National Democratic Alliance leaders met in Delhi on Wednesday to pass a resolution honoring Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 12-year tenure [1].

The milestone marks a significant shift in India's political history, as the resolution recognizes Modi as the longest-continuously serving elected prime minister in the nation's history [1].

Chandrababu Naidu, a leader within the NDA, moved the resolution during the gathering in the national capital [1]. The meeting included various NDA alliance partners who convened to celebrate the record of governance established over the last 12 years [2].

According to the resolution, the 12-year period of NDA-led governance at the centre has reached a historic peak [1]. This tenure surpasses the previous record held by Jawaharlal Nehru for the longest continuous service of an elected leader in the prime ministerial role [1].

The gathering in Delhi served as a formal recognition of development milestones, and political achievements associated with the administration's duration [2]. The alliance used the occasion to mark the completion of 12 years of governance and to solidify the coalition's support for the prime minister's leadership [1].
