'Go and win': Council of Ministers, led by PM Modi, Discusses 100-Day Action Plan after LS Polls, 'Viksit Bharat 2047'

Confident of a victory in the upcoming Lok Sabha polls, Prime Minister Narendra Modi along with the council of ministers brainstormed the vision document for Viksit Bharat 2047 and detailed action plan for the next 5 years. A 100-day agenda for immediate steps was also worked upon for quick implementation after the formation of the new Government in May 2024.

New Delhi:Prime Minister Narendra Modi along with the Council of Ministers held a meeting on Sunday where they brainstormed on the vision document 'Viksit Bharat 2047' and also held deliberations on a detailed action plan for the next five years.

Sources said a 100-day agenda for immediate steps to be taken after a new government is formed in May was deliberated upon during the meeting for its quick implementation. Modi, they said, asked his ministerial colleagues to go all out to win people's support during the polls, as he spoke about numerous measures taken by his government to boost development and ensure welfare of all sections of society.

"We will meet again after winning (polls)," a source quoted the prime minister as saying. Government sources said the roadmap for "Viksit Bharat" is a result of more than two years of intensive preparation and involved a "whole of government" approach involving all ministries and wide-ranging consultations with state governments, academia, industry bodies, civil society, scientific organisations and mobilisation of youths for inputs.

"More than 2,700 meetings, workshops and seminars were held at various levels. Suggestions of more than 20 lakh youths were received," one official said. The roadmap for "Viksit Bharat" has a comprehensive blueprint with clearly articulated national vision, aspirations, goals and action points, the sources said, adding that its goals include areas such as economic growth, Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), ease of living, ease of doing business, infrastructure and social welfare.

Several ministries articulated their ideas in the meeting, which is likely to be the last such get-together before the Lok Sabha polls are announced. Presentations were also made on various issues during the meeting. The prime minister had earlier asked his Cabinet colleagues to come out with "actionable, measurable and clearly defined plans" for the new government.
