Prime Minister Narendra Modi writes a letter to citizens as he completes one year in office where he lists the achievements of his sarkar

Here is how he begins:

My dear fellow citizens!

Service, in our Indian Ethos is the Ultimate duty -- Seva Parmo Dharma. One year ago, you has entrusted me with the responsibility and honour of serving you as your Pradhan Sevak. I have devoted every moment of every day, and every element of my body and spirit, in fulfilling the same with fullest sincerity and honesty.

We assumed office at a time when confidence in the India story was waning. Unabated corruption and indecisiveness has paralyzed the government. People had been left helpless against ever-climbing inflation and economic insecurity. Urgent and decisive action was needed.

We systematically went about addressing these challenges. Runaway prices were immediately brought under control. The languishing economy was rejuvenated, building on stable and policy-driven proactive governance.

Discretionary allotment of our precious natural resources to a few chosen few was replaced with transparent auctions. Firm steps were taken against black money, from setting up a SIT and passing a stringent black money law, To generating international consensus against the same. Uncompromising adherence to the principle of purity, in action as well as in intent, ensured a corruption-free government.

Significant changes have been brought about in work culture, nurturing a combination of empathy as well as professionalism, systems as well as breaking of silos. State governments have been made equal partners in the quest for development, building the spirit of Team India. Most importantly, we have been able to restore trust in the government.
