Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation, Shri Amit Shah, addressed the Manorama News Conclave 2025 in Kochi, Kerala today. 

Union Home Minister said that, despite the adoption of a multi-party parliamentary democratic system with good intentions, several flaws began polluting the democratic process from the third decade of independence. 

He highlighted that three issues—casteism, dynastic politics, and appeasement—were affecting the country's mandate like a festering wound. 

Moreover, the fourth issue, corruption, was not only hindering the nation's progress but also mocking the people's mandate.

Shri Amit Shah said that due to an atmosphere of instability, the country was deprived of long-term policies. 

After Shri Narendra Modi became Prime Minister in 2014, a new era of politics of performance began, replacing casteism, dynastic politics, and appeasement, 

and the entire country is experiencing this transformation today. He said that Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has successfully eliminated corruption both systemically and through policy measures.
