. He has pointed to measures aimed at improving access to housing, food, healthcare, financial services and other essential facilities for millions of people.
National security has also remained a central element of the leadership narrative. The government’s approach has placed greater emphasis on strengthening India’s defence capabilities, responding to security challenges and projecting the country as a more confident global power.
The broader assessment of Modi’s 25-year political journey also includes infrastructure expansion, technological development, economic reforms and India’s increasing international engagement. The Union Cabinet has separately passed a resolution commending his continuous leadership and highlighting achievements across welfare, infrastructure, technology, national security and foreign policy.
The milestone has renewed discussion about the transformation of Modi’s leadership from the state level to the national stage and its influence on India’s governance, development priorities and international positioning.
