Narendra Modi as Prime Minister nine years completed. During this time the country saw many positive changes. Modi global leader emerged as. India’s credibility increased in the whole world. If India became an aggressor when needed, it was also seen neutral many times. In public interest, the government also took back its decisions.
During this, the central government also took some such decisions, which were opposed. Sharp questions were also raised. On the completion of nine years of the central government, discussion of nine such decisions, which were opposed. Many times the general public protested and some happened from the side of political parties.
- lockdown : In March 2020, the Corona epidemic had knocked. PM Modi came on TV on March 19 and made a humble appeal for one day Janta curfew on March 22. Told everyone not to leave their homes. The whole country listened to the PM’s appeal and there was silence on the streets. Two days later i.e. on 24th March, 21 days nationwide lock down was announced. The country was not ready for this decision. Everything came to a halt everywhere. In foreign countries, the poor and laborers were suffering from hunger. When everything was closed, people started walking from cities like Delhi-Mumbai to their respective villages. Together with the wife and children, they are running away after being saved from the lathis and sticks of the police. Got blisters on his feet. Later, the government relaxed a bit. Made arrangements too, but by then it was too late.
- Law : In September 2020, the central government not only presented three laws in the Parliament in the interest of the farmers, but got them passed in three days and made them law. Later, the farmers of Punjab started the movement and soon this movement increased so much that only farmers were seen at the entrances around Delhi. Political parties also gave a lot of air to this movement, so the farmers were also not ready to back down. The system made many efforts to fail this movement but did not get success. The crowd kept increasing. After months of agitation, the government withdrew the law.
- GST : In the name of one nation-one tax, the central government implemented GST on July 1, 2017. There is a dispute regarding this even today. There are continuous amendments in GST. These are happening so fast that even CA is confused. Many times they also do not get an idea as to what action has to be taken for the client. Things like diesel-petrol are still out of the purview of GST. This July, it will be six years since the system was implemented amid many protests and controversies. The big business community has been affected the most by this. He has to keep many types of accounts.
- demonetisation : On the evening of November 8, 2016, the PM suddenly came on National TV and announced the closure of 1000-500 notes. It was argued that this step would curb corruption. Black money will be banned. All that did not happen but there were long queues in the banks for months. There were problems in withdrawing money even for programs like marriage. From the general public to the political parties strongly condemned this decision of the government. The government was further embarrassed when almost the entire amount was returned to the banks. In the meantime, to remove public problems, the government issued two thousand notes, which has now been decided to be discontinued. The public is now silent on this whole issue or rather it has forgotten, but the political parties are still the aggressors.
- CAA-NRC: In December 2019, the central government brought the Citizenship Amendment Bill. Under this, arrangements were made to give citizenship to Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Parsi communities who came after religious persecution from neighboring countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan etc. The protest against this law started from Assam and reached Delhi. This movement also went on for months. After getting political support in no time, it became country wide. Since this facility was not meant for the Muslim community, the voices of protest grew louder. After a sharp protest, the PM assured the people that nobody’s citizenship would be taken away from these laws. For this reason, even after the law came, it was not implemented.
- Triple Talaq: The Narendra Modi government at the Center implemented a law regarding triple talaq in the interest of Muslim women, under which triple talaq was declared a crime. It was strongly opposed by some political parties, Muslim community and religious leaders, but progressive women supported the decision.
- Article 370 and 35A: This is considered one of the tough decisions of the Modi government, which is being opposed even today. The people of Kashmir had special rights under Article 370, by abolishing which the government followed the policy of one country-one law. With this, two Union Territories named Jammu-Kashmir and Ladakh came into light. This decision of the Center was strongly opposed by the local political parties, which is going on till date.
- Galvan Valley / Air Strike / Surgical Strike: In the conflict with the Chinese Army in Galvan Valley, 20 of our soldiers were martyred and 30 soldiers from there were killed. After the Uri attack, the Indian Army entered Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and eliminated a large number of terrorists, and in the surgical strike after the Pulwama attack, destroyed terrorist bases in Balakot, Pakistan. Political parties protested in all these three cases that happened at different times. Raised many questions. Now these issues have become counter-kirtan for the ruling-opposition.
- New Parliament House: In the era of Corona itself, the central government laid the foundation stone of the new parliament building and inaugurated it on 28 May. Political parties are opposing this building from the foundation stone till now. Some feel that this building was not needed now, while some say that when the country was in the grip of an epidemic, the government should have refrained from doing so. Due to these reasons of protest, about 20 opposition parties kept distance from the inauguration ceremony. The demand of the opposition was that the Parliament House should be inaugurated by the President.
