The BJP National Executive today lauded Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his leadership for leading India into a new era of diplomatic endeavours both in terms of enhancing nation's image overseas and also in helping improve relations in the neighbourhood. Briefing reporters, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari referred to recent standoff with China in Doklam sector and said Prime Minister Modi showed his political acumen and diplomatic skills by ensuring that the tension between the two neighbours is resolved.
In the political resolution adopted at National Executive meet, the party leaders reiterated the pledge to herald a corruption-free India. "Prime Minister has given the country a dream about 'New India'.....and everyone is committed to work towards that goal," Mr Gadkari said, adding the resolution was adopted unanimously. The resolution among other things lauded the party government and Prime Minister for its stand on Triple Talaq issue and that would ensure enhanced dignity for Muslim women.
Earlier in his presidential address, BJP chief Amit Shah lauded the government's welfare schemes. During the deliberations, Mr Modi and Finance Minister Arun Jaitley received standing ovation from delegates for government's decision on GST rollout and the demonetisation. As the National Executive in the capital coincides with birth centenary of RSS and BJP ideologue Deendayal Upadhayay, senior leaders said, the focus of deliberations at the meet has been to urge the party workers and leaders to work for the common man - a much cherished commitment of Deendayal Upadhyay himself.
