The Bharatiya Janata Party held a meeting in New Delhi on 22 August 2026 to finalise the nationwide roadmap for its 'Modi@25' programmes.
It was attended by BJP national president Nitin Nabin, national organisation general secretary B.L. Santhosh, programme in-charge Vinod Tawde, and state unit presidents, organisation general secretaries and state in-charges.
The campaign, named 'Seva Sankalp Mahotsav', is to begin on 7 September 2026 and run for about 15 days, ahead of Narendra Modi completing 25 years as a head of government on 7 October 2026.
It is built on four stated pillars - service, good governance, development and Antyodaya - and includes cleanliness drives, blood donation and health camps, tree plantation, welfare-scheme awareness camps and '25 Years of Narendra Modi' exhibitions.
Narendra Modi first took oath as Chief Minister of Gujarat on 7 October 2001 and has been Prime Minister since 26 May 2014.
Antyodaya literally means 'the rise of the last person'. It is the idea, associated with Deendayal Upadhyaya's philosophy of Integral Humanism, that a policy should be judged by its effect on the poorest and most marginalised person rather than on averages. The term recurs across Indian public policy - in the Antyodaya Anna Yojana, which supplies highly subsidised foodgrain to the poorest ration-card households, and in the Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana - National Rural and National Urban Livelihoods Missions.
Simple Analogy: Judging a bridge by whether its weakest plank holds, not by the average strength of all the planks.
Nitin Nabin took charge as BJP national president in 2026, succeeding J.P. Nadda, and is the party's youngest national president; he is a five-time MLA from Bihar and a former Bihar minister.
Antyodaya Anna Yojana (food security) and Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana - NRLM and NULM (livelihoods) are the two scheme families that carry the term into the syllabus.
Modi's tenure as Gujarat Chief Minister from October 2001 to May 2014 was the longest in that state's history, a static-GK fact that pairs with this milestone.
