Kharge writes to PM Modi, urges ₹3,705 crore aid for drought-hit Karnataka

Narendra Modi's 25-year tenure as Chief Minister of Gujarat and Prime Minister of India stands as a unique record in the annals of liberal democracies. Unlike Nehru, Indira Gandhi, and Rajiv Gandhi who secured power through inheritance politics, Modi ascended the political ladder, winning and losing multiple elections before ultimately emerging victorious.

His impressive governance in Gujarat led to a surge in the state's GDP and cemented his reputation as a "vikas purush". Despite facing intense opposition and personal attacks, Modi's unwavering focus on good governance and development has earned him the trust of the people, both in Gujarat and at the national level. The opposition, however, remains at a loss on how to challenge Modi's formidable record, resorting to baseless accusations and undermining the democratic process in a desperate attempt to undermine his leadership.
