On 26th May, 2014 when Narendra Modi took oath as the 14th Prime Minister of India, he had millions of eyes full of hope looking towards him for their bright future. He was expected to begin a new regime of governance in the country. As the leader of the world’s largest democracy Modi was aware of the expectations from his government and was determined to live upto the expectations, he gave a glimpse of that with his first cabinet decision by constituting Special Investigation Team (SIT) against Black Money, since then a new Era of typical Modi style of reformative governance has begun in the country. Modi government has delivered upon its pre poll promise of “Minimum government Maximum gover- nance” by taking 100+ reform measures in 20+ sectors to streamline the governance in the country. From a reform as big as GST to as effective as Neem coating of Urea, this reformative style of governance has touched every sector from finance to Aviation and has been of every kind from being administrative to behavioral.
