THREE COUNTRIES - FOUR DAYS - ALL FOR COLLECTIVE GROWTH




 

THREE COUNTRIES - FOUR DAYS - ALL FOR COLLECTIVE GROWTH 


Modi has become the best friend, philosopher and guide for most of the countries, as Modi's philosophy of growth is:

 

'Let Us Collectively Grow.

No More Competitiveness.

Let all your countries natural resources be processed and traded as value added resources by you alone.

And Bharat is with you.'

This is not a trade slogan but coming from Bharat's heart represented by Modi as PM. Modi means what he says and he is walking his talk. 


To make it effective and practical, Modi had evolved a policy of  'Act West' -  'Act WANA'


WANA stands for West Asia and North Africa which includes these 3 countries which Modi had just visited and signed many trade contracts and had also talked to the business communities at those countries to explain his policy of growth, green energy and combat terrorisms.


Earlier, India followed a relatively passive “Look West” approach. Under Modi, it became “Act West”, meaning: Proactive diplomacy, High-level visits, Strategic partnerships, Defence, technology, and connectivity cooperation across the WANA region.


This policy very well fits  into Modi's role as a Visva Guru.

High Lights of Modi's visits:


1. Jordan - 15 - 16  December 2025 

5 trade agreements - Greetings from Indian Community


2. Ethiopia - 16 - 17 December 2025

 8 agreements -  Addressed  Parliament - Vanthemataram sung at night dinner - Honoured with ‘Great Honour Nishan of Ethiopia’


3. Oman  -  17 - 18 December 2025

Free trade agreement (FTA) of Comprehensive Economic Partnership  Agreement (CEPA) - Duty-free access for Indian products across more than 98% of Oman’s tariff lines, encompassing over 99% of India’s export value - Addressed Indian Students & Indian Community -  Addressed Parliament - Honoured with Order of Oman (First Class).


As usual it was  very tight and hectic schedules which were adhered to with precision and perfect time management.


Even for an Editor, it becomes  a tedious job of collecting various data and information and photos for publication.


Now, we present visuals of the some important events along with a brief write up.

  Once Mohandas. K. Gandhi was reciting Quran in the temple of Valmiki Basti near Delhi.   Then a woman from the crowd got up and asked Gandhi not to do so. Gandhi asked: Why?   Then that woman said that it is against our religion.    Gandhi said. I don't believe so. ..The woman replied that we do not consider you worthy to give order in religion..   Gandhi said that the vote of the people present here should be taken. The woman replied whether religion could be decided by votes?.   Gandhi said that you are obstructing my religious freedom. The woman replied that you are interfering illegally in the religion of crores of Hindus.   Gandhi said: I wish to listen to the Quran, now.  The woman said: And I will oppose it inside our temple.   And then hundreds of Valmiki youths stood by the side of the woman and started saying that before getting the Quran recited in the temple, show us by reciting Gita or Ramayana in a mosque and then we will...

MODI – 3 - COALITION POLITICS

Image
Modi had the luxury of Coalition free rules in 2014 and 2019 with BJP having full majorities of 282 and 303 seats respectively. But the present 2024 Lok Sabha election, BJP could win only 240 seats which is short by 32 seats of the halfway mark of 272 seats throwing heavy burden and challenge on Modi resulting in coalition politics. The details of seats won by NDA headed by BJP and by INDIA bloc headed by Congress are tabulated below: Many BJP supporters including E-Touch were disheartened, as BJP alone could not win at least 272 seats in Modi’s third term as well so that Modi could rule Bharat without any coalition compulsions.  But a careful study of the seats won by BJP   + and Congress + gives an interesting and intelligent positions both for the two parties. The position is classically expressed in a post which reads as under:   On the lighter note (Courtesy: S.
