Taking stock of the Narendra Modi-led government's achievements and accusing the Congress of playing obstructive politics, the BJP national executive passed a 10-page political resolution.
Starting with the mention of the “demise of the UPA rule” after almost a decade, the resolution speaks about three main characteristics of the “Grand Failure”.
“First, indecisive leadership which instilled widespread policy paralysis; second, rampant corruption which depicted India as a haven of scams; and third, lack of transparency, accountability and good governance, which actually ensued from of the first two circumstances,” states the resolution.
It goes on to add that the Opposition parties are involved in obstructing the government's policies.
“We are also aware of the fact that these are the times of contestations (contest) between the Politics of Obstructionism and the Politics of Development. Political parties and entities that have been thriving on divisive and dynastic politics are now issuing false slogans of alternative politics while in reality they are indulging in political posturing. They are fighting amongst themselves while being disconnected from the real struggles of the country and its people,” states the resolution.
The national executive endorsed Narendra Modi's vision of 2022, with a roof for each family in India—housing for all, 24-hour electricity, clean drinking water, toilet and connectivity to a road for each household, access to means of livelihood—at least one person in the family should be unemployed and earning, medical facility in every village, a senior secondary school within 5-km reach of every child, increase in agricultural productivity, and better communication and access opportunities, so every Indian has a better chance at improving his or her life.
