India's production and distribution of vaccinations was essential in providing desperately needed doses to underdeveloped nations. This strategy demonstrated India's status as a trustworthy international participant under PM Modi's leadership.
India's tremendous economic growth under PM Modi's leadership is a key factor in his popularity. To improve the nation's economic strength, his government has implemented several economic reforms. These changes have helped India expand domestically and have established it as an appealing location for foreign investment.
The "Make in India" program in India, which promotes foreign businesses to produce goods there, has produced many jobs and boosted the nation's economy. India is now a major global technology centre thanks to PM Modi's emphasis on digitization and technical advancement. Leaders and inhabitants of many other countries have expressed respect for these economic successes.
Indian diplomacy under Prime Minister Modi has improved significantly with regards to ties with other nations. India's prominence on the international stage has increased thanks to his pro-active foreign policy measures. Notably, the "Neighborhood First" policy has improved relations between India and its neighbors, promoting peace and collaboration in the area.
Additionally, India's voice in international affairs has been strengthened by PM Modi's participation in BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) and other international fora. India's impact on the world stage has grown because of his vision of a peaceful, prosperous world based on respect and collaboration between all people.
The rise in popularity of PM Modi reflects India's prominence on the international stage. The world is paying attention as India grows as an economic and geopolitical superpower. As the face of this revolution, Prime Minister Modi has come to represent India's rise in the twenty-first century.
An indication of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership abilities, India's economic expansion, and the country's growing international importance is his excellent 76% approval rating in the Morning Consult poll. He has become a true global leader thanks to his capacity to address global concerns, promote economic growth, fortify diplomatic links, and establish personal connections with people. PM Modi's popularity is likely to survive as India continues to assume a larger role in the international arena, opening an important chapter in the history of the country.
