The PM announced that the dream of a terror-free India would be fulfilled, pitched for minimal government interference in people's daily lives, and hoped for 100% productivity in the 18th Lok Sabha.
Speaking on the last day of the budget session, Modi said the people of India would continue to "bless" the outgoing Lok Sabha for its efforts.
"Reform, Perform and Transform has been the mantra for the past five years. This Lok Sabha passed many gamechanger reforms and the strong foundation of 21st century India can be seen in those reforms.
The country has progressed at a faster pace," Modi said, high- lighting the various feats achieved in the 17th Lok Sabha.
The Prime Minister announced that things for which generations had waited were fulfilled in this Lok Sabha.
"We can say with great satisfaction that many things for which generations used to wait were accomplished through the 17th Lok Sabha." He maintained that after the abrogation of Article 370, "full splendour of the Constitution was manifested" and the Constitution makers had blessed the lawmakers.
The PM said while social justice is reaching the people of Jammu and Kashmir, the government will fulfil the dream of making India free of terror.
Talking about the scourge of terrorism, the Prime Minister said many important people lost their lives in Jammu and Kashmir and the land was strewn with blood.
