Addressing party MPs at a meeting of BJP Parliamentary Party, he said nothing can stop the government from initiating development in the country, as it is committed to serving humanity and taking the country to greater heights.
He said the fight is not against the Opposition but against those power-brokers who enjoyed the benefits of power and after being dejected are indulging in negative publicity of the government and party MPs should not be drawn into it.
As it prepares to highlight government's achievements during the anniversary celebrations from May 26 to 31, the BJP Parliamentary Party, in a unanimous resolution passed at its meeting chaired by Modi, backed initiatives to ensure social security for poor and vulnerable sections of society and provide transparent and accountable governance.
"The BJP Parliamentary Party has commended Prime Minister Narendra Modi for arresting the drift in governance by infusing the much desired sense of purpose and for improvising the governance architecture through cooperative federalism, for providing transparent and accountable governance and for enhancing the country's standing and image among the international community," the resolution moved by Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said.
Union ministers, MPs and party functionaries will go to various parts of the country to tell people about the welfare measures taken for underprivileged sections and farmers as part of a week-long 'Jan Kalyan Parv' from May 26 to May 31.
Parliamentary Affairs Minister M Venkaiah Naidu said while BJP was pursuing "politics of development" some sections of the political class are keen to promote the "politics of poverty".
