BJP describes PM’s foreign policy as ‘Panchamrit’

The resolution passed by the national executive meeting did not hesitate in extolling Mr Modi’s achievements, such as his first speech at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in Hindi which revived memories of Atal Behari Vajpayee and energized the great national pride that all the countrymen feel, whether living in Bharat or any other part of the world. Secondly his call for accelerating reforms of the United Nations Security Council. Thirdly, his suggestion that the United Nations should become G-ALL has encouraged the world community, now divided into countless power blocs, to sit up and think. Lastly, his call for declaration of International Day of Yoga in the United Nations was adopted with record co-sponsorship and within a record time.

Apart from this, the resolution also highlighted Mr Modi’s commitment in placing the spotlight on the need for collective international action against black money, a vital national commitment in the pursuit of honesty, transparency and freedom from corruption at the G-20 Summit in Brisbane.

The resolution also lauded Mr Modi’s efforts to keep all sea routes including the South China Sea peaceful, open and safe at the ASEAN and also engaging with island nations in the Pacific and Indian Ocean regions marked a new thrust in our foreign policy. “For the first time Mr Modi has invited leaders of the Bloc of 14, small but significant, South Pacific Island nations at Suva in Fiji in September last year. Similarly for the first time, a new thrust has been added to our maritime neighborhood in the Indian Ocean region, which is critical to our security. The visit of Mr Modi to Seychelles, Mauritius and Sri Lanka in February this year enhanced the stability and prosperity of littoral states in our region,” the resolution pointed out.
