Just wait to see what will happen once things have calmed down,” said a senior BJP official who spoke on condition of anonymity.
“The prime minister has ensured that the election manifesto is adopted as a vision document for governance and the promises made during the elections are taken seriously and kept,” said a senior member of the party.
The spell has been marked by the loss of his longtime ally, Shriomani Akali Dal, but that did not stop the prime minister from pushing ahead with agricultural sector reforms.
“Passing the farm bill cost the alliance enormously when a longtime ally Shromani Akali Dal withdrew. However, the prime minister was firm in his decision that the measure was crucial to empowering farmers and doubling the income of farmers by 2022, “said a BJP member.

However, various measures taken by him, such as the “Vibrant Gujarat” event, played a crucial role in the restructuring of the state. Later, the state became self-sufficient on several fronts, including energy production, after which the term “Gujarat Model” for development gained popularity, playing a key role in Modi’s popularity across the country, after which BJP announced as a candidate for prime minister in 2013.
