As he completes three years at the helm, Narendra Modi is on the cusp of joining India’s pantheon of great leaders

Where India Stands After 3 Years of Narendra Modi At The Reins?

Men it is said, make history—not the other way round. To do that, every leader of a country searches for what the popular film Kung Fu Panda called the Dragon Scroll—the key to limitless power. As he completes three years at the helm of the world’s largest democracy, Narendra Damodar das Modi has firmly established himself as a maximum leader. Especially after leading the ruling BJP to a spectacular victory in the recent Uttar Pradesh assembly elections. The man from Gujarat with humble beginnings is not just making history but is also seen as India’s future—at least for the next election.

SO, HAS MODI FOUND the Dragon Scroll midway through his tenure—the secret sauce that has enabled him to regain the aura of invincibility? And what does he need to do in the coming years to sustain that force to make India a vibrant and prosperous nation and take his place in the pantheon of leaders of modern India?

Each of India’s great leaders came with their own answers and solutions. Mahatma Gandhi searched long and hard for the wellspring of India that if tapped could drive a nation and its people to greater heights. After many experiments, Gandhi condensed that power to what he called the twins—truth and non­violence—which he described as the mightiest force in the world, infinitely superior even to the force of an atom bomb. And he harnessed that with the clarion call of ‘Quit India’ that resonated across a suffering, colonised country.
