Dear Friends,
I am a part of the silent supporters of PM Modi in this
Indian and Indic renaissance. Silent to the extent of just talking on social
media and debating with family and friends. I have not done much work beyond
that, but have absorbed a lot reading some great emerging Indic intellectuals
and warriors. I have learnt from many of you, and have collated the key
expectations we collectively have from the NDA-3 Modi Government from 2019-24,
building on the good groundwork of NDA-2 in 2014-19.
Many of the following efforts won’t face great judicial/
legislative obstacles from the Lutyen cabal, but require dedicated karyakarta
work.
Please note that many of these are not my ideas, but yours –
I have just collated them. Some action points related to the NDA government,
some to the BJP party and rest to the nationalist ecosystem.
So, what are our key goals – 2024/ 2029:
1. Vikas/
Development in all spheres – socially and economically
2. Civilizational
pride and security
3. Global
Super power - economically, militarily and culturally
4. Much
better overall and daily experienced governance
All support and feed into each other.
What are the roadblocks:
1. Poverty,
corruption, institutional weakness, low social indicators etc.
2. External
Inimical nations like China and its colony Pakistan
3. Internal
Enemies – MEWD (Maoist, Evangelist, Wahabis, Dynasts) – (if you prefer, you can
replace Maoist with Leftist)
The Big Picture
Economy
We are a USD 10 trillion (PPP) and USD 2.7 trillion
(nominal) economy with USD 7000 (PPP) and USD 2000 per capita (nominal). We are
3rd largest economy in PPP terms and 5th largest in nominal terms. But around
40% of the 29 crore households are below Rs. 2 lac/ annum income and need
urgent help.
We should be a USD 10 trillion (nominal +-20%) economy with
USD 7000 per capita (nominal) by 2030, IF this trend continues/ betters. So, we
would be 3rd largest in both PPP and nominal terms, with an upper middle-income
economy. We should also have a target that every Indian household should be able
to able to earn Rs. 3 lac/ annum as minimum income (in today’s earning power)
with own efforts and no doles – the basic Indic standard.
Civilization
We are effectively 70% Hindus in India (yes, 70%* -
explained below) – that is after losing 20% of Indian land to Pakistan +
Bangladesh – Baluchistan, and some to China. We can assume that only 30% of
this Hindu population (20% overall population) understands the Indic challenges
to some extent (mostly derived from minimum BJP vote share over the past 15 years).
The challenges here are the MEWDs, global MEWDs (D here
stands of global academics and media) and general lack of awareness among 70%
of Hindus.
For civilizational pride and security, we need to ensure
that demographically and culturally, we are 80%+ Hindus (ideally go to 84% as
per 1951 census) and 85%+ Indic religions – nationally and in most of
districts, atleast consecutive districts. Demography is destiny. Conscious
efforts are needed further that destiny. We need 2-way secularism.
Geopolitics
We want to emerge as a global superpower. China, with it’s
colony Pakistan, are our key roadblocks here.
Some of the listed action areas are:
(Most feed into other goals but have categorized for ease)
A. Civilizational Pride and Security
1. Have a
dedicated team (including cross country 10-20 MPs) with specific responsibility
for each
a. Stopping
Bangladeshi/ Rohingya/ others infiltration
b. Sending
back Bangladeshi/ Rohingya infiltrators (poor job in NDA-2)
c. Rehabilitating
Indic immigrants from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan
These can be done irrespective of delay in passing and
executing CAB (Citizenship (Amendment) Bill).
2. Kashmir
a. Preserve
what we have – Maintain and enhance Hindu demography in Jammu and Ladakh
b. Observe
19th January nationally as black day for Kashmiri Hindus exodus
c. Complete
boycott and punishment to any separatist (Hurriyat wants to live in Pakistan
after making Kashmir into Pakistan – why wait, shift to them existing
Pakistan)
d. Abolish
Art 370
e. Abolish
Art 35A – it is unconstitutional, anti-women, one way and possibly anti Dalit
f. High
support to patriotic Kashmiri Muslims – there are many
g. Settle 1
lakh ex armed forces men & 2 lacs (out of 6-7 lacs) Kashmiri Hindus in
Kashmir (Remember J&K population is only 1.3 crore – 25% of Punjab and
Haryana combined and 5% of UP)
h. Continuous
support to Indian people trapped in Gilgit Baltistan
i. Rebuilding
Martand Temple
j. Amarnath
and Mansarovar linkage with rest of India like Char Dham
k. There
have been many Bollywood movies on Kashmiri Muslims and Azaadi, how about a few
on Kashmiri Hindus/ exodus.
3. Completely
stopping Wahabi, Evangelist and Maoist funding
As Hindu Charter states, all 'institutional’ foreign-funding
must be banned. Only NRIs/OCIs/PIOs however, in their individual capacity, must
be free to donate to Indian religious institutions — including that of all
minorities.
https://swarajyamag.com/blogs/an-open-letter-to-mohan-bhagwat-chief-of-the-rss
Continue dedicated efforts for upliftment and empowerment of
Dalits, Tribals etc.
4. CAB and
NRC
5. Equality
for Hindus in religious and educational institutions
Constitutional amendments to Article 26 – 30 in the now lapsed Dr Satyapal Singh Private Member Bill - https://swarajyamag.com/blogs/an-open-letter-to-mohan-bhagwat-chief-of-the-rss
Constitutional amendments to Article 26 – 30 in the now lapsed Dr Satyapal Singh Private Member Bill - https://swarajyamag.com/blogs/an-open-letter-to-mohan-bhagwat-chief-of-the-rss
Amending RTE would take time and will face a lot of
opposition. We should use this opportunity to develop Hindu run schools.
Central and state governments should give a large grant and facilities to Hindu
run schools to enable them to shoulder the RTE obligation. This way, we can
support the Hindu schools to meet the competition.
6. Hindu
Temples – usage of funds
Once we free temples from government interference, we should
develop a code how temple money should be used. Temples have helped with their
assets when India comes under danger and they would be willing to do so now.
This should not be government led but by larger Hindu ecosystem (like Dharma
Sabha). Some initial thoughts about existing cash/ valuables as well as annual
offerings.
a. They
should retain 5 years of expenses as cash in hand (Microsoft model)
b. They
should use some part of one-time development and regular maintenance
c. Priest
salary should be benchmarked to school teacher salaries
d. They
should use money for developing new books, propagating existing books, holding
cultural festivals
e. They
should open new temples
f. They
should hold Shastrartha by rotation – with popularity of National Science/
Maths competitions
7. Historically,
ashrams and schools have played a large role in extending Hindu culture.
We have many old and new Ashrams – from Shakti peeths to Akharas to new ones like Ramakrishna Ashram, Sri Aurobindo Society, Arya Samaj, Art of Living, Patanjali, Mata Amritanandamayi Ashram, Sri Ramana Maharshi Ashram, Chinmaya Mission, Isha Foundation. We should help their expand to each district or consecutive districts. They can focus on their respective activities – some on Ghar wapsi, some on yoga, advancing advaita.

8. Each
state (atleast NDA ruled ones) should develop important civilizational cities
(Ayodhya, Mathura, Haridwar, Ujjain, Prayagraj, Varanasi) – making them important centres again. They should be large, with 20+ lac population, with modern infrastructure.
(Ayodhya, Mathura, Haridwar, Ujjain, Prayagraj, Varanasi) – making them important centres again. They should be large, with 20+ lac population, with modern infrastructure.
9. Declare
Ram Sethu as national asset
10. Building
and Rebuilding Temples – create civilizational spaces
a. Build Ram Janambhumi Temple – till matter sorted, lets
develop Ayodhya into a magnificent city to welcome Lord Ram
b. Build Martand Temple – no exiting structure so less
controversial (even Pakistan is talking about building Hindu temples)
c. Complete the Varanasi corridor (excellent work)
d. Start similar project in Krishna Janambhumi in Mathura
(to find innovative solutions for the time being)
d. Kedarnath development and Kumbh – excellent work, which
should be extended all over India in phases
f. Identify top 100-150 temples/ places of Hindu and Indic
civilization and develop them to world class destinations with purity. They
should become cultural hubs
11. Special
focus on districts where Hindus/ Indics are less than 70% of population
12. Ghar Wapsi
– both of nominal Hindus and converted Hindus
Aim should be to go to 80-85% Hindu population from current 20% and 70% respectively
Aim should be to go to 80-85% Hindu population from current 20% and 70% respectively
13. Movies are
the biggest medium to popularize our culture.
Very few people read historic/ cultural books. Sadly, more people know of Bajirao Peshwa from the movie than history books. Half of Bollywood hates us, but other half is with us – plus from Telugu/ Tamil cinema. Some movies that need to be made

a. Indo-Korean
movie on Ayodhya princess marrying Korean Prince and starting the royal dynasty
of Korea
b. Indian
teacher going to China and teaching them Kung Fu
c. Indian
King establishing kingdom in Indonesia/ Thailand
d. Movies on
Martand Varma, Lachit Borphukan, Maharaja Ranjit Singh, Maharaja Lalitaditya
14. Indic Tourism
Places like Rahigarhi, Lothal, Dwarka (submerged), Shivaji Fort should be converted into tourist worthy places with weekly light and sound shows.
Places like Rahigarhi, Lothal, Dwarka (submerged), Shivaji Fort should be converted into tourist worthy places with weekly light and sound shows.
15. Write
Indian civilizational books.
Many new Indic authors are writing many books – which is great from a scholarly angle – but most people don’t read so many books. Can we have an integrated 4 book volume which covers our epics, our history, our economics, our darshanas, our nitis, our interaction with rest of the world and relative position in the globe - with good details. More people should have basic and good understanding of our culture, and people who want greater understanding can read further. 90% of today’s generation don’t know the difference between shruti and smriti, or recite 5 Sanskrit Shlokas. If you ask most people, they would say Ashoka and Akbar were the greatest rulers in India. Maybe, but they should also know about 20 more in reasonable understanding.

16. Translate
world and Indian classics and contemporary books into top 20-30 Indian
languages
Indian languages are dying – people can speak them, but ability and willingness to read and write important and contemporary stuff in Indian languages is declining.

17. Yoga,
Ayurveda, Sanskrit and Cow – these can be the four pillars of Indian daily
life.
More R&D should be done in these areas.
More R&D should be done in these areas.
a. 5 years
of Yoga training (integrated with Indian martial arts) should be strongly
encouraged in schools. We should target that in 10 years, 30% of all Indian
school students have undergone 5 years of this yoga training.
b. Integration
of Ayurveda in allopathic medicine system
c. We should
aim to teach advanced spoken and written Sanskrit to 1 lac students (ideally
from all regions and all Jatis) every year – out of maybe 2 crore students
completing schools in a year
d. Develop
ecosystem for aged cows in rural areas on PPP model – government builds large
cow shelters with bio gas facility (one-time cost), and devotees/ temples/
energy from biogas pays for purchasing them from farmers and their upkeep.
18. Uniform
Civil Code
MEWDs have spread a lot of poison against UCC. Best way is to present a draft UCC – then people will see that its not imposition of Hindu religion. Involve secular muslims like Arif Mohammad Khan and Salim Khan (the film writer).

19. Cultural Council
Like we have Economic Advisory Council and National Security Council reporting to the PM, we should have a Cultural Council reporting to PM. It should have varied people like Dr Kapil Kapoor, Meenakshi Jain, Michel Danino, Subhash Kak etc.

20. English newspaper
We need a new English newspaper. Most of the English newspapers are filled with MEWDs, with limited opinion space for Nationalist perspective (no place in news or editorial). But Republic TV has shown that there is a big space to present a nationalist perspective – which is also well received by the masses (No. 1 channel from very beginning). Swarajya Magazine is showing the same. But we need a mass daily English newspaper – that is what influences top 20% of population and going forward, next 30% of population. With 5 crore dedicated BJP households, we should not have a problem having a circulation of 5-10 lacs (The Hindu has 12 lac and The Indian Express has 5 lac daily circulation). It should be targeted towards IAS aspirants, leading universities and upper middle classes across top 10 cities/ all state capital to start with.

21. Ecosystem
MEWDs have a full ecosystem developed over the years – politicians, bureaucrats, academia, media, lawyers etc. We need to develop a parallel ecosystem but without falling into the pitfalls of the former. We especially need a system of lawyers who can take Indic causes and take them to fruitification. Many new and young lawyers have come up, but we also need senior and established ones – ministerial positions could be long term objective.

B. Global
Super power - economically, militarily and culturally
1. 10X10X5
We have to digest the bitter truth that we won’t be able to match China in many aspects today and in the near future, especially as it colonizes Pakistan. We need to build better alliances – 10x10X5 strategy – 10x growth in relationship value across 10 nations in 5 years. US, Japan, Australia, France, Vietnam, Israel, Indonesia etc. could be natural allies. This 10x should be a combination of trade flows, investments, cultural and tourist exchange, technologies, defence and other specific areas. The needs and strengths are complementary to a large extent.

2. Russia
We also need to balance Russia so that it becomes neutral between India and China/ Pakistan.

3. Neighbours
We need to have an overly generous 80-20 policy framework towards the neighbouring country - Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Maldives, South East Asia. We yield to them in 80% of cases, they to us in only 20% but critical cases (like Bangladesh in taking back Bangladeshi immigrants, Myanmar in China supported terrorists).

4. China and Pak
Relations with China and Pakistan should be strictly on 50-50 basis – Don’t trust, keep verifying.
Relations with China and Pakistan should be strictly on 50-50 basis – Don’t trust, keep verifying.
5. Responsive policies
Balakot, Surgical strikes and Doklam showed that we are willing to give appropriate response to Pakistan’s terrorism and Chinese hegemony. These are institutional response. What about non institutional ones? One of the key failures of Kandahar blackmail was not that we released the terrorists under pressure, but that we did make it our life’s mission to eliminate them after the event where they be on the earth. (US/ Israel approach). The same continues with Dawood Ibrahim and Hafiz Saeed.

6. NSS
Evolving a National Security Strategy (NSS) and publicly making available the unclassified part of it.

7. Replicate
the Brass Tacks series of exercises 1987 involving the entire Central
Government. Conduct at least two national exercises to bring awareness and
preparedness where it should exist.
8. Restructuring
of ‘Ministry of Defence’
Effectiveness of HQ Integrated Defence Staff (IDS) - pass a legislation making all aspects of integration and joint functioning a legal necessity. This should include the entry of uniformed officers into the MoD too.

9. Faultlines of enemies
Regular Interaction and systematic support to Baluchistan, Sindh and Tibet freedom fighters.
Regular Interaction and systematic support to Baluchistan, Sindh and Tibet freedom fighters.
10. Cutting Edge technologies
Formation of a cross-functional technocrat team and regular benchmarking of India with US, China, Japan, Israel etc. on crucial emerging technologies - Artificial Intelligence (AI), 3D printing, Internet of Things (loT), 3D printing augmented reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), Solar Power, Electric Vehicles.

C. Development in all spheres – socially and economically
1. Poverty
elimination
The overall structure of Indian population is that the top
20% of 29 crore households are doing well in absolute and relative terms. The
next 40% have started doing well with trickle down effect. It is the bottom 40%
(especially the bottom 10%) which require urgent help. While the government is
doing its part, I believe that voluntary and targeted philanthropy by the top
20% towards the bottom 40% can accelerate the process. This innovation would
mean that one rich family helping two poor families on an average over the
course of 3-4 years. The focus should be on income generating asset creation
(land on lease/ buying cattles/ buying machines etc) for the bottom 40%
population. Here, facilities like Jan Dhan accounts can go a long way.
2. Urbanization
If India has to move from 40% urbanization to 75% urbanization over the next 25 years, the work for that has to start now. We need to identify 200 top cities (mostly current cities, with hopefully some new cities) in India which will support bulk of urban population. Should historically important cities like Ayodhya and Ujjain have just 5-6 lakh population?

Should historically important cities like Ayodhya and Ujjain have just 5-6 lakh population?
3. Tourism
We need a great emphasis on tourism. That is needed for economic development, upgraded cultural exchanges as well as projecting global strength. We need to work from the basics – cleanliness, air connectivity to smaller tourist places, much better budget hotels, marketing around the globe. India should have multiple (atleast 5) top class places for skiing, white water rafting, surfing etc. with international tournaments.

4. Revenues
Over and above our budget spending, we need 4-5 lac crore of additional revenues a year – 1 lac crore in education, 1 lac crore in health, 1 lac crore in defense capex, and 1 lac crore in debt repayment. So, we need to privatize much more – from 1 lac crore a year to 3-4 lac crores. We can publicly state that all this money will go towards education and healthcare investments.

5. PSU financial system
Merge more PSU banks. Banks Board Bureau seemed like a good initiative, but to my limited knowledge, it did not work.

6. Agriculture
We have been struck at 50% irrigation level for a long time. Like the government has specified goals in many areas, it should also state a specific goal – 75% irrigation by 2025 – with focus on micro irrigation and small ponds irrigation. We should aim at becoming an agriculture export superpower.

7. Import
Substitution
Unlike theorist, import substitution could have a specific role. Besides economics, it should be viewed from geopolitics, security, technology and job creation viewpoint.
Unlike theorist, import substitution could have a specific role. Besides economics, it should be viewed from geopolitics, security, technology and job creation viewpoint.
a. To
prevent supply dominance by an adversarial government (China in pharmaceutical
APIs/ electronics)
b. Future
mass scale/ important technologies (Electronic vehicles, solar energy)
c. High
employment industries
d. Inter
linkage industries (Healthier Steel industry solving PSU bank problems)
So limited time, slowly moderating tariffs should be
continued.
8. Employment
We need to shift atleast 25-50% of farmers to manufacturing/ services. Have many mid-scale industries (500-1000 crore revenue) in suitable aspirational districts/ Eastern part of India.

9. Energy
Have an integrated energy policy with following constraints

a. Per
capita energy consumption of say 2000 kWHa
b. Cost
effective
c. High
share of Renewables and gas/methane and less of Petrol/ Coal
d. Majority
of ecosystem within India or Indian control – including batteries/ panels etc.
10. Infrastructure
Already outlined by the government.
Already outlined by the government.
D. Much better overall and daily governance
1. Fast track the corruption cases against the key thieves
of UPA.
2. Have a much better and qualified ministry with addition
of specialists and technocrats.
3. Have a battery of experienced lawyers who can take on the
cabal of Congress ecosystem in judiciary.
4. Judicial and police reforms are areas where little has
been achieved – but lots needs to be achieved.
5. Technology usage in many areas of government – citizen
interaction has helped a lot.
6. Periodic media interaction of the Prime Minister (he can
choose the format/ newspeople) with daily media briefing by government.
7. Accountability
If BJP has to replace so many MPs and MLAs in each election, it shows that there is a big problem of governance. Ask any die-hard BJP supporter, and he will curse local BJP municipal person, at par with other parties. We need to have definite KRAs from MPs and MLAs etc. General people are less interested in attendance and how many questions you asked in assembly, although they can be also important. These KRAs could be -

- Amount
of time spent in constituency
- Actual spending of MPLAD funds (select projects which you
can get finished)
- Identify Top 20 tasks at the beginning of their term for
their constituency and how many they finished
- Specific common national goals – cleanliness, green
coverage, water table, cultural activities from above.
8. Succession Planning
People did not vote for a particular MP or even the party but for Modi ji. Modi ji will be 73 in 2024 – will the age limit apply to him? We would want him to continue atleast till 2029. But we have seen that a lot of Indian kingdoms collapsed as the king continued in throne till very late age. So he should think of succession planning in a couple of years from now.

* India started with 84% nominally Hindu population. Today,
that number is 70%. Let me state how – it was 79% in 2011 census. It has been
reducing by 1% every decade so we come to 78%. As per global Christian sites,
India has 5% Christian population, not 2% as they don’t respond correctly in
census to continue to avail benefits. So, we come to 75%. AITC, SP, CPM, DMK
and AAP together got 12-13% vote share in 2014 elections. Assuming 70% of them
were nominally Hindus, 40-50% of these are deracinated and effectively anti
Hindus. So that reduces Hindus by another 4-5%. So Hindus are effectively 70%
of Indian population, and that too divided on caste and linguistic lines.
Though that means of 50% of Hindus have voted for BJP in 2014 and 2019
elections – a good consolidation.
