Bhubaneswar: Lauding Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s 25 years in public service, Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi on Wednesday said he has transformed the country’s earlier apprehensive outlook into a confident ‘can-do’ approach.
From assuming office as Gujarat chief minister on October 7, 2001, to serving as prime minister, Modi has completed 25 years of uninterrupted service as elected head of government.
Stressing that Modi’s 25-year journey of public service and unwavering dedication to nation-building is an inspiration to many, Majhi said with firm resolve, foresight, and dedicated leadership, Modiji has led the country to new horizons of development.
Lauding the prime minister for the feat, Majhi said, “From ‘can India?’ to ‘India Can’. For 25 years, Narendra Modi has turned ‘Seva’ (service) into Sankalp (resolve), Sankalp into action, and action into transformation. He did not just lead India through challenges. He changed India’s confidence in itself.”
A nation, which once asked, “can we?”, now stands tall under Prime Minister Modi’s leadership and says, “we can, we will, we must,” said CM Majhi.
“From limitations to possibilities, from following the world to shaping the future. Twenty-five years of service and 25 years of transforming the belief that India can,” he said.
“With the guiding mantra of ‘nation first’ and the resolve of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’, the epoch-making people’s leader, Narendra Modi, is providing the nation with new momentum toward the formation of a ‘Developed India’ by 2047,” the Chief Minister said.
“The trust of the people is the foundational bedrock of governance, a principle that Modi Ji has exemplified in every endeavor throughout the past 25 years. His relentless struggle to transform India into a developed nation is also infusing new momentum into our state’s developmental journey. The trust of the people forms the bedrock of good governance, a principle exemplified by Modi Ji throughout his twenty-five years in public office. His vision for an empowered, developed Bharat provides constant momentum to our developmental priorities in Odisha,” said Majhi.
The Chief Minister participated in a ‘Viksit Bharat Sankalp Sabha’ and ‘Seva Jyoti Yatra’ programme held in Khordha on the occasion.
