NEW DELHI — On Thursday, India’s newly re-elected prime minister, Narendra Modi, unveiled his priorities for his second term — and fixing the weakening economy was at the top of the list.

After a campaign that focused on Hindu nationalism and national security, the Modi government adopted a more inclusive tone, saying that it had been re-elected to continue the country’s economic development and improve the lives of all 1.3 billion Indians.

“Empowering every person in the country is the main goal of my government,” said Ram Nath Kovind, India’s largely ceremonial president, in a speech to Parliament. The president is charged with conveying the administration’s agenda at the beginning of each new Parliament session.

To the nation’s hard-hit farmers, the government promised about $359 billion in aid — a sum roughly equivalent to the country’s annual budget — over an unspecified period. Small traders and shopkeepers, it said, will get new government pensions, and small businesses of all sorts will get government loans to help them grow.
