NDA freed India from Cong's 'vicious trap', says PM Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday launched a blistering attack on the Congress, saying the sluggish economic growth during its rule was cunningly dubbed the "Hindu growth rate" when it should have been named the "Congress growth rate" as it was characterised by a complete absence of governance. Addressing a conclave of NDA leaders on a day when he crossed the record of Jawaharlal Nehru's 4,398 days in power as an elected prime minister, Modi said a big success of 12 years of NDA rule since 2014 was that it freed the country from the Congress's "vicious trap" and asserted that the people of the country have understood the importance of political stability and decisive governance. "Unfortunately, however, in 2004, the country was once again caught in a cycle of instability," he said, referring to the Congress-led UPA rule from 2004-2014. He said the Congress dragged the country into multi-crore rupee scams.

In his 37-minute speech largely focussed on his government's achievements of the last 12 years and his vision for achieving Viksit Bharat, Modi said the dream of a 'Viksit Bharat' does not belong to a person or any party, but has become the resolve of every person in the country. "We recognise the challenges faced by the middle class, as well as their aspirations for a better future. To support them, income up to Rs 12 lakh per annum is now tax-free. Today, the country benefits from a simple and faceless tax system. Improved infrastructure has made daily life easier, and over the past 12 years, new opportunities have been created for the children, students and the middle class," he said.
According to a booklet released to mark the occasion, the reduction in income tax burden over the past 12 years reflects the government's vision of 'Ramrajya'. Reforms like GST, faceless tax, and Digital India have helped build 12 years of trust in the public system, which will support India in becoming a USD 5-trillion economy, the booklet said.
