Speaking on the last day of the final session of the 17th Lok Sabha, he emphasized that the past five years were dedicated to reform, performance, and transformation in the country. PM Modi highlighted numerous game-changing reforms that took place during this period.
According to PM Modi, the country is on the path of change, citing significant events such as the revocation of Article 370, addressing the issue of Triple Talaq, and hosting the prestigious G20 meeting.

He listed various accomplishments of the government, including the Data Protection Bill, stringent anti-terrorism laws, removal of outdated laws, and the Women’s Reservation Bill. The achievements also encompassed the inauguration of the new parliament building and the opening of the parliament library to the public.
Everyone said we needed a new building. Everyone wanted it, but there was never a decision on it. We decided on it and owing to that we are sitting in the new Parliament today,”
PM Modi said.
He also spoke of the focus on marginalised people including transgenders, 17,000 of whom “received identity cards”. “We gave Padma awards to transgenders,”
he added.
In reference to the challenges posed by the Covid pandemic, PM Modi acknowledged that the last five years witnessed the “biggest crisis of the century.” He commended Speaker Om Birla for ensuring that parliamentary work continued without hindrance while upholding the dignity of the House.
The highlight of the period, however, was the abolition of Article 370, which granted special status to Jammu and Kashmir.
Many generations dreamed of one constitution but this house scrapped Article 370. People who had a role in creating the constitution must be blessing us today. The people of Kashmir were distant from social justice. Today, we took it to them,”
He said.
