New Delhi, June 10
Union Minister of Environment, Forest and Climate Change Bhupender Yadav and Minister of Law and Justice Arjun Ram Meghwal on Wednesday lauded Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, highlighting his contributions to India's development, governance and growing global stature as he became the country's longest continuously serving elected Prime Minister.
Speaking in Delhi, Yadav said it was a matter of great fortune for the country that India had witnessed new dimensions of development, security and prosperity under Prime Minister Modi's leadership over the past 12 years.
Yadav said the Prime Minister had strengthened India's position on the global stage while ensuring steady progress across various sectors. He noted that Modi, who is also set to complete 25 years in public administration since beginning his tenure as Chief Minister of Gujarat, has consistently worked towards nation-building and public welfare.
"It is a matter of great fortune for all of us that under the leadership of PM Modi for the past 12 years, the country has witnessed new dimensions of development, security and prosperity. As a democratic leader, he has enhanced India's prestige," Yadav said.
Meanwhile, in Puri, Union Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal offered a prayer at Jagannath temple and described the day as a significant milestone in India's democratic journey. He said Prime Minister Modi's tenure has been marked by development-oriented governance and efforts to improve the lives of citizens.
The Union Minister further stated that Prime Minister Modi has served the nation as a dedicated public servant and continues to work with discipline and commitment towards the goal of a developed India by 2047.
Meghwal said that under Modi's leadership, India's honour and reputation have risen both domestically and internationally. He also referred to the Prime Minister surpassing the tenure record of India's first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, to become the longest-serving elected Prime Minister in the country's history.
"It is a very special day. Prime Minister Narendra Modi began his journey to serve people, leading India with development and good governance. Under his leadership, the nation's honour has risen at home and abroad," Meghwal said.
The Union Minister added that prayers were offered in Puri to mark the occasion, with BJP MP Sambit Patra and party workers also participating in the programme.

While I appreciate the global recognition Modi ji has brought, I wish the government would focus more on farmer issues and rural distress. Development is not just about big projects but also about the common man's daily struggles. Nevertheless, congratulations on this milestone!
Wah Modi ji! From surgical strikes to Chandrayaan, from UPI to bullet trains - the transformation is incredible. And offering prayers at Jagannath temple shows our culture is respected. Jai Hind! 🚀🛕
A record is a record, but let's not get carried away. The real question is whether this has translated into better lives for the poorest. Also, we should never forget that Nehru laid the foundations of modern India. Both have their place in history.
PM Modi's dedication is unmatched - from being a chaiwala to becoming the longest-serving PM, it's a story that inspires millions. The development in Jammu & Kashmir, Northeast, and tribal areas is commendable. God bless India! 🙏
Honestly, I'm tired of all this political drama. Whether it's Modi or anyone else, I want to see better hospitals, schools, and jobs for my children. These milestones mean nothing if basic needs aren't met. 😞
