There are reasons why the current administration is popular. In multiple areas they’ve done more in 10 years than what got done in 60 years prior. Piped water is one. Up to the late 2010s under 20% of homes had piped water. It’s now close to 80%, all done in the last 5 years. https://ejalshakti.gov.in/jjmreport/JJMIndia.aspx

Universal household electrification was completed in 2019-20. The rate of delivery of public goods and infrastructure is unprecedented.
