Modi’s journey from CM to PM.

The inspiring story of Narendra Modi, the current Prime Minister of India, demonstrates that
with full dedication, anyone can achieve remarkable success in their lives. The commitment
towards his work and prioritizing professional life over personal makes him different from
others and this is the reason he is popular not only in India but all over the world.
The CM to PM journey was not at all easy for him, especially when a person is in politics,
he/she faces a lot of criticism or ups and downs. In 2001, when he became the Chief Minister
of Gujarat, Narendra Modi might not have anticipated that within a year, his government would
face allegations. The Gujarat riots of 2002, were the reason for which his administration was
criticized as people thought that the failure of his administration was the reason of this protest,
people believed that they were not able to handle the situation and because of them the situation
became more worse. But In 2012, Modi was cleared of complicity in the violence by Special
Investigation Team (SIT) appointed by the Supreme Court of India. He went on to become the
state’s longest serving CM and took oath a record 4 times. Self- reliance and self- sufficiency
were his party goals for the state, he wanted overall economic development for Gujarat.
Therefore, he formulated plans and schemes for the state, and not only did he, as the Chief
Minister, but his administration also actively implemented them. This is one of the reasons why
the state of Gujarat elected him four times. After facing criticism for the riots Modi never give
up on his work but in reverse he worked ambitiously for the people and made a place in the
hearts of people.
Narendra Modi was already seeing highs in his graph but 2014 was a time that made some
people also believe that an ordinary person can also dream big and if you have a courage of
doing it, then for sure you will achieve milestones. Same is the case of Modi when he became
the Prime Minister of India, after serving as CM of Gujarat. Hindutva, sanitation and health,
economy, foreign policies, defence all were his major goals that he wants to achieve for India.
He is one the popular faces in the world but also a controversial leader as major decisions that
he took in his power falls him into controversies. Demonetisation, Article 370, CAA, GST,
Ram Mandir and Teen Talak all these big ideas were confronted by his party, for which his
administration faced a lot of criticism all over India. But there were some who openly supported
him also. Modi’s communication skills and confidence are one of the reasons that all over the
globe people loves to listen him. His Mann ki baat and Pariksha pe Charcha makes him famous
among students also. His party members truly believe that Modi as a leader keeps his
professionalism ahead of his personal life and he always actively participates in the party’s
workings and decisions. They also believe that he is one of the reasons that India is able to
maintain good relation with foreign countries and that India is holding a good position in GDP
over some countries. Currently, in 2024, he will fight for 3rd term as prime Minister and the
elections result will be announced on June 4. Let’s see will India choose Narendra Modi as PM
again or not.
