Modi 3.0 NDA government is in action from the very first day after the swearing of the prime minister and his team of ministers. It is obvious and crystal clear that 100 days agenda is ready and it is going be executed as the first priority. PM Narendra Modi on Monday began his third term in office by authorizing the release of the 17th installment of the ‘PM kisan Nidhi’ funds amounting to nearly Rs 20,000 crore. The move is expected to benefit 90 million farmers across the country .Everyone including his team of ministers ,PMO employees ,political parties and the general public know well the style of the functioning of Narendra Modi .Like Nehru ,Modi also believes not in delays and excuses for delays but in the work done .He means business and delivery of services and benefits to the people .He started his new inning on a positive note and began the work of governance from the very first day of assuming the charge of office. He has very well planned the works to be done in the 100 days and has prioritized the agenda of the government and his team of ministers will have to toil a lot to execute the 100 days agenda .Thus Modi has set in motion the governance of his coalition and he directs all his colleagues to act on the fulfilling of the 100 day agenda on priority bases for the country .Modi is a hard task master and knows well how to extract the work from his team of ministers.
PM Modi was sworn into office on Sunday evening. While the new coalition government is expected to recalibrate Modi’s existing plan for his third term ,here is the roadmap for its first 100-day agenda. Modi government 3.0 also on the very first day of assuming charge of office decided to allot money to 3 crore rural and urban households under Prime ministers Awas Yogna-PMAY for construction of houses. The revised structure of the centre ,with increased representation from the allies, is likely to tweak Modi’s existing plan of running the office in the third term .Notably ,in ,March he held a key cabinet meeting ,directing his ministers to create a roadmap for the first 100 day agenda of his potential new government .One key discussion likely to be added to this 100-day agenda could be about the controversial Agnipath military recruitment scheme ,which the non-BJP NDA partners want to be reviewed .
Besides the Agnipath scheme ,other initiatives and programmes on the centre’s 100-day agenda include implementation of the new criminal laws ,assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir ,Rafale M fighter jet negotiations among others.PM Modi takes first decision after returning to office .In the defense sector ,reforms in the Defense Research is on the cards .The Ministry of Home Affairs is likely to focus on a successful completion of the assembly polls in Jammu and Kashmir .Last month Amit Shah said that the centre intends to complete the process before the supreme Court deadline of September 30.The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways plans to award 3,000 Km of Highway projects in its first 100 days in the Modi’s third term .
It may also operationalize 700 km of high-speed corridors .The execution of a scheme for cashless treatment for accident victims is also on cards .The centre may also notify rules for the Digital Personal Data Protection Act[DPDPA] and introduce an amendment to the IT rules .The deadline to send suggestions on the draft bill ended on May 15.However ,several industry experts have sought further extension of this deadline due to Lok Sabha elections. The skill development ministry may introduce new -age courses to suit the changing industry needs as part of its first 100-day agenda. The proposed amendments in the Special Economic Zones law may also be in the list .A number of key economic bills have already been drafted and finalized and may be taken up over the next few months .Most brokerages and experts believe that the third term of the NDA government would continue with its broad policy stance .The government will have its plate full with a long list of important bills The 100 -day agenda of the new Modi-led government will now be reviewed to accommodate the economic policy positions of the NDA allies and policy prescriptions presented in the state manifesto where the BJP fought assembly polls in alliance.
The Narendra Modi government may rework its 100 day agenda to accommodate its partners wishes after failing to secure an outright majority in the just concluded national elections. The BJP may also have to incorporate policy prescriptions in state manifestoes where it contested along with allies .The latest plan is to discuss the 100-day agenda with all coalition partners ,senior leaders of Telugu Desam Party -TDP and Janata Dal {United} ,two key partners of the NDA led by Modi. Other NDA allies ,including the Lok Janshakti Party{Ram Vilas} and the Shiv Sena ,would also give inputs for the agenda. .Even before the government formation and the exit poll predictions giving BJP some more than 350 seats, Modi started serious deliberations on the potential new governments 100 -day agenda. There were brainstorming sessions to discuss the agenda for governments 100 day program .Day after voting concluded for the Lok Sabha elections ,PM Modi was busy with seven key meetings on a wide range of topics ,according to people aware of the matter The strategic meeting expected to an extensive and intensive discussion ,will outline the Modi governments priorities and action plans for coming months.
Before embarking on his mega election campaign ,PM Modi had told the top bureaucracy that their homework for the interregnum vacation was to prepare for decisions to be taken in the first 100-days of Modi 3.0.He made it clear to them that all the decisions will be made in the first 100 days of government formation .
Modi possesses the art of managing coalition government and it is expected that he will take all his allies in confidence for embarking the 100 day agenda of his government .The actual work for the coming 100 days plan has begun on the very first day of assuming office by PM Modi .In conclusion it can be said that Modi wants that his ministerial colleagues will work to give the results of executing the agenda of first 100 days of his NDA coalition.
