New Delhi: 100 days of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s third term have been completed. This time PM Modi is facing a challenge unlike his first and second term. When the results of the Lok Sabha elections were announced on June 4, many people saw it as PM Modi’s defeat and raised the question that due to not getting an absolute majority, PM Modi’s style will no longer be the same. It was absolutely true that BJP did not get an absolute majority and a lot depends on the allies. But what changed in the government, did PM Modi’s working style change? Despite forming a coalition government, PM Modi did not make much changes in his cabinet. By making India a developed nation by 2047, by visiting Russia and Ukraine, PM Modi also told that there has been no change in foreign policy. However, some such occasions also came in the 100 days of the third term when the government had to step back.The first 100 days were a relief for the government
As far as the 100 days of Modi 3.0 are concerned, the government has achieved many of its goals. The opposition has become stronger in the third term and PM Modi is the target of these parties. PM Modi also understands this very well and does not miss an opportunity to target them. Just yesterday in Gujarat, PM Modi attacked the opposition and said that some people full of negativity are targeting the unity and integrity of India with the intention of dividing the country. People full of hatred are not leaving any opportunity to defame India and Gujarat. Modi said that in the first 100 days of his third term as Prime Minister, he was insulted, ridiculed and mocked by the opposition, but he focused on completing the development agenda of the government during this period. It is still early days for the government but the questions being raised about the alliance partners are not visible. India is still the fastest growing major economy in the world. Which is a big relief for the government. At the same time, more and more employment opportunities should be created; during this tenure the government seems to be moving rapidly in this direction.
What is the challenge before the government?
Looking at the style of the government minister and PM Modi, the third term will also look the same to some extent, but a change will also be seen on deeper look. Which is also being mentioned by the opposition. The pressure of the strengthening opposition is visible somewhere in the third term. The government has also had to step back on some occasions. The first case of the government’s retreat came to the fore in early August, when the Waqf Board Amendment Bill was sent to the Joint Parliamentary Committee. Soon after this, the Broadcasting Services Bill was withdrawn. The government published a draft in November 2023 with the aim of tightening the regulation of digital and other media. After that, in the month of August itself, the government withdrew an advertisement seeking applications for senior bureaucratic posts from people outside the civil service. There was a lot of uproar over this advertisement as well. It was said by the opposition that the government took back its steps after the question raised by it. At the same time, the government is facing the issue of caste census, which the opposition is constantly raising. After the election, reports of a rift between the RSS and the BJP also came to the fore.
Elections in these states after Lok Sabha elections
After the election results, questions were raised about Modi’s popularity. After these results, state elections are going to be held for the first time. The first election is of Haryana and Jammu-Kashmir, after which elections are going to be held in three more states. There is pressure to perform better in these states as well. BJP faces the challenge of saving power in the Haryana elections to be held on October 5 and the possible Maharashtra elections in November. In many surveys, BJP’s position in Haryana is not good in the elections. At the same time, eyes are also on how the party will move forward with its allies in Maharashtra. BJP also faces a big challenge in the Jharkhand and Delhi elections to be held by January and February. Even though these election results will not have any impact on the government, political parties will present the results in their own way.
