With the modest third victory in a row by National Democratic Alliance (NDA) led by Narendra Modi, it is a historic moment for Narendra Modi and NDA form a government third time in a row. The main component of NDA alliance, BJP was poised for massive reforms for development after winning the election, but is not possible now as BJP has not achieved even simple majority on its own. Therefore, BJP has to drop off radical reforms such as UCC and similar other issues from its agenda.Though BJP and NDA have declared  in their election manifesto a number of issues to be addressed around poor class and middle class families; women, young and senior citizens; farmers, labourers and fishermans; MSME and  small traders; external and internal security, world class infrastructure, health, education, games and sports, technology and innovation etc for a developed India by 2047. However, in order to achieve this goal Modi 3.0 government needs to take bold decisions through policy reforms and robust institution building. Some of the issues that needs to be addressed on priority are:

1. Eradicating the corruption at bureacratic level: Though in last two tenure Modi government has been able to control corruption at top level, but still curroption at middle and lower level is there that make lives of common people miserable. Some external agencies for monitoring functioning and curroption needs to be instituted.

2. Administrative reforms: Administrative reforms needs to be taken to make bureacracy more accountable and efficient. A certain percentage of employees 5 to 10 percent must be forced retired every year those who are at the bottom in performance. However, screening should be objective and 50 percent external members should be included in the screening committee.

3. Tax reforms: More reforms in GST is required such as bringing petroleum products under GST. Corporate tax could be further ease out to attract more FDI in manufacturing and arrest flight of capital and industries to other countries. Those traveling abroad, having a vehicle of value more than Rs 10 Lakhs must be asked to file Income Tax Return.

4. Educational reforms: Education upto 8th standard may be made compulsory. Syllabus and course content must be uniform for all institutions and boards including Madarasa. From 6th class and onward one professional course must be compulsory such as masonary, plumbing, carpentary, book binding, painting tailoring, welding, security, etc. to make them skilled for a job if they don't continue further. After 9th standard, defence and security education may be made compulsory for two years on the line of National Cadet Corps (NCC). Quality of education at all the level needs to be improved.

5. Universal health services: Everyone should be provided free health services. If required entire health services can be nationalised.

6. Development of defence industries: More focus should be given on development, producton and export of world class defence products.

7. Development of food process industries: Food processing industries needs to be developed in cluster mode in those areas where agricultural production is very high. similaraly fish processing industries may be developed in coastal areas

8. Collective Security: India should strive for establishing a collective security institution in South Asia with friendly countries on the lines of NATO.

9. Equal right to all religious institutions: All religious institutions should have equal rights on their earnings, expenditure, and programmes etc.

10. Financial security for labourer working in informal sector: The labourers working in informal sector must have some provision of provident fund or pension by deduction a small amount of their daily wages and some contribution by government.

11. Rewarding innovations: Innovator in science and technology must be properly rewarded through financial incetives, tax reforms and recognition to create and promote a culture of innovation. 

12. Employment generation: Vacant posts in government and PsUs should be filled after rationalization of the posts. Focus should be there on establishment of more micro, small and medium enterprizes (MSMEs) through fanancial incentives and tax benefits that will create employment. More high class technical training institutes for skilled manpower should be opened so that they can get good employment in other countries.

Though modi 3.0 goverment is a bit constrained to take bold decisions due to relatively poor strength of BJP in 18th Lok sabha. However, if these above mentioned issues are addressed properly which are doable, then NDA can really contribute a lot to make India a developed nation by 2047 without compromising much with its allied partners. And hopefully, PM Modi will move forward towards overall development of India with same vigour and determination in his third tenure also. However, PM Modi will not deviate from its goal under pressure of allies, and if pressure of allies is unmanageable, he may sacrifice his government and go for a fresh mandate.
