In an exclusive conversation with NDTV, senior BJP leader and Union Minister Kiren Rijiju discusses the key differences between the leadership approaches of Narendra Modi and Jawaharlal Nehru.
Rijiju argues that while earlier governments focused on five-year plans, Prime Minister Modi introduced a long-term national vision through the "Viksit Bharat 2047" mission. He explains why he believes setting a clear destination for the country is essential for development and highlights flagship initiatives such as Jan Dhan, Digital India, Jal Jeevan Mission, Fit India, and Khelo India as part of a broader strategy to transform India into a developed nation by the centenary of Independence.
