I believe, in our 3rd term, we will be able to do a lot more as part of the agenda.”
He further added, “BJP has its ideology and agenda in the right place. People join and people leave, and it is natural. I believe in family planning, but in politics, it is always about the more the merrier.”

The mention of the UCC in the discourse reflects the government’s commitment whereas he also reveals about CAA, a new law to be implemented before elections. He said, “CAA is one of the country’s laws and it will be implemented before the election this year. CAA does not aim at snatching away one’s citizenship as there are no provisions for the same within the law. It is about providing identity in the form of citizenship to those who have moved to India over the years.”
In conclusion, the speaker stressed the essential role of elections in democracy. They highlighted the upcoming election as an opportunity for people to endorse the government’s current achievements and expressed a commitment to even greater progress in the coming decade.
