With the Narendra Modi-led NDA government set to complete two years in office at the end of this month, Union Minister Bandaru Dattatreya today said the developmental works undertaken by the Centre will create "history" and alleged Congress and Left were unable to digest its "development agenda".
The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government under Prime Minister Narendra Modi will complete two years in office on May 26. A month-long campaign will be organised from May 26 to highlight "achievements" of the central government among people, Dattatreya told reporters here.
"We are going to celebrate this as a two-year festival and it will focus only on what (works) we did. Previous governments used to promise more (to public). But, here this government...What works we did that only we will take to the people," the Union Minister of State for Labour and Employment said.
He said the Jan Dhan Yojna, Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojna, Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana and Atal Pension Yojna are the milestones of the present government.
"In every department - health, education, infrastructure, rural, this government has created milestones. We will go to people and explain to them the achievements and works done by this government," he said.
"The developmental works done by Narendra Modiji are going to create history and that's why our political rivals particularly Congress and Left are unable to digest and have been trying to divert this developmental agenda," the BJP MP from Secunderabad alleged.
Dattatreya also alleged that both the Congress and Left were unable to digest the popularity of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and wanted to damage his image.
"They have halted GST in Rajya Sabha. If they are really sincere they could have discussed and they could given more suggestions. But they created only disruptions. However, people will realise (obstructions made by Congress-led opposition in Parliament) with our positive campaign," he said.
"Now we have laid down a strong foundation (for speedy developmental works) with policy decisions," the minister added.
