RAMPUR (UP): Prime Minister Narendra Modi has brought a revolutionary change in India’s political sphere, and this transformation has jolted those who considered politics their “dynastic property”, Union Minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said on Monday.
While inaugurating various projects in Uttar Pradesh’s Rampur, the minority affairs minister said now a politician’s identity cannot remain dependent on a “family cradle” and only his diligence and hardwork can establish him in the field of politics.
He said now politics is not about “khandaani zamindari” (family fiefdom), but about serving people.
Prime Minister Modi has brought a revolutionary and far-reaching change in India’s political sphere, Naqvi was quoted as saying in a statement issued by his office.
This revolutionary change has jolted those who considered politics their “dynastic property”, he said.
The legacy of “champions of dynasty” is shrinking due to this revolutionary change in the political work culture, he said, in an apparent swipe at the Congress’ Nehru-Gandhi family. This significant change in politics has been realising the principles of Mahatma Gandhi, Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay and Ram Manohar Lohia, Naqvi said. The Modi government has made every section of society an equal partner of progress with the commitment to “reform, perform and transform”, he said. The government is dedicated to the welfare of villages, farmers, youths, poor and downtrodden, Naqvi said.
