My dear countrymen!
Best wishes to all of you and those who love India and democracy from all over the world on the occasion of the Amrit Mahotsav of freedom, the 75th Independence Day.
Today, on the pious festival of the Amrit Mahotsav of freedom, the country is bowing to all its freedom fighters and brave heroes who continue to sacrifice themselves day and night in the defense of the nation. The country is remembering every personality, including the revered Bapu, who made freedom a mass movement, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, who sacrificed everything for the freedom, or great revolutionaries like Bhagat Singh, Chandrasekhar Azad, Bismil and Ashfaqulla Khan; Rani of Jhansi Lakshmibai, Queen Chennamma of Kittur or Rani Gaidinliu or the valour of MatanginiHazra in Assam; the country’s first Prime Minister Pandit Nehru ji, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, who integrated the country into a united nation, and Baba Saheb Ambedkar, who determined and paved the way for the future direction of India. The country is indebted to all these great personalities.
India is a land endowed with gems. I salute countless people from every corner of India whose names don’t even figure in history, but who have built this nation and have also taken it forward in every period.
India has fought for the motherland, culture and freedom for centuries. This country never gave up the pain of slavery and the longing for freedom for centuries. In the midst of victories and defeats, the aspiration of freedom engraved in the mind was never diminished. Today is the time to bow down to the leaders of all these struggles, the warriors of centuries of struggle and they also deserve our reverence.
Our doctors, nurses, paramedical staff, sanitation staff, scientists engaged in developing vaccines, millions of countrymen engaged with the spirit of service during this Corona global pandemic also deserve praise from all of us.
Today there are floods in some areas of the country, landslides have also occurred. Some sad news also keeps coming. The hardships of the people have increased in many areas. At such a time, both the Central and State Governments are with them in complete readiness. Today, the young athletes and our players who have brought laurels to India are also present in this event.
Some are present and sitting here. Today, I appeal to all the countrymen, those who are present here and all those who are present in this ceremony from every corner of India, that in the honour of our players, for a few moments let’s salute them with resounding clapping applause and show respect for their huge accomplishments.
Let us show our respect to the sports of India, youth of India and honour the young Indians who bring laurels to the nation. Crores of countrymen are showing respect to the youth of India, especially the athletes who brought honour to India with a thunderous applause. I can be proud that they have not only won our hearts today, but also inspired the youth of India and future generations with their huge achievements.
My dear countrymen,
While we celebrate our freedom today, we cannot forget the pain of partition that still pierces through the heart of all Indians. This has been one of the biggest tragedies of the last century. After attaining freedom, these people were forgotten too soon. Just yesterday India has taken an emotional decision in their memory. We will henceforth commemorate August 14 as “Partition Horrors Remembrance Day” in the memory of all the victims of partition. Those who were subjected to inhuman circumstances, suffered torturous treatment, they could not even receive a dignified cremation. They must all remain alive and never get erased from our memories. The decision of celebrating “Partition Horrors Remembrance Day” on the 75th Independence Day is a befitting tribute from every Indian to them.
For the country moving on the path of progress and humanity in the entire world, the Corona period came as a major challenge. Indians fought this fight with great grit and patience. We had many challenges. Countrymen performed extraordinarily in every field. It is due to the power of our entrepreneurs and scientists that the country is not dependent on anyone or any country for vaccines. Imagine for a ment, if we did not have the vaccine. How long did it take to get polio vaccine?
It was extremely difficult to get vaccines during such a major crisis, with pandemic plaguing the entire world. India might or might not have received it and even if it had received the vaccine there was no certainty of getting that in time. But today we can proudly say that the world’s largest vaccination programme is being run in our country. More than 54 crore people have received the vaccine dose. Online systems like Cowin and digital certificates are attracting the world today. The way India has kept the stoves burning in the poor households by providing free food grains to 80 crore countrymen continuously for months during the pandemic is not only astonishing to the world but also a matter of discussion. It is true that fewer people have been infected in India as compared to other countries; it is also true that in comparison to the population of other countries of the world, we managed to save more citizens in India but it is not something to be proud of! We cannot rest on these laurels. To say that there was no challenge, will become a restrictive thought in the path of our own development.
Our systems are insufficient compared to that of the rich countries of the world, we do not have what the rich countries have. Moreover, we also have a greater population compared to the other countries of the world. And our lifestyle is also different. Despite all our efforts, we could not save many people. So many children have been orphaned. This unbearable pain is going to remain forever.
There comes a time in the development journey of every country when the country redefines itself afresh and pushes forward with new resolutions. Today that time has arrived in the development journey of India. We should not limit the occasion of 75 years of Indian independence to just one ceremony. We must lay the groundwork for new resolutions and move forward with new resolutions. Starting from here, the entire journey of the next 25 years, when we celebrate the centenary of Indian independence, marks the Amrit period of creation of a new India. The fulfillment of our resolutions in this Amrit period will take us to the hundredth anniversary of Indian independence with pride.
The goal of ‘Amrit Kaal’ is to ascend to new heights of prosperity for India and the citizens of India. The goal of ‘Amrit Kaal’ is to create an India where the level of facilities is not dividing the village and the city. The goal of ‘Amrit Kaal’ is to build an India where the government does not interfere unnecessarily in the lives of citizens. The goal of ‘Amrit Kaal’ is to build an India where there is world’s every modern infrastructure.
We should not be lesser than anyone. This is the resolve of the crores of countrymen. But the resolve remains incomplete until it is not accompanied by the extreme hard work and courage. Therefore, we have to realize all our resolutions with hard work and courage, and these dreams and resolutions are also for effective contribution to a safe and prosperous world beyond our borders.
Amrit Kaal is of 25 years. But we don’t have to wait for long to achieve our goals. We have to start now. We don’t have a moment to lose. This is the right time. Our country also has to change and we as citizens have to change ourselves too. We also have to adapt ourselves to the changing era. We have started with the spirit of ‘SabkaSaath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas’. Today I am requesting from the ramparts of the Red Fort that ‘SabkaSaath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas’ and now ‘SabkaPrayas’ are very important for the achievement of our goals. Crores of people are getting the benefits of many schemes started in the last seven years. Every poor of the country knows the importance of Ujjwala to Ayushman Bharat. Today the speed of government schemes has increased and they are achieving the desired goals. We have progressed much faster than before. But it does not end here. We have to achieve saturation. All the villages should have roads, all the households should have bank accounts, all the beneficiaries should have Ayushman Bharat cards and all the eligible persons should get the benefit of Ujjwala Yojana and should have gas connections. We have to connect every entitled person with the government’s insurance, pension and housing schemes. We have to move ahead with a mindset of cent percent achievement. Till now, no thought was given for our street vendors, who sell their goods on tracks, footpaths and carts. All these colleagues are now being linked to the banking system through the SVANidhi scheme.
Just as we have made electricity accessible to 100% households, and have made authentic efforts to construct toilets in 100% households, similarly, we now have to move ahead with the goal of achieving saturation of schemes, and, for this, we do not have to keep a distant deadline. We have to make our resolutions come true within a few years.
Today, our country is working with speed on the Har Ghar Jal Mission. I am happy that in just two years of the Jal Jeevan Mission, more than four and a half crore families have started getting water from taps. They have started getting water from pipes. Receiving the blessings from crores of mothers and sisters, is our true capital. The biggest advantage of this 100 percent accomplishment rate is that no one remains deprived of the benefits of the government scheme. When the government operates with a target to reach the person in the last line, only then there is no discrimination and there is no scope for corruption.
Providing nutrition to every poor person of the country is also a priority of this government. Malnutrition and lack of essential nutrients in poor women and poor children poses major obstacles in their development. In view of this, it has been decided that the government will fortify the rice given to the poor under its various schemes. Will give rice fortified with nutrition to the poor. Be it the rice available at the ration shop, the rice provided to the children in the mid-day meal, or the rice available through every scheme, it shall be fortified by the year 2024.
Today, the campaign to provide better health facilities to every poor in the country is also going on at a fast pace. For this, important reforms have also been made in medical education. Equal attention has been paid to preventive healthcare. Simultaneously, there has been a substantial increase in the number of medical seats in the country. Under the Ayushman Bharat scheme, quality health services are being provided to every village in the country. Affordable medicines are being made available to the poor and middle class through Jan Aushadhi Yojana. So far, more than 75 thousand Health and Wellness centers have been set up. At the block level too, modern health infrastructure is being exclusively set up on a network of good hospitals and modern labs. Very soon thousands of hospitals in the country will also have their own oxygen plants.
To take India to new heights in the 21st century, the optimal utilisation of India’s potential is the need of the hour.
This is extremely important. For this, we need to provide hand holding to the backward categories and sectors. Alongwith the concern of fulfilling the basic needs, reservation is being ensured for the Dalits, Backward classes, Adivasis and the poor people from general category. More recently, in the field of medical education, reservation has also been ensured for the OBC category in the All India quota. By formulating a law in Parliament, the right to make their own list of OBC has been given to the states.
Just as we are making sure that no person or no class should be left behind in the development journey of society, similarly no part of the country, no corner of the country should be left behind. Development should be all-round, development should be all-pervasive, development should be all-inclusive. We are now accelerating the efforts that have been made in the last seven years to bring forward such backward areas of the country. Be it the eastern India, the North-east, Jammu-Kashmir, Ladakh including the entire Himalayan region, be it our coastal belt or the tribal region, these regions are going to turn into a major foundation for India’s development in future, India’s development journey.
Today a new history of connectivity is being written in the North-East. This is a connectivity of both the hearts and the infrastructure. Very soon the work of connecting all the state capitals of the North-East with rail service is going to be completed. Under the Act-East Policy, today North-East, Bangladesh, Myanmar and South-East Asia are also being connected. Due to the efforts made in the past years, now the enthusiasm for the creation of Shreshtha Bharat and long lasting peace in the North-East has increased manifold.
There is a huge potential in the fields of tourism, adventure sports, organic farming, herbal medicine, and oil palm in the North East. We have to fully harness this potential and make it a part of the development journey of the country. And we have to complete this work within a few decades of the ‘Amrit kaal’. Giving a fair opportunity to the capabilities of all is the true spirit of democracy. Be it Jammu or Kashmir, the balance of development is now visible on the ground.
The Delimitation Commission has been constituted in Jammu and Kashmir and preparations are also going on for the assembly elections. Ladakh has also progressed towards its limitless possibilities of development. On one hand Ladakh is witnessing the creation of modern infrastructure, while on the other hand Sindhu Central University is also making Ladakh a center of higher education.
In this decade of the 21st century, India will further accelerate its efforts towards the Blue Economy. Along with aquaculture, we have to take full advantage of the new possibilities that are emerging in the cultivation of seaweed. The Deep Ocean Mission is the result of our ambition to explore the unlimited possibilities of the ocean. The mineral wealth which is hidden in the sea, the thermal energy which is in the sea water, can give new heights to the development of the country.
We have also awakened the aspirations of the districts of the country believed to have been left behind. Priority is being given to schemes related to education, health, nutrition, roads and employment in more than 110 aspirational districts in the country. Many of these districts are in our tribal areas. We have created a spirit of healthy competition for development among these districts. There is a strong competition going on in that direction so that these aspirational districts are at par with other districts of India.
Capitalism and socialism are discussed a lot in the world of economics, but India also emphasizes cooperativism. Cooperativism is also compatible with our traditions and values. Cooperativism, in which the collective power of the masses becomes the driving force of the economy, is important for the country’s grassroots level economy. Co-operatives are not just a system with a network of laws and rules, but co-operative is a spirit, culture, and a mindset of collective growth. We have taken steps to empower them by forming a separate ministry. We have taken this step to empower the cooperative sector in the states.
We will have to put all our efforts to build a new economy in the villages in this decade. Today we can see our villages changing rapidly. In the last few years, our government has provided roads and electricity to the villages. Now these villages have been strengthened with optical fiber network data and the Internet. Digital entrepreneurs are emerging in the villages also. The more than eight crore sisters in the villages, who are associated with Self-Help Groups, design top-end products. Now the government will also prepare an e-commerce platform for their products so that get a big market in our country and abroad. Today, when the country is moving forward with the mantra of Vocal for Local, this digital platform will connect the products of women self-help groups with people across the length and breadth of the country as well as internationally. Their horizon shall thus get enhanced.
During Corona, the country has witnessed the power of technology, as well as the commitment and capabilities of our scientists. The scientists of our country are working very diligently and strategically across the expanse of the country. Now the time has come for us to integrate the capabilities of scientists and their suggestions in our agriculture sector as well. Now we cannot wait any longer. We have to leverage this strength. This will go a long way in increasing the production of fruits, vegetables and grains along with giving food security to the country. Thus we shall catapult ourselves strongly into the world orbit.
Amongst these concerted efforts, we need to take cognizance of a major challenge posed in our agriculture sector. Challenge of shrinking of land of villagers which is due to immense rise in population, and smaller land holdings due to the divisions happening in the family. Farming land has shrunk alarmingly. More than 80 percent of the farmers of the country are those who have less than two hectares of land. If we see, 80 out of 100 farmers have less than two hectares of land i.e. the farmers of our country are practically in the small farmer category. Unfortunately, this segment remained eliminated from the benefits in our yesteryear’s policies. They did not get their due importance. Now, keeping in mind these small farmers in the country, agricultural reforms are being undertaken, and critical decisions are being taken to benefit them.
Whether the improvement in the crop insurance scheme or important decision of increasing the MSP by one and a half times; a system to provide loans from banks at cheaper rates through Kisan Credit Card; taking the schemes related to solar power to the farm, formulate a Farmer Producer Organization. All these efforts will increase the power of the small farmer. In the coming times, a campaign will also be launched to create a warehouse facility up to the block level.
Keeping in mind the small expenses of every small farmer, PM KisanSamman Nidhi Yojana is being run. So far, more than 1.5 lakh crores have been deposited directly into the bank accounts of more than ten crore farmer families. The small farmer is now our resolve and mantra for us. The small farmer becomes the country’s pride…. the small farmer becomes the nation’s pride. This is our dream. In the coming years, we will have to increase the collective power of the small farmers of the country. New facilities have to be provided.
Today, Kisan Rail is plying on more than 70 rail routes of the country. Kisan Rail can help small farmers with this modern facility to reach far flung areas on a low cost of produce and transportation. Several products like Kamalam, Shahi litchi, BhutJolokiachillis, black rice or turmeric are being exported to different countries of the world. Today, the country feels delighted when the aroma of these products produced in the soil of India reaches different countries of the world. Today the world is developing a taste for the vegetables and food grains grown in the fields of India.
Swamitva Yojana is an example of one of the initiatives taken to boost the capabilities of the villages today. We all know what happens to the price of land in villages. They do not get any loan from the banks on the basis of land, despite being the owners of the land because no work had been done in terms of documents of rural land for several years. People do not have this system. The Swamitva scheme attempted to change this situation. Today every village, every house, every land is being mapped through drones. The data and property papers of village lands are being uploaded online. With this, not only the disputes related to land in the villages are being ended, but a system has also been created for the people of the village to get loans easily from the banks. The lands of village poor should be the foundation for development rather than disputes. And the country is moving in the same direction today.
When Swami Vivekananda used to talk about the future of India, when he used to see the magnificence of Mother Bharati in front of his eyes, he used to say – Try to look into the past as far as possible. Drink the water of the ever new spring flowing back there, and after that, look ahead. Go ahead and make India brighter, greater & better than ever. In this 75th year of independence, it is our duty to move forward believing in the immense potential of the country. We have to work together for new generation infrastructure; we have to work together for world class manufacturing; we have to work together for cutting edge innovations; we have to work together for new age technology.
The foundation of progress in the modern world lies on modern infrastructure. It also fulfills the needs and aspirations of the middle class. Weak infrastructure derails the pace of development and the urban middle class also suffers.
We have to work together for next generation infrastructure, for world class manufacturing, for cutting edge innovation and for New Age technology.
Realizing this need, the country has demonstrated extraordinary speed and scale in every field from the seas, land to the skies. Rapid progress is underway whether it is development of new waterways or connecting new places with seaplanes. Indian Railways is also rapidly adapting to its modern avatar. The country has resolved to celebrate the Amrit Mahotsav of independence. You would know that we have decided to celebrate this Amrit Mahotsav of independence for 75 weeks. It started from 12th March and will continue till 15th August, 2023. We have to move forward with new enthusiasm and, therefore, the country has made a very important decision.
During these 75 weeks of the Amrit Mahotsav of Independence, 75 Vande Bharat trains will connect every corner of the country. The pace at which new airports are being built in the country and the UDAN scheme connecting remote areas is unprecedented. We can see how better air connectivity gives new flights to people’s dreams.
Along with modern infrastructure, there is a great need for adopting a holistic and integrated approach in infrastructure construction. In the near future, we are going to launch the National Master Plan of Prime Minister ‘Gati Shakti’ which will be a huge scheme and fulfill the dreams of crores of countrymen. This scheme of more than 100 lakh crores rupees will result in new employment opportunities for lakhs of youth.
Gati Shakti will be a National Infrastructure Master Plan for our country which will lay the foundation of holistic Infrastructure and will lead to an integrated and holistic pathway to our economy. Right now, there is no coordination between our means of transport. Gati Shakti will break the silos, and will remove all these obstacles. This will reduce the travel time for the common man and the productivity of our industry will also increase. Gati Shakti will also go a long way in making our local manufacturers globally competitive and this will also develop new possibilities for the creation of future economic zones. In this decade, the power of speed will form the basis of India’s transformation.
India will have to increase both its manufacturing and exports while moving ahead on the path of development.
Treading ahead on the path of development, India will have to augment both its manufacturing and exports. You have witnessed, just a few days ago, India launched its first indigenous Aircraft Carrier INS Vikrant for trial in the sea. Today India is making its own indigenous fighter aircraft, its own submarine. Gaganyaan is also slated to hoist India’s flag in space. This itself is evidential of our immense capabilities in indigenous manufacturing.
The country has also announced Production Linked Incentive to consolidate our Make in India campaign in the wake of the new economic conditions that have emerged due to Corona. The electronic manufacturing sector stands as an example of the change that is enforced through this scheme. Seven years ago we used to import mobile phones worth about eight billion dollars. However, now the import has reduced considerably, and today we are also exporting mobile phones worth three billion dollars.
Today, when our manufacturing sector is gaining momentum, our focus should be that whatever we make in India should be of highest quality standards so that we sustain in the global competition. Rather, if possible we should aim at going a step ahead and take proactive steps to prepare ourselves for the global market. We have to target that. I want to say emphatically to all the manufacturers of the country, that you should never forget that the product you sell overseas is not just a product made by your company, it is the identity of our nation, India’s prestige and the faith of all the citizens of our country.
My dear countrymen
That is why I tell all our manufacturers that each of your products is a brand ambassador of India. When someone will buy and use your product, the customer should say with pride- now “This is Made in India”. That’s the mindset we need. You all should now aspire to win over the global market. The government is fully with you in realising this dream.
Today, several new start-ups are being formed in different sectors of the country and even in smaller tier 2, tier 3 cities of the country. They also have a big role to play in getting entry of their Indian products into the inter-state market.The government stands with all its might, with these start-ups. Whether it is giving them financial help, cash discounts, rules simplification for them, the government is fully with them. We have seen that thousands of new start-ups have emerged in this difficult period of Corona. They are moving forward with great success. Yesteryear’s start-ups are becoming today’s unicorns. Their market value is reaching thousands of crores of rupees.
These are new types of wealth creators in our country today. They are standing on their feet with the power of their unique ideas, moving ahead and walking with the dream of conquering the world. They are new kinds of wealth creators. They are moving by the force of their unique ideas and a dream to win over the world. In this decade, we need to relentlessly work towards making India’s Startups and the Startup Ecosystem the best in the whole world.
My countrymen,
Political will is needed to bring about major changes and reforms. Today the world is witnessing that there is no dearth of political will in India. Good and smart governance is required to implement the reforms. Today the world is also a witness to how India is writing a new chapter of governance here. In this decade of ‘Amrit Kaal’, we will give priority to Next Generation reforms… We will ensure that all the facilities like service delivery should reach citizens up to the last mile; it should reach the last person seamlessly, without hesitation or any kind of difficulty. For the overall development of the country, unnecessary interference by the government and the government processes in the lives of the people has to be ended.
Earlier, the government itself was on the driving seat. This might have been the demand of that time. But now the time has changed. In the last seven years, efforts have also intensified in the country to liberate the people of the country from the web of unnecessary laws and procedures. Till now hundreds of old laws of the country have been abolished. Even during this period of Corona pandemic, the government has abolished more than 15,000 compliances. Now you see, you might have experienced a lot of hassles and paperwork for a small government work. That has been the situation so far. We have ended 15,000 compliances.
Just imagine…..I want to give you an example. A law has been in place in India for over 200 years, 200 years i.e. even before 1857. As per this law, the citizens of the country did not have the right to create maps. Now imagine, it was in place since 1857. If you want to create a map, then seek permission from the government, if you want to print the map in a book, then seek permission from the government; there is a provision for arrest if the map is lost. Nowadays every phone has a Map app. Satellites have so much power! Then how will we take the country forward with a burden of such laws? It is very important to get rid of this burden of compliances. We have abolished several regulations in various sectors like mapping, space, information technology and BPO.
Freedom from the clutches of unnecessary laws is very important for both Ease of Living as well as Ease of Doing Business. Our country’s industries and businesses are experiencing this change today.
Today dozens of labor laws have been subsumed into just 4 codes. Tax related arrangements have also been made easy and become faceless now. We will have to work together so that such reforms are not limited to the government only, but percolate down to gram panchayats, municipal corporations and municipalities. I am calling upon, making an earnest appeal to all the central and state departments to launch a campaign to review the existing rules and procedures. We have to get rid of every rule, every process which has become a hindrance and a burden for the people of the country. I know what has accumulated in 70-75 years will not go away in a day or in a year. But if we start working with a purpose, we will definitely be able to do this.
Keeping this in mind, the government has also started Mission Karmayogi and Capacity Building Commission to increase people-centric approach in bureaucracy and improve their efficiency.
Our education, education system, education tradition has a great role in preparing the youth, who are possessed with skill and ability, and who have the spirit to do something for the country. Today the country also has a new National Education Policy to meet the needs of the 21st century. Now our children will neither stop due to lack of skills nor will they be bound by language barriers. Unfortunately, there is a massive divide in our country regarding language. We have tied a huge talent of the country to the cage of language. One can find promising people in their mother tongue. If people from the vernacular medium come forward, their self-confidence will grow. Justice will be done to the potential of the poor children when they will become professionals by studying in their mother tongue.
I believe that language is the instrument of the fight against poverty in the new National Education Policy. This new National Education Policy is also going to be a great tool to fight against poverty in a way. The basis of winning the war against poverty is also the education, prestige and importance of the vernacular language. The country has seen this in the playground… and we are experiencing that language has not become a barrier and as a result we have seen that the youth are playing and blossoming. Now the same thing will happen in other fields of life as well.
Another special feature of the new National Education Policy is that sports has been made a part of mainstream education instead of extra-curricular. Sports is also one of the most effective means of pursuing life. It is very important to have sports in life for perfection in life. There was a time when sports was not considered mainstream. Parents also considered indulging in sports as wastage of life. Now, there is a new awareness about fitness and sports. We have seen and felt this in the olympics. This change is a big turning point for us. That is why, we need to speed up and expand the campaign that is going on in the country for infusing talent, technology and professionalism in sports.
It is a matter of pride for the country that our daughters are performing in an unprecedented manner in the fields of education, sports, Boards results or olympics. Today daughters are raring to occupy their place. We have to ensure that women have equal partnership in every career and workspace. We have to ensure that they feel safe from roads to the workplace and everywhere. There should be a feeling of respect for them and in this, the government, administration, police and justice system will have to perform their duty cent percent. We have to make this resolution , the resolution of the 75 years of Independence.
Today I am sharing good news with the countrymen. I used to get lakhs of messages from our daughters that they want to study in the Sainik Schools. The Doors of the schools should be opened for them. We dis aq pilot project in the Sainik School of Mizoram two-two and half years ago by giving admission to our daughters. Now the Government has decided that all the Sainik Schools will be open for the girls. Daughter too will study in all the Sainik Schools of the Country.
Environmental security is getting the same importance in the world as national security.Today India is a vibrant voice of environmental security, whether it is biodiversity or land neutrality, climate change or waste recycling, organic farming or biogas, energy conservation or clean energy transition. India’s efforts in environment are giving results today. Increase in forest cover, number of national parks, increase in number of tigers and Asiatic lions are a matter of happiness for the countrymen.
Among all these successes one truth needs to be understood. India is not yet energy independent. India today spends more than 12 lakh crore rupees annually for importing energy. For India’s progress and to build a self-reliant India, India’s energy independence is the need of the hour! Therefore today, India has to make a resolution to make India energy independent before the completion of 100 years of independence and our roadmap is very clear for the same. It should be a gas based economy. There should be a network of CNG & PNG across the country. There should be a target of 20 percent ethanol blending. India is moving ahead with a set goal. India has also made a move towards Electric Mobility and the work on 100% electrification of Railways is also progressing at a fast pace. Indian Railways has set a target of becoming Net Zero Carbon Emitter by 2030. Besides these efforts, the country is also emphasizing on Mission Circular Economy. Our Vehicle Scrap Policy is a great example of the same. Today, India is the only country in the group of G-20 countries, which is moving fast towards achieving its climate goals.
India has set a target of 450 GW of renewable energy by the end of this decade – 450 GW by 2030. Of this, the target of 100 GW has been achieved by India ahead of schedule. These efforts are also instilling confidence in the world. The formation of the International Solar Alliance on the Global State is a great example of the same.
Of every effort being made by India today, the thing that is going to help India with a quantum leap in terms of climate is the field of Green Hydrogen. To achieve the goal of Green Hydrogen, I am announcing the National Hydrogen Mission today with this tricolour as a witness. We have to make India a Global Hub for Green Hydrogen Production and Export in the ‘Amrit Kaal’. This will not only help India to make a new progress in the field of energy self-reliance but will also become a new inspiration for Clean Energy Transition all over the world. New opportunities from Green Growth to Green Job are opening up today for our start-ups & youth.
Today, the 21st century India has the ability to create and achieve big goals as well. Today India is also solving those subject areas, which were hanging fires for decades and centuries. Be it a historic decision to abrogate Article 370, introduction of GST, a system that frees the country from the web of taxes, a decision regarding ‘One Rank-One Pension’ for our military friends, a peaceful solution to the Ram Janmabhoomi issue, we have seen it come true in a few years
India’s willpower is realizing all the resolutions whether it is the Bru-Reang agreement in Tripura after decades, constitutional status to the OBC commission or the BDC and DDC elections in Jammu and Kashmir for the first time since independence.
Even in this period of Corona, record foreign investment is coming to India. India’s foreign exchange reserves are also at an all-time high. India has also given the message of the might of New India to the enemies of the country by carrying out surgical and air strikes. It shows that India is changing. India can change. India can take the toughest decisions and it does not hesitate and stop in taking even the toughest decisions.
The nature of global relations has changed after the Second World War. There is a possibility of a new world order post Corona. The world has seen and appreciated India’s efforts during Corona. Today the world is looking at India from a new perspective. There are two important aspects of this perception — one is terrorism and the other is expansionism. India is fighting both these challenges and is also responding strongly in a restrained manner. Our defense preparedness has to be equally strong if India has to fulfil its obligations properly.
We are making constant efforts to provide new opportunities to our hardworking entrepreneurs and to encourage Indian companies to make the country self-reliant in the field of defence. I assure the country that we will leave no stone unturned to strengthen the hands of our forces engaged in the defense of the country.
Today is also the birth anniversary of the great thinker of the country, Sri Aurobindo. His 150th birth anniversary will be celebrated in 2022. Sri Aurobindo was a visionary of India’s bright future. He used to say that we have to be as powerful as we were never before. We have to change our habits. We have to re-awaken ourselves. These words of Sri Aurobindo remind us of our duties. We also have to think about what we are giving to the country as a citizen and as a society. We have always given importance to rights. They were needed during that period, but now we have to make duties paramount. Everybody will have to contribute in fulfilling the resolutions of the country. Every citizen will have to own this up.
Our country has initiated a campaign of water conservation, so it is our duty to include saving water in our habits. If the country is emphasizing on digital transactions, then it is also our duty to do minimum cash transactions. The country has started the campaign of Local for Vocal, so it is our duty to buy as many local products as possible. To strengthen our vision of a plastic-free India of the country, it is our duty to completely stop the use of single use plastic. It is our duty not to throw dirt in our rivers, keep our sea shores clean. We also have to take the Swachh Bharat Mission to another new level.
Today, when the country is celebrating the Amrit Mahotsav on the occasion of 75 years of independence, it is the duty of all of us to join this event, participate in it enthusiastically, and keep kindling our resolutions again and again. Keeping freedom struggle in mind, whatever little you do… whatever… will be pure like a drop of nectar, and this Amrit Kumbh made by the pure efforts of many Indians will inspire the entire nation for years to come.
I am not a fortune teller, I believe in action. I have faith in the youth of my country, I trust the sisters of the country, the daughters of the country, the farmers of the country, and the professionals of the country. This ‘CAN DO’ generation can achieve every goal imaginable.
I believe that in 2047, on the occasion of celebrating 100 years of independence… whoever will be the Prime Minister… whoever will be the Prime Minister after 25 years from today, when he will be unfurling the flag… I say this with confidence today that he or she shall be chronicling those accomplishments in his speech about which the country has taken a vow today… This is my firm belief of victory.
Today whatever I am speaking of in the form of a resolution, whoever hoists the flag after 25 years, shall be speaking of the same in the form of accomplishments. The country would be singing its glory in the form of these accomplishments. Youth of the country of today, shall also see at that time how the country has achieved this glory.
In the 21st century, no obstacle can stop us from fulfilling the dreams and aspirations of India. Our strength is our vitality, our strength is our solidarity, our vitality is the spirit of nation first – always first. This is the time for shared dreams, this is the time for shared resolve, this is the time for shared efforts… and this is the time to move towards victory.
And so I say once again-
This is the time,
This is the time.. the right time!
India’s precious time!
This is the time, the right time! India’s precious time!
The power of countless arms,
There is patriotism everywhere!
There is the power of innumerable arms, there is patriotism everywhere…
Come, rise and unfurl the Tricolour!
Turn the fate of India,
There is nothing..
There is nothing you cannot do,
There is nothing you cannot achieve,
You Rise…
You Rise and Begin,
Recognize your abilities,
Understand all your duties,
Understand all your duties!
When the country completes 100 years of independence, the goals of the countrymen must be turned into reality; that is my desire. With my best wishes, I once again congratulate all the countrymen on the 75th Independence Day! Say aloud with your fists up –
VandeMatram,
VandeMatram!
Long live Mother India,
Long live Mother India!
Thanks a lot!

I would like to begin by conveying greetings on this special occasion of Independence Day. This is a day to remember our great freedom fighters: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
आजादी का अमृत महोत्सव, 75वें स्वतंत्रता दिवस पर आप सभी को और विश्वभर में भारत को प्रेम करने वाले, लोकतंत्र को प्रेम करने वाले सभी को बहुत-बहुत शुभकामनाएं: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
कोरोना वैश्विक महामारी में हमारे डॉक्टर, हमारे नर्सेस, हमारे पैरामेडिकल स्टाफ, सफाईकर्मी, वैक्सीन बनाने मे जुटे वैज्ञानिक हों, सेवा में जुटे नागरिक हों, वे सब भी वंदन के अधिकारी हैं: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
भारत के पहले प्रधानमंत्री नेहरू जी हों, देश को एकजुट राष्ट्र में बदलने वाले सरदार पटेल हों या भारत को भविष्य का रास्ता दिखाने वाले बाबासाहेब अम्बेडकर, देश ऐसे हर व्यक्तित्व को याद कर रहा है, देश इन सबका ऋणी है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
हम आजादी का जश्न मनाते हैं, लेकिन बंटवारे का दर्द आज भी हिंदुस्तान के सीने को छलनी करता है। यह पिछली शताब्दी की सबसे बड़ी त्रासदी में से एक है। कल ही देश ने भावुक निर्णय लिया है। अब से 14 अगस्त को विभाजन विभीषिका स्मृति दिवस के रूप में याद किया जाएगा: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
प्रगति पथ पर बढ़ रहे हमारे देश के सामने, पूरी मानवजाति के सामने कोरोना का यह कालखंड बड़ी चुनौती के रूप में आया है। भारतवासियों ने संयम और धैर्य के साथ इस लड़ाई को लड़ा है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
हर देश की विकासयात्रा में एक समय ऐसा आता है, जब वो देश खुद को नए सिरे से परिभाषित करता है, खुद को नए संकल्पों के साथ आगे बढ़ाता है। भारत की विकास यात्रा में भी आज वो समय आ गया है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
यहां से शुरू होकर अगले 25 वर्ष की यात्रा नए भारत के सृजन का अमृतकाल है। इस अमृतकाल में हमारे संकल्पों की सिद्धि, हमें आजादी के 100 वर्ष तक ले जाएगी: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
संकल्प तब तक अधूरा होता है, जब तक संकल्प के साथ परिश्रम और पराक्रम की पराकाष्ठा न हो। इसलिए हमें हमारे सभी संकल्पों को परिश्रम और पराक्रम की पराकाष्ठा करके सिद्ध करके ही रहना है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
सबका साथ-सबका विकास-सबका विश्वास, इसी श्रद्धा के साथ हम सब जुटे हुए हैं। आज लाल किले से मैं आह्वान कर रहा हूं- सबका साथ-सबका विकास-सबका विश्वास और सबका प्रयास हमारे हर लक्ष्यों की प्राप्ति के लिए बहुत महत्वपूर्ण है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
अब हमें सैचुरेशन की तरफ जाना है। शत प्रतिशत गांवों में सड़कें हों, शत प्रतिशत परिवारों के पास बैंक अकाउंट हो, शत प्रतिशत लाभार्थियों के पास आयुष्मान भारत का कार्ड हो, शत-प्रतिशत पात्र व्यक्तियों के पास उज्ज्वला योजना का गैस कनेक्शन हो: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
सरकार अपनी अलग-अलग योजनाओं के तहत जो चावल गरीबों को देती है, उसे फोर्टिफाई करेगी, गरीबों को पोषणयुक्त चावल देगी। राशन की दुकान पर मिलने वाला चावल हो, मिड डे मील में मिलने वाला चावल हो, वर्ष 2024 तक हर योजना के माध्यम से मिलने वाला चावल फोर्टिफाई कर दिया जाएगा: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
21वीं सदी में भारत को नई ऊंचाई पर पहुंचाने के लिए भारत के सामर्थ्य का सही इस्तेमाल, पूरा इस्तेमाल जरूरी है। इसके लिए जो वर्ग पीछे है, जो क्षेत्र पीछे है, हमें उनकी हैंड-होल्डिंग करनी ही होगी: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
हमारा पूर्वी भारत, नॉर्थ ईस्ट, जम्मू-कश्मीर, लद्दाख सहित पूरा हिमालय का क्षेत्र हो, हमारी कोस्टल बेल्ट या फिर आदिवासी अंचल हो, ये भविष्य में भारत के विकास का बड़ा आधार बनेंगे: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
आज नॉर्थ ईस्ट में कनेक्टिविटी का नया इतिहास लिखा जा रहा है। ये कनेक्टिविटी दिलों की भी है और इंफ्रास्ट्रक्चर की भी है। बहुत जल्द नॉर्थ ईस्ट के सभी राज्यों की राजधानियों को रेलसेवा से जोड़ने का काम पूरा होने वाला है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
सभी के सामर्थ्य को उचित अवसर देना, यही लोकतंत्र की असली भावना है। जम्मू हो या कश्मीर, विकास का संतुलन अब ज़मीन पर दिख रहा है। जम्मू कश्मीर में डी-लिमिटेशन कमीशन का गठन हो चुका है और भविष्य में विधानसभा चुनावों के लिए भी तैयारी चल रही है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
लद्दाख भी विकास की अपनी असीम संभावनाओं की तरफ आगे बढ़ चला है। एक तरफ लद्दाख, आधुनिक इंफ्रास्ट्रक्चर का निर्माण होते देख रहा है तो वहीं दूसरी तरफ ‘सिंधु सेंट्रल यूनिवर्सिटी’ लद्दाख को उच्च शिक्षा का केंद्र भी बनाने जा रही है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
देश के जिन ज़िलों के लिए ये माना गया था कि ये पीछे रह गए, हमने उनकी आकांक्षाओं को भी जगाया है। देश मे 110 से अधिक आकांक्षी ज़िलों में शिक्षा, स्वास्थ्य, पोषण, सड़क, रोज़गार, से जुड़ी योजनाओं को प्राथमिकता दी जा रही है। इनमें से अनेक जिले आदिवासी अंचल में हैं: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
आज हम अपने गांवों को तेजी से परिवर्तित होते देख रहे हैं। बीते कुछ वर्ष, गांवों तक सड़क और बिजली जैसी सुविधाओं को पहुंचाने रहे हैं। अब गांवों को ऑप्टिकल फाइबर नेटवर्क, डेटा की ताकत पहुंच रही है, इंटरनेट पहुंच रहा है। गांव में भी डिजिटल Entrepreneur तैयार हो रहे हैं: PM — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
गांव में जो हमारी सेल्फ हेल्प ग्रुप से जुड़ी 8 करोड़ से अधिक बहनें हैं, वो एक से बढ़कर एक प्रॉडक्ट्स बनाती हैं। इनके प्रॉडक्ट्स को देश में और विदेश में बड़ा बाजार मिले, इसके लिए अब सरकार ई-कॉमर्स प्लेटफॉर्म तैयार करेगी: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
छोटा किसान बने देश की शान, ये हमारा सपना है। आने वाले वर्षों में हमें देश के छोटे किसानों की सामूहिक शक्ति को और बढ़ाना होगा। उन्हें नई सुविधाएं देनी होंगी: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
देश के 80 प्रतिशत से ज्यादा किसान ऐसे हैं, जिनके पास 2 हेक्टेयर से भी कम जमीन है। पहले जो देश में नीतियां बनीं, उनमें इन छोटे किसानों पर जितना ध्यान केंद्रित करना था, वो रह गया। अब इन्हीं छोटे किसानों को ध्यान में रखते हुए निर्णय लिए जा रहे हैं: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
हमें मिलकर काम करना होगा, Next Generation Infrastructure के लिए। हमें मिलकर काम करना होगा, World Class Manufacturing के लिए। हमें मिलकर काम करना होगा Cutting Edge Innovation के लिए। हमें मिलकर काम करना होगा New Age Technology के लिए: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
देश ने संकल्प लिया है कि आजादी के अमृत महोत्सव के 75 सप्ताह में 75 वंदेभारत ट्रेनें देश के हर कोने को आपस में जोड़ रही होंगी। आज जिस गति से देश में नए Airports का निर्माण हो रहा है, उड़ान योजना दूर-दराज के इलाकों को जोड़ रही है, वो भी अभूतपूर्व है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
भारत को आधुनिक इंफ्रास्ट्रक्चर के साथ ही इंफ्रास्ट्रक्चर निर्माण में होलिस्टिक अप्रोच अपनाने की भी जरूरत है। भारत आने वाले कुछ ही समय में प्रधानमंत्री गतिशक्ति- नेशनल मास्टर प्लान को लॉन्च करने जा रहा है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
विकास के पथ पर आगे बढ़ते हुए भारत को अपनी मैन्यूफैक्चरिंग और एक्सपोर्ट, दोनों को बढ़ाना होगा। आपने देखा है, अभी कुछ दिन पहले ही भारत ने अपने पहले स्वदेशी एयरक्राफ्ट कैरियर INS विक्रांत को समुद्र में ट्रायल के लिए उतारा है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
भारत आज अपना लड़ाकू विमान बना रहा है, सबमरीन बना रहा है, गगनयान भी बना रहा है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
देश के सभी मैन्यूफैक्चर्स को भी ये समझना होगा- आप जो Product बाहर भेजते हैं वो आपकी कंपनी में बनाया हुआ सिर्फ एक Product नहीं होता। उसके साथ भारत की पहचान जुड़ी होती है, प्रतिष्ठा जुड़ी होती है, भारत के कोटि-कोटि लोगों का विश्वास जुड़ा होता है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
मैं इसलिए मनुफक्चरर्स को कहता हूँ - आपका हर एक प्रॉडक्ट भारत का ब्रैंड एंबेसेडर है। जब तक वो प्रॉडक्ट इस्तेमाल में लाया जाता रहेगा, उसे खरीदने वाला कहेगा - हां ये मेड इन इंडिया है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
हमने देखा है, कोरोना काल में ही हजारों नए स्टार्ट-अप्स बने हैं, सफलता से काम कर रहे हैं। कल के स्टार्ट-अप्स, आज के Unicorn बन रहे हैं। इनकी मार्केट वैल्यू हजारों करोड़ रुपए तक पहुंच रही है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
Reforms को लागू करने के लिए Good औऱ Smart Governance चाहिए। आज दुनिया इस बात की भी साक्षी है कि कैसे भारत अपने यहां गवर्नेंस का नया अध्याय लिख रहा है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
मैं आज आह्वान कर रहा हूं, केंद्र हो या राज्य सभी के विभागों से, सभी सरकारी कार्यालयों से। अपने यहां नियमों-प्रक्रियाओं की समीक्षा का अभियान चलाइए। हर वो नियम, हर वो प्रक्रिया जो देश के लोगों के सामने बाधा बनकर, बोझ बनकर, खड़ी हुई है, उसे हमें दूर करना ही होगा: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
आज देश के पास 21वीं सदी की जरूरतों को पूरा करने वाली नई ‘राष्ट्रीय शिक्षा नीति’ भी है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
जब गरीब के बेटी, गरीब का बेटा मातृभाषा में पढ़कर प्रोफेशनल्स बनेंगे तो उनके सामर्थ्य के साथ न्याय होगा। नई राष्ट्रीय शिक्षा नीति को गरीबी के खिलाफ लड़ाई का मैं साधन मानता हूं: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
नई राष्ट्रीय शिक्षा नीति की एक और विशेष बात है। इसमें स्पोर्ट्स को Extracurricular की जगह मेनस्ट्रीम पढ़ाई का हिस्सा बनाया गया है। जीवन को आगे बढ़ाने में जो भी प्रभावी माध्यम हैं, उनमें एक स्पोर्ट्स भी है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
ये देश के लिए गौरव की बात है कि शिक्षा हो या खेल, बोर्ड्स के नतीजे हों या ओलपिंक का मेडल, हमारी बेटियां आज अभूतपूर्व प्रदर्शन कर रही हैं। आज भारत की बेटियां अपना स्पेस लेने के लिए आतुर हैं: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
आज मैं एक खुशी देशवासियों से साझा कर रहा हूँ। मुझे लाखों बेटियों के संदेश मिलते थे कि वो भी सैनिक स्कूल में पढ़ना चाहती हैं, उनके लिए भी सैनिक स्कूलों के दरवाजे खोले जाएं: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
दो-ढाई साल पहले मिजोरम के सैनिक स्कूल में पहली बार बेटियों को प्रवेश देने का प्रयोग किया गया था। अब सरकार ने तय किया है कि देश के सभी सैनिक स्कूलों को देश की बेटियों के लिए भी खोल दिया जाएगा: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
भारत की प्रगति के लिए, आत्मनिर्भर भारत बनाने के लिए भारत का Energy Independent होना अनिवार्य है। इसलिए आज भारत को ये संकल्प लेना होगा कि हम आजादी के 100 साल होने से पहले भारत को Energy Independent बनाएंगे: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
भारत आज जो भी कार्य कर रहा है, उसमें सबसे बड़ा लक्ष्य है, जो भारत को क्वांटम जंप देने वाला है- वो है ग्रीन हाइड्रोजन का क्षेत्र। मैं आज तिरंगे की साक्षी में National Hydrogen Mission की घोषणा कर रहा हूं: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
21वीं सदी का आज का भारत, बड़े लक्ष्य गढ़ने और उन्हें प्राप्त करने का सामर्थ्य रखता है। आज भारत उन विषयों को भी हल कर रहा है, जिनके सुलझने का दशकों से, सदियों से इंतजार था: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
Article 370 को बदलने का ऐतिहासिक फैसला हो, देश को टैक्स के जाल से मुक्ति दिलाने वाली व्यवस्था- GST हो, हमारे फौजी साथियों के लिए वन रैंक वन पेंशन हो, या फिर रामजन्मभूमि केस का शांतिपूर्ण समाधान, ये सब हमने बीते कुछ वर्षों में सच होते देखा है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
त्रिपुरा में दशकों बाद ब्रू रियांग समझौता होना हो, ओबीसी कमीशन को संवैधानिक दर्जा देना हो, या फिर जम्मू-कश्मीर में आजादी के बाद पहली बार हुए BDC और DDC चुनाव, भारत अपनी संकल्पशक्ति लगातार सिद्ध कर रहा है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
आज दुनिया, भारत को एक नई दृष्टि से देख रही है और इस दृष्टि के दो महत्वपूर्ण पहलू हैं। एक आतंकवाद और दूसरा विस्तारवाद। भारत इन दोनों ही चुनौतियों से लड़ रहा है और सधे हुए तरीके से बड़े हिम्मत के साथ जवाब भी दे रहा है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
आज देश के महान विचारक श्री ऑरबिंदो की जन्मजयंती भी है। साल 2022 में उनकी 150वां जन्मजयंती है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
वो कहते थे कि- हमें उतना सामर्थ्यवान बनना होगा, जितना हम पहले कभी नहीं थे। हमें अपनी आदतें बदली होंगी, एक नए हृदय के साथ अपने को फिर से जागृत करना होगा: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
जिन संकल्पों का बीड़ा आज देश ने उठाया है, उन्हें पूरा करने के लिए देश के हर जन को उनसे जुड़ना होगा, हर देशवासी को इसे Own करना होगा। देश ने जल संरक्षण का अभियान शुरू किया है, तो हमारा कर्तव्य है पानी बचाने को अपनी आदत से जोड़ना: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
मैं भविष्य़दृष्टा नहीं हूं, मैं कर्म के फल पर विश्वास रखता हूं। मेरा विश्वास देश के युवाओं पर है। मेरा विश्वास देश की बहनों-बेटियों, देश के किसानों, देश के प्रोफेशनल्स पर है। ये Can Do Generation है, ये हर लक्ष्य हासिल कर सकती है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
21वीं सदी में भारत के सपनों और आकांक्षाओं को पूरा करने से कोई भी बाधा रोक नहीं सकती। हमारी ताकत हमारी जीवटता है, हमारी ताकत हमारी एकजुटता है। हमारी प्राणशक्ति, राष्ट्र प्रथम, सदैव प्रथम की भावना है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
यही समय है, सही समय है, भारत का अनमोल समय है। असंख्य भुजाओं की शक्ति है, हर तरफ़ देश की भक्ति है, तुम उठो तिरंगा लहरा दो, भारत के भाग्य को फहरा दो: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021
यही समय है, सही समय है, भारत का अनमोल समय है। कुछ ऐसा नहीं जो कर ना सको, कुछ ऐसा नहीं जो पा ना सको, तुम उठ जाओ, तुम जुट जाओ, सामर्थ्य को अपने पहचानो, कर्तव्य को अपने सब जानो, भारत का ये अनमोल समय है, यही समय है, सही समय है: PM @narendramodi — PMO India (@PMOIndia) August 15, 2021

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will unfurl the national flag for the 11th time in a row on Independence Day. His first Independence Day address of his third term will take him past Manmohan Singh, who unfurled the tricolour 10 times from the ramparts of Red Fort during 2004-2014, and place him behind Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi, who did the honours 17 and 16 times respectively.
It will be eagerly seen if the Prime Minister announces any new initiative or expand the ambit of some ongoing welfare programmes at a time when a combined opposition, at its strongest in the last 10 years, has pivoted to populist welfare promises to draw support.

“Let me also mention here that in adopting the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita from July this year, we have removed one more relic of the colonial era. The new code is oriented towards ensuring justice for the victims of crime instead of focusing on punishment alone,” President Droupadi Murmu says in her address to the nation on the eve of Independence Day.
President Droupadi Murmu praised the new National Education Policy saying that NEP has already started showing results with regard to cultivating young minds and creating a new mindset that takes the best of traditions and contemporary knowledge is priority.
Ms. Murmu said the Amrit Kaal, which is the ongoing period of a quarter century leading to the centenary of the country’s Independence, is going to be shaped by the youth of today.
Recalling the horrors of partition, President Droupadi Murmu, in her address to the nation on the eve of Independence Day said, “Today, on 14th August, the nation is observing Vibhajan Vibhishika Smriti Diwas, a day to recall partition horrors. As the great nation was divided, millions had to suffer forced migration, lakhs of people lost their lives. A day before we celebrate Independence Day, we recall that unparalleled human tragedy and stand with the families that were torn asunder.”
“My dear countrymen, India is among the fastest growing economies in the world with an average annual growth of 8% between 2021 and 2024. This has not only given more money in the hands of people, but there has been a huge decline in the number of people living below the poverty line as well,” says President Droupadi Murmu in her address to the nation on the eve of Independence Day.
The President attributed this remarkable progress to the relentless efforts of workers and farmers, the foresight of planners and wealth creators, and the visionary leadership guiding the nation.
She emphasised the government’s ambitious goal of transforming India into a ‘Viksit Bharat’ -- a developed nation -- by 2047, coinciding with the centenary of India’s Independence.
President Droupadi Murmu, in her address to the nation, lauded the Modi government for the “number of unprecedented initiatives for welfare of SC, ST and marginalised sections.”
“Steady progress of political democracy testifies to progress made towards consolidation of social democracy,” she says.
Ms. Murmu also appreciated the Election Commission of India, all other poll officials, security personnel who braved the heat and helped in the successful completion of 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
“On 15th of August, in all parts of the country and also abroad, Indians participate in the flag-hoisting ceremonies, sing patriotic songs, and distribute sweets,” President Murmu says in her address to the nation on the eve of the 78th Independence Day.
“Patriotic and brave souls took immense risks and made supreme sacrifices. We salute their memory. Thanks to their unceasing labour, the soul of India awoke from centuries of torpor,” she adds.
With a successful G20, India has established its position by including the African Union as a member. India wants to use its influential position for world peace, Droupadi Murmu says.
Affirmative action must be strengthened as instrument of inclusion, says President Droupadi Murmu as she addresses the nation on the eve of Independence Day.
Ms. Murmu also said that she firmly believes tendencies that stoke discord based upon perceived social hierarchies have to be rejected.

With less than 24 hours left for the Independence Day celebration, Delhi Police has beefed up security arrangements in the city by deploying over 10,000 cops and 3,000 traffic police personnel, officials said.
All borders of the national capital will be sealed for the entry of commercial and heavy vehicles by Thursday midnight apart from heavy police deployment, they said.
Additionally, 700 AI-based facial recognition cameras have been installed in Central and New Delhi, they added.
Additional police teams and paramilitary forces have been deployed at various locations including IGI Airport, railway stations, bus stands, malls, metro stations and markets, the officials said.
Ten CISF personnel, including one posthumous, have been awarded the police medal for gallantry on the eve of the Independence Day for an encounter with terrorists in Jammu in 2022, two days before Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit.
Two heavily armed terrorists had attacked a Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) personnel manned picket just before 4 am on April 22, 2022, near Chaddha camp in the Sunjawan area of Jammu.
The ‘fidayeen’ attackers sprayed a volley of bullets from their assault weapons and lobbed grenades at the picket when a shift change was taking place and CISF personnel onboard a bus had just reached the spot to relieve their colleagues standing guard overnight.
As the bus reached the ‘Sunjawan naka’, the CISF said, terrorists again started firing at the bus and also used UBGL (under barrel grenade launcher).
Immediately, Patra and Rajesh Kumar got off the bus and positioned themselves for retaliation while the other personnel, under the supervision of Patel, took position in the bus and opened fire on the terrorists, the force said.
Fifty-eight-year-old Patel, hailing from the Satna district of Madhya Pradesh, made the “supreme sacrifice” in the service of the nation, the CISF said.
Police sub-inspector Dhanaji Honmane, who was martyred in an encounter with Naxalites in Gadchiroli district of Maharashtra in 2020, was among the 17 police personnel from the State who have been selected for the Medal for Gallantry on the eve of the Independence Day .
A total of 59 medals have been announced for the Maharashtra police force - 17 of them for gallantry, 3 for distinguished service and 39 for meritorious service.
The government on Wednesday (August 14, 2024) announced service medals for 1,037 police personnel of various Central and State forces on the eve of Independence Day.
According to a Union Home Ministry statement, 214 personnel will be decorated with bravery medals, including a President’s Medal for Gallantry (PMG) and 231 Medal for Gallantry (GM). The GM includes four decorations for fire fighters and one for a civil defence personnel.
President Droupadi Murmu will address the nation on Wednesday on the eve of the 78th Independence Day, the Rashtrapati Bhavan has said.
The address will be broadcast from 7 p.m. on the entire national network of Akashvani and telecast over all channels of Doordarshan in Hindi followed by the English version, it said in a statement issued on Tuesday.
Broadcast of the address in Hindi and English on Doordarshan will be followed by broadcast in regional languages by regional channels of Doordarshan.
Akashvani will broadcast regional language versions at 9.30 p.m. on its respective regional networks, the statement added.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will unfurl the national flag for the 11th time in a row on Thursday (15th August, 2024) on Independence Day – the centrepiece annual event where he lays out his government’s agenda, presents its report card, makes important policy, and programme announcements and speaks about burning issues.
PM Modi’s first Independence Day address of his third term will take him past Manmohan Singh, who unfurled the tricolour 10 times from the ramparts of Red Fort during 2004-2014, and place him behind Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi, who did the honours 17 and 16 times respectively.

President's Speech
My dear fellow citizens,.
I extend to you all my heartiest Independence Day greetings. I am delighted to see the nation prepare to celebrate the 78 th Independence Day. Witnessing the tri-colour unfurl on this occasion, be it at the Red Fort, at state capitals or in local neighbourhoods, always thrills our hearts. It is an expression of the joy of being part of our great nation along with more than 1.4 billion fellow Indians. Just as we celebrate various festivals with our families, we celebrate our Independence Day and Republic Day with our family that comprises our fellow citizens.
On 15 th of August, in all parts of the country and also abroad, Indians participate in the flag-hoisting ceremonies, sing patriotic songs, and distribute sweets. Young children participate in cultural events. When we hear them talking about our great nation and about the privilege of being a citizen of it, we find in their words echoes of what our great freedom fighters used to say. Then we realise that we are part of a chain that binds the dreams of those who participated in the freedom struggle and the aspirations of those who will witness the nation regaining its full glory in the years to come.
Realising that we are links of this chain of history is humbling. It makes us recall the days when the nation was under a foreign rule. Patriotic and brave souls took immense risks and made supreme sacrifices. We salute their memory. Thanks to their unceasing labour, the soul of India awoke from centuries of torpor. Different traditions and values that had continued to live on beneath the surface found new expressions in several generations of great leaders. Unifying the diversity of traditions and their expressions was Mahatma Gandhi, Father of the Nation and our lodestar.
Alongside, there were great leaders like Sardar Patel, Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose and Babasaheb Ambedkar as well as Bhagat Singh, Chandrashekhar Azad and many others. It was a nationwide movement, in which all communities participated. Among tribals, there were Tilka Manjhi, Birsa Munda, Laxman Naik and Phulo-Jhano, among many more whose sacrifices are now being appreciated. We have started celebrating the birth anniversary of Bhagwan Birsa Munda as Janjatiya Gaurav Divas. Celebrations of his 150th birth anniversary next year will be an opportunity to further honour his contribution to the national re-awakening.
Today, on 14th August, the nation is observing Vibhajan Vibhishika Smriti Diwas, a day to recall partition horrors. As the great nation was divided, millions had to suffer forced migration, lakhs of people lost their lives. A day before we celebrate Independence Day, we recall that unparalleled human tragedy and stand with the families that were torn asunder.
We are celebrating the 75 th year of the Constitution. The journey of the newly independent nation was not without obstacles. Remaining firm on the Constitutional ideals of justice, equality, liberty and fraternity, we are on the mission to enable India to reclaim its rightful position on the global stage.
As general elections were held in our country this year, the number of eligible voters stood at nearly 97 crore. This was a historic record, making it the largest electoral exercise humankind has ever witnessed. The Election Commission of India should be congratulated for the smooth and flawless conduct of such a gigantic event. I thank all officials and security personnel who braved the heat and helped electors. When such a large number of people exercise their franchise, it is a resounding vote for the idea of democracy. India's successful conduct of elections strengthens democratic forces around the world.
Dear Fellow Citizens,
From 2021 to 2024, India has been among the fastest growing major economies, with an average growth rate of 8 percent annually. This has not only put more money in the hands of people, it has also drastically reduced the number of people living below the poverty line. As for those who continue to suffer from poverty, all efforts are being made not only to provide a helping hand to them, but also to bring them out of it. For example, the PM Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana, launched in the initial phase of Covid-19, continues to provide free ration to about 80 crore people, which also ensures that those who have recently come out of poverty are not forced back into it.
It is a matter of pride for all that India has become the fifth largest economy in the world, and we are also poised to become one of the top three economies soon. This has been made possible only by tireless hard work of farmers and workers, by the farsightedness of planners and wealth-creators, and by the visionary leadership.
Farmers, our Annadata, have ensured that agricultural production continues to beat expectations. With this, they have contributed immensely to making India self-reliant in agriculture and feed our people. Infrastructure has received a boost in recent years. Strategic planning and effective institutions have helped expand the network of roads and highways, railways as well as ports. Considering the great potential of futuristic technology, the Government has vigorously promoted a range of sectors, such as semiconductors and Artificial Intelligence, while also creating an ideal ecosystem for startups which will propel their growth. It has made India an even more attractive investment destination. With greater transparency, the banking and financial sector has become much more efficient. All of these factors have set the stage for the next generation of economic reforms and economic growth that will catapult India among the developed nations.
This rapid but equitable progress has given India a higher stature in global affairs. After the successful completion of its G-20 Presidency, India has consolidated its role as the voice of the Global South. India intends to use its influential position to expand the scope of world peace and prosperity.
We must remember the words of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar, the architect of our Constitution. He had rightly said, and I quote, “We must make our political democracy a social democracy as well. Political democracy cannot last unless there lies at the base of it social democracy.” [Unquote] The steady progress of political democracy testifies to the progress made towards the consolidation of social democracy. The spirit of inclusion pervades every aspect of our social life. We move together as a cohesive nation with our diversity and plurality.
Affirmative action must be strengthened as an instrument of inclusion. I firmly believe that in a vast country like ours, tendencies that stoke discord based upon perceived social hierarchies have to be rejected. Social justice is a top priority of the Government, and it has taken a number of unprecedented initiatives for the welfare of the Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and other marginalised sections of society. Pradhan Mantri Samajik Utthan evam Rozgar Adharit Jankalyan, that is, PM-SURAJ, for example, aims to provide direct financial assistance to the people from the marginalised communities. The Pradhan Mantri Janjati Adivasi Nyaya Maha Abhiyan or PM-JANMAN has taken the form of a mass campaign for critical interventions to improve socio-economic conditions of Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups, that is, PVTGs. The National Action for Mechanized Sanitation Ecosystem or the NAMASTE scheme will ensure that no sanitation workers will have to manually engage in the hazardous task of sewer and septic tank cleaning.
The term 'justice', taken in the broadest possible sense, includes a variety of social factors. I would like to stress two of them in particular, namely, gender justice and climate justice.
In our society, women are considered not only equal, but even more than equal. However, they have also suffered from traditional prejudices. But I am glad to note that the Government has given equal importance to women's welfare and women's empowerment. The budget allocation for this purpose has more than tripled in the last decade. Their participation in the labour force has increased. The most heartening development on this front has been the significant improvement in the sex ratio at birth. A variety of special government schemes have also been designed keeping the women at the centre. Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam is aimed at ensuring real empowerment of women.
Climate change has become a reality. It is all the more challenging for developing nations to change their economic paradigm. Yet, we have already made more progress in that direction than expected. India is proud to be at the forefront of humankind's battle to save the planet from the worst effects of global warming. I also urge you all to make small but effective changes in your lifestyle and contribute to the cause of dealing with the challenge of climate change.
Speaking of justice, let me also mention here that in adopting the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita from July this year, we have removed one more relic of the colonial era. The new code is oriented towards ensuring justice for the victims of crime instead of focusing on punishment alone. I see this change as a tribute to the freedom fighters.
The Amrit Kaal, the ongoing period of a quarter century leading to the centenary of our Independence, is going to be shaped by the youth of today. It is their energy and enthusiasm that will help the nation scale new heights. Cultivating the young minds and creating a new mindset that takes the best of the traditions and the contemporary knowledge is our priority. To this end, the National Education Policy, launched since 2020, has already started showing results.
To harness their talent, the Government has come up with initiatives to facilitate skilling, employment and other opportunities for them. The Prime Minister's package of five schemes for employment and skilling will benefit 4.1 crore youth over five years. Under a new initiative of the Government, one crore youth will be doing internship in leading companies over five years. All this will be a foundational contribution towards building Viksit Bharat.
In India, we view science and technology as part of the quest for knowledge as well as instrument for humanitarian progress. Our achievements in the field of digital applications, for example, are being used as templates in other countries. In recent years, India has made unprecedented advances in space exploration. Along with you all, I also eagerly look forward to the launch of the Gaganyaan Mission next year, which will take a team of Indian astronauts into space aboard India's first human spaceflight.
The world of sports is another arena in which the country has made great progress in the last decade. The Government has rightly prioritised the development of sports infrastructure, and it is showing results. The Indian contingent put up its best efforts in the recently concluded Paris Olympic Games. I appreciate the dedication and hard work of the players. They have inspired the youth. In cricket, India won the T-20 World Cup, to the great joy of a large number of fans. In chess, our prodigies have made the country proud. This is said to be the beginning of an Indian era in chess. In badminton, tennis and other sports, our youngsters are making a mark on the world stage. Their achievements have inspired the next generation too.
With the nation all set to celebrate Independence Day, let me once again extend my greetings to you, particularly our brave jawans of Armed Forces who guard our freedom, risking their lives. I convey my greetings to the police and security personnel who keep vigil all across the country. I also extend my greetings to the members of the judiciary and the civil services, as well as the officials of our missions abroad. My greetings also to our diaspora: You are part of our family, making us proud with your achievements. You are great representatives of India's culture and heritage. Once again, I wish everyone a very Happy Independence Day!
Thank you Jai Hind! Jai Bharat!
About India
India is one of the oldest civilizations in the world with a kaleidoscopic variety and rich cultural heritage. It has achieved all-round socio-economic progress since Independence. As the 7th largest country in the world, India stands apart from the rest of Asia, marked off as it is by mountains and the sea, which give the country a distinct geographical entity. Bounded by the Great Himalayas in the north, it stretches southwards and at the Tropic of Cancer, tapers off into the Indian Ocean between the Bay of Bengal on the east and the Arabian Sea on the west.

Jawaharlal Nehru be came the first Indian Prime Minister to raise the National Flag at the Red Fort near Delhi's Lahore Gate. Our struggle for independence was not just a political movement; it was a testament to the unbeatable spirit of our people. From the non-violent resistance led by Mahatma Gandhi to the bravery of countless others, we stood united in our quest for self-determination.

10 Lines Independence Day Short Speech in English
India gained independence on August 15th, 1947.
After independence, Indians acquired all their fundamental rights.
People celebrate Independence Day by hoisting the National Flag and reciting the National Anthem.
We should all be proud to be Indian, and we should admire our fortune to have been born in the land of Independent India.
From 1857 to 1947, the lives of many freedom fighters and several decades of struggle were sacrificed.
For the independence of India, an Indian soldier (Mangal Pandey) in the British force first raised his voice against the British.
Several great freedom fighters later struggled and dedicated their entire lives to India’s freedom.
The sacrifices of all the freedom fighters like Bhagat Singh, Khudi Ram Bose, and Chandra Sekhar Azad, who lost their lives at an early age just to fight for their country, can never be forgotten.
Gandhiji was a great Indian figure who gave the world a great lesson in non-violence.
We are so lucky to have been given a land of peace and happiness by our forefathers, where we can sleep all night without fear and enjoy the whole day at school or home.

Here is the full text of PM Modi's address on India's 75th Independence Day
Today, on the pious festival of the Amrit Mahotsav of freedom, the country is bowing to all its freedom fighters and brave heroes who continue to sacrifice themselves day and night in the defense of the nation. The country is remembering every personality, including the revered Bapu, who made freedom a mass movement, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, who sacrificed everything for the freedom, or great revolutionaries like Bhagat Singh, Chandrasekhar Azad, Bismil and Ashfaqulla Khan; Rani of Jhansi Lakshmibai, Queen Chennamma of Kittur or Rani Gaidinliu or the valour of MatanginiHazra; the country's first Prime Minister Pandit Nehru ji, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, who integrated the country into a united nation, and Baba Saheb Ambedkar, who determined and paved the way for the future direction of India. The country is indebted to all these great personalities.
While we celebrate our freedom today, we cannot forget the pain of partition that still pierces through the heart of all Indians. This has been one of the biggest tragedies of the last century. After attaining freedom, these people were forgotten too soon. Just yesterday India has taken an emotional decision, we will henceforth commemorate August 14 as “Partition Horrors Remembrance Day” in the memory of the victims of partition. Those who were subjected to inhuman circumstances, suffered torturous treatment, they could not even receive a dignified cremation. They must all remain alive and never get erased from our memories. The decision of celebrating “Partition Horrors Remembrance Day” on the 75th Independence Day is a befitting tribute from every Indian to them.
Along with modern infrastructure, there is a great need for adopting a holistic and integrated approach in infrastructure construction. In the near future, we are going to launch the National Master Plan of Prime Minister ‘Gati Shakti’ which will be a huge scheme and fulfil the dreams of crores of countrymen. This scheme of more than 100 lakh crores rupees will result in new employment opportunities for lakhs of youth.
It is a moment of pride for us that because of our scientists, we were able to develop two Make in India COVID Vaccines and carry out the world's Largest Vaccine Drive.
It was extremely difficult to get vaccines during such a major crisis, with pandemic plaguing the entire world. India might or might not have received it and even if it had received the vaccine there was no certainty of getting that in time. But today we can proudly say that the world's largest vaccination programme is being run in our country. More than 54 crore people have received the vaccine dose. Online systems like Cowin and digital certificates are attracting the world today.
Our doctors, nurses, paramedical staff, sanitation staff, scientists engaged in developing vaccines, millions of countrymen engaged with the spirit of service during this Corona global pandemic also deserve praise from all of us.
India’s young generation has made our country proud at the Tokyo Olympics. All such athletes are amongst us today. They have not only won our hearts but also inspired our young generation.
The way India has kept the stoves burning for the poor's house by providing free food grains to 80 crore countrymen continuously for months during the pandemic is not only astonishing to the world but also a matter of discussion.
It is true that fewer people have been infected in India as compared to other countries; it is also true that in comparison to the population of other countries of the world, we managed to save more citizens in India but it is not something to be proud of! We cannot rest on these laurels. To say that there was no challenge, will become a restrictive thought in the path of our own development.
Our goal is to develop a nation where we not only have world-class infrastructure but also move ahead with the mantra of 'Minimum government, maximum governance'.
We should not limit the occasion of 75 years of Indian independence to just one ceremony. We must lay the groundwork for new resolutions and move forward with new resolutions. Starting from here, the entire journey of the next 25 years, when we celebrate the centenary of Indian independence, marks the Amrit period of creation of a new India. The fulfilment of our resolutions in this Amrit period will take us to the hundredth anniversary of Indian independence with pride.
The goal of 'Amrit Kaal' is to ascend to new heights of prosperity for India and the citizens of India. The goal of 'Amrit Kaal' is to create an India where the level of facilities is not dividing the village and the city. The goal of 'Amrit Kaal' is to build an India where the government does not interfere unnecessarily in the lives of citizens. The goal of 'Amrit Kaal' is to build an India where there is world’s every modern infrastructure.
Amrit Kaal is of 25 years. But we don't have to wait for long to achieve our goals. We have to start now. We don't have a moment to lose. This is the right time. Our country also has to change and we as citizens have to change ourselves too. We also have to adapt ourselves to the changing era. We have started with the spirit of ‘SabkaSaath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas’. Today I am requesting from the ramparts of the Red Fort that ‘SabkaSaath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas’ and now SakkaPrayas are very important for the achievement of our goals.
In this Bharat ki Vikas Yatra, we have to ensure that we meet our goal of building an AatmaNirbhar Bharat when we celebrate 100 years of India's Independence.
Just as we have made electricity accessible to 100% households, and have made authentic efforts to construct toilets in 100% households, similarly, we now have to move ahead with the goal of achieving saturation of schemes, and, for this, we do not have to keep a distant deadline. We have to make our resolutions come true within a few years.
Now, we have to move even further. 100% villages should have roads, 100% households should have a bank account, 100% beneficiaries should have Ayushman Bharat card, 100% eligible persons should have gas connection under Ujjwala scheme and 100% beneficiaries should have Aawas.
We have to move ahead with a mindset of cent percent achievement. Till now, no thought was given for our street vendors, who sell their goods on tracks, footpaths and carts. All these colleagues are now being linked to the banking system through the SVANidhi scheme.
We have to move forward with the goal of ensuring that every citizen is connected with government's transformative schemes.In the last few years, our government has provided roads and electricity to the villages. Now these villages have been strengthened with optical fibre network data and the Internet.
I am happy that just within 2 years of Jal Jeevan Mission, over 4.5 Crore families have started receiving Nal Se Jal; this is our main achievement when the benefit reaches the last mile citizen.
Poshanis one of the key focus of our government. The government has also been working on preventive healthcare, and building health and wellness infrastructure.
We need to provide hand holding to the backward categories and sectors. With the concern of fulfilling the basic needs, reservation is being ensured for the Dalits, Backward classes, Adivasis and the poor people from general category. More recently, in the field of medical education, reservation has also been ensured for the OBC category in the All India Quota. By formulating a law in Parliament, the right to make their own list of OBC has been given to the states.
Be it rice available at ration shop, rice available in mid-day meal, rice available through every scheme will be fortified by the year 2024.
The delimitation commission has been constituted in Jammu and Kashmir itself and preparations are also going on for the assembly elections.
Ladakh is witnessing a new transformative phase where the government is focusing on building world-class infrastructure.On one hand, Ladakh is witnessing the creation of modern infrastructure, while on the other, ‘Sindhu Central University’ is going to make Ladakh a centre of higher education.
There is a huge potential in the fields of tourism, adventure sports, organic farming, herbal medicine, and oil pump in the North East. We have to fully harness this potential and make it a part of the development journey of the country. And we have to complete this work within a few decades of the ‘Amrit Kaal’. Giving a fair opportunity to the capabilities of all is the true spirit of democracy. Be it Jammu or Kashmir, the balance of development is now visible on the ground.
Whether East, North East, Jammu and Kashmir, Ladakh, the entire Himalayan region, our coastal belt or tribal region, these will become a big base for India's development in the future.
Today a new history of connectivity is being written in the North-East. This is a connectivity of both the hearts and the infrastructure. Very soon the work of connecting all the state capitals of the North-East with rail service is going to be completed.
Under the Act-East Policy, today North-East, Bangladesh, Myanmar and South-East Asia are also being connected. Due to the efforts made in the past years, now the enthusiasm for the creation of Shreshtha Bharat and long-lasting peace in the North-East has increased manifold.
We are witnessing a new phase in the developmental journey of our villages. It not only has electricity and water but also nurturing Digital Entrepreneurs.Priority is being given to schemes related to education, health, nutrition, roads, employment, in over 110 aspirational districts of the country. Many of these districts are in tribal areas.
We have to focus on helping our small farmers. We have to give maximum benefits of the government's schemes to them; be it through DBT or Krishi Rail.
Kisan Rail can help small farmers with this modern facility to reach far flung areas on a low cost of produce and transportation. Several products like Kamalam, Shahi litchi, BhutJolokiachillis, black rice or turmeric are being exported to different countries of the world.
The government is now focusing on welfare of small farmers. 10 Crore farmer families have directly received over ₹ 1.5 lakh crore in their bank accounts.
SVAMITVA Yojna is transforming the lives in rural India. Drone is helping our rural citizens to map their land and apply for various schemes/loans online.
Co-operatives are not just a system with a network of laws and rules, but co-operative is a spirit, culture, and a mindset of collective growth. We have taken steps to empower them by forming a separate ministry. We have taken this step to empower the cooperative sector in the states.
In the coming years, we will have to increase the collective power of the small farmers of the country. They have to be given new facilities. We are trying to empower these farmers through SVAMITVA Yojana.
We have decided to celebrate this Amrit Mahotsav of independence for 75 weeks. It started from 12th March and will continue till 15th August, 2023. We have to move forward with new enthusiasm and, therefore, the country has made a very important decision.
During these 75 weeks of the Amrit Mahotsav of Independence, 75 Vande Bharat trains will connect every corner of the country. The pace at which new airports are being built in the country and the UDAN scheme connecting remote areas is unprecedented.
We will have to work together for manufacturing world class products, using cutting-edge innovation and new age technology.
Under the Jan Aushadhi Yojana, the poor and needy are now getting affordable medicines. Over 75,000 Health & Wellness Centres have been built and we are working on a network of hospitals at the block level.
To further increase our developmental progress, we have to focus on our manufacturing and export.
The country has also announced Production Linked Incentive to consolidate our Make in India campaign in the wake of the new economic conditions that have emerged due to Corona. The electronic manufacturing sector stands as an example of the change that is enforced through this scheme. Seven years ago, we used to import mobile phones worth about eight billion dollars. However, now the import has reduced considerably, and today we are also exporting mobile phones worth three billion dollars.
Treading ahead on the path of development, India will have to augment both its manufacturing and exports. You have witnessed, just a few days ago, India launched its first indigenous Aircraft Carrier INS Vikrant for trial in the sea. Today India is making its own indigenous fighter aircraft, its own submarine. Gaganyaan is also slated to hoist India's flag in space. This itself is evidential of our immense capabilities in indigenous manufacturing.
I want to tell the manufacturers - Every product you make is a brand ambassador for India. As long as that product is in use, the buyer will say - yes this isMade in India.
We have to stop the over involvement of government in the form of complex policies. Today, we have abolished over 15,000 unnecessary compliances.
We have introduced tax reforms that will give impetus to Ease of Living and Ease of Doing Business.Good and smart governance is required to implement the reforms. Today, the world is also witnessing how India is writing a new chapter of governance.
To introduce people centric approach in Bureaucracy, we have started Mission Karmayogiand Capacity Building programme.
Today the country also has a new National Education Policy to meet the needs of the 21st century. Now our children will neither stop due to lack of skills nor will they be bound by language barriers.This new National Education Policy is also going to be a great tool to fight against poverty in a way. The basis of winning the war against poverty is also the education, prestige and importance of the vernacular language.
In a move towards strengthening BetiBachao, BetiPadhaoinitiative, our daughters will now be able to study in Sainik schools too.Today, be it education or Olympics our daughters are performing tremendously. We have to ensure that they get equal opportunities and they feel safe and respected.
More than eight crore sisters in the villages are associated with Self-Help Groups and they design top-end products. Now the government will also prepare an e-commerce platform to ensure a huge market in the country and abroad for their products. When the country is moving forward with the mantra of being vocal for local, this digital platform will connect the products of women self-help groups with people in far flung areas of the country as well as abroad and it will have far-reaching consequences.
India is not Energy independent. It spends over Rs. 12 lakh crores on importing energy. As we celebrate 75 years of Independence, we have to ensure that India becomes AatmaNirbharin energy production too.
We are giving equal emphasis to Environmental Security as to National Security. Be it biodiversity or land neutrality, climate change or waste recycling, organic farming, India is progressing in all these sectors.
In this decade of the 21st century, India will further accelerate its efforts towards the Blue Economy.The Deep Ocean Mission is the result of our ambition to explore the unlimited possibilities of the ocean. The mineral wealth which is hidden in the sea, the thermal energy which is in the sea water, can give new heights to the development of the country.
Green Hydrogen is the future of the world. Today, I announce the setting up of the National Hydrogen Mission.
We have to make India a Global Hub for Green Hydrogen Production and Export in the 'Amrit Kaal'. This will not only help India to make a new progress in the field of energy self-reliance but will also become a new inspiration for Clean Energy Transition all over the world. New opportunities from Green Growth to Green Job are opening up today for our start-ups & youth.
India has also made a move towards Electric Mobility and the work on 100% electrification of Railways is also progressing at a fast pace. Indian Railways has set a target of becoming Net Zero Carbon Emitter by 2030.
The country is also emphasizing on Mission Circular Economy. Our Vehicle Scrap Policy is a great example of the same. Today, India is the only country in the group of G-20 countries, which is moving fast towards achieving its climate goals.
India has set a target of 450 GW of renewable energy by the end of this decade - 450 GW by 2030. Of this, the target of 100 GW has been achieved by India ahead of schedule.
Today India is also solving those subject areas, which were hanging fires for decades and centuries. Be it a historic decision to abrogate Article 370, introduction of GST, a system that frees the country from the web of taxes, a decision regarding 'One Rank-One Pension' for our military friends, a peaceful solution to the Ram Janmabhoomi issue, we have seen it come true in a few years.
India’s willpower is realizing all the resolutions whether it is the Bru-Reang agreement in Tripura after decades, constitutional status to the OBC commission or the BDC and DDC elections in Jammu and Kashmir for the first time since independence.
The nature of global relations has changed after the Second World War. There is a possibility of a new world order post Corona. The world has seen and appreciated India's efforts during Corona. Today the world is looking at India from a new perspective. There are two important aspects of this perception -- one is terrorism and the other is expansionism. India is fighting both these challenges and is also responding strongly in a restrained manner. Our defense preparedness has to be equally strong if India has to fulfill its obligations properly.
Our youth is the 'Can Do' Generation, and they can achieve everything they set their mind to.Our actions today will determine our future. Our today will set the theme of our 100 years of India's Independence.
I am not a fortune teller, I believe in the fruits of action. I have faith in the youth of my country, I trust the sisters of the country, the daughters of the country, the farmers of the country, or the professionals of the country. This ‘CAN DO’ generation can achieve every unimaginable goal.
In the 21st century, no obstacle can stop us from fulfilling the dreams and aspirations of India. Our strength is our vitality, our strength is our solidarity, our vitality is the spirit of nation first - always first. This is the time for shared dreams, this is the time for shared resolve, this is the time for shared efforts... and this is the time to move towards victory.
Today is also the birth anniversary of the great thinker of the country, Sri Aurobindo. His 150th birth anniversary will be celebrated in 2022. Sri Aurobindo was a visionary of India's bright future. He used to say that we have to be as powerful as we were never before. We have to change our habits. We have to re-awaken ourselves.
When Swami Vivekananda used to talk about the future of India, when he used to see the magnificence of Mother Bharati in front of his eyes, he used to say – Try to look into the past as far as possible. Drink the water of the ever-new spring flowing back there, and after that, look ahead. Go ahead and make India brighter, greater & better than ever. In this 75th year of independence, it is our duty to move forward believing in the immense potential of the country. We have to work together for new generation infrastructure; we have to work together for world class manufacturing; we have to work together for cutting edge innovations; we have to work together for new age technology.

Speech on Independence Day
Long and Short Speech on 75th Independence Day/ 15 August 2021 in English
Speech on independence day #1
Respected Chief Guest Sir, Respected teachers, parents and my colleagues, I am feeling happy to get this opportunity to express my views on this auspicious occasion of Independence Day. This is our 75th Independence Day celebration. Exactly 75 years ago today, we got freedom. The story of our freedom struggle is huge which cannot be described in a day. Independence Day holds great importance for every Indian.
75 years ago, we were ruled by the British, they came to India on the pretext of trade and gradually subjugated everything and made us their slaves. Then after fighting many agitations and battles, India became independent on 15 August 1947. Today we have become independent because of the brave warriors of our country and celebrate this day by paying tribute to those people. Independence Day is one of the national festivals of India.
Speech on independence day #2
Respected Principal Sir, Vice Principal Sir, Honorable Teachers and Dear Colleagues. Today, on the occasion of Independence Day, I am feeling very happy to get this opportunity to express my thoughts in front of you, let me tell you about the importance of Independence Day.
Independence Day is a historical festival, India got independence from the British 73 years ago today. India, which had lost its existence, regained its identity. The British came to India and after knowing and examining the surroundings very carefully, keeping in mind our weaknesses, attacked us and ruled for about two hundred years. Our brave warriors fought many battles and after that we got freedom on 15th August 1947.
Since then till today, we have been celebrating 15th August every year as Independence Day. Every year the flag is hoisted at the Red Fort by our honorable Prime Minister. After this he addresses the country and then some colorful programs are presented. People from far and wide go to Delhi to see it and those who are unable to go watch its live broadcast.
Thus we celebrate our Independence Day by remembering our brave soldiers.
Speech on independence day #3
Good morning to all my respected teachers, parents, and dear friends. We have gathered here today to celebrate this great national occasion. As we know that Independence Day is a auspicious occasion for all of us. This is a very important day for all Indian citizens and it has been mentioned in history forever. This is the day when we got freedom from British rule after years of hard struggle by the great freedom fighters of India. To remember the first day of India’s independence, we celebrate Independence Day every year on 15th August as well as remember the sacrifices of all those great leaders who gave their sacrifices for the freedom of India.
India got independence from British rule on 15 August 1947 . After independence we got all the fundamental rights in our nation and motherland. We should be proud of our being Indian and admire our good fortune that we were born in the land of free India. The history of slave India tells everything how our ancestors fought hard and endured the cruel tortures of the firangians . We cannot sit here and imagine how difficult freedom from British rule was. It has taken the sacrifice of lives of countless freedom fighters and several decades of struggle from 1857 to 1947. For the independence of India, the first voice against the British was raised by Mangal Pandey, a soldier working in the British Army.
Later many great freedom fighters fought and gave their whole life for freedom. We all can never forget Bhagat Singh, Khudiram Bose and Chandrashekhar Azad who lost their lives fighting for the country at a very young age. How can we ignore the struggles of Netaji and Gandhiji. Gandhiji was a great personality who taught the lesson of non-violence to Indians. He was the only leader who showed the way of independence through non-violence and finally after a long struggle, the day came on 15 August 1947 when India got independence.
We are very fortunate that our ancestors have given us a land of peace and happiness where we can sleep at night without fear and enjoy the whole day in our school and at home. Our country is developing rapidly in technology, education, sports, finance, and many other areas which would not have been possible without independence. India is one of the countries rich in nuclear energy. We are moving ahead by actively participating in sports like Olympics, Commonwealth Games, Asian Games. We have complete freedom to choose our government and are using the world’s largest democracy. Yes, we are free and have complete freedom, although we should not consider ourselves free from responsibilities towards our country. As responsible citizens of the country, we should always be prepared for any emergency.
Speech on independence day #4
Namaskar and Jai Hind to all the respectable people present in this courtyard, teachers, my classmates and all other dignitaries present. We all have gathered here to celebrate the auspicious occasion of this Independence Day on 15th August. Many best wishes and congratulations to all of you on this auspicious occasion. Today, on this auspicious occasion, I have got the opportunity to address all of you, thank you all very much for that.
Friends, as we know, 15th August is a day of honor and pride for every Indian. On 15th August 1947, all our freedom fighters and revolutionaries had given their lives to free our country from the British Empire, and they owe us their sacrifice and freedom of this country. That’s why we celebrate it historically in his memory and honor on this day. On this day, we got freedom from the British rule, which has been oppressing us Indians for almost 200 years, which is incomparable.
The British rule oppressed us Indians for many years and kept us as slaves. There is a saying that “the pot of sin must burst one day”, and according to this saying, on 15th August we got freedom from the slavery of the British and we became completely free. We have also lost many great people of our country in this tireless effort of freedom. Many such great people were born in our country, who did not even care for their lives for the freedom of the country, and sacrificed for the country with laughter. The most important contribution in the independence of our country was given by Mahatma Gandhi, who forced them to leave India by using weapons like truth and non-violence against the British rule. There were many other freedom fighters like Jawaharlal Nehru, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Subhash Chandra Bosh, Bhagat Singh, Chandrashekhar Azad etc. in the independence of the country, who contributed to the independence of India and freed the country from the clutches of British slavery. Got it done
We are very fortunate that in history we got such great freedom fighters and revolutionaries and they not only liberated the country but also the generations to come from the slavery of the British. Because of this we are free today and day by day we are achieving new achievements and new heights.
After 75 years of independence, today our country is moving towards progress in every field. Our country is writing a new chapter every day in a different field, like military power, education, technology, sports and many other fields, it is writing a new dimension every day. Today our military strength is so good that its example is given all over the world, and any country is too scared to look at India with its eyes. Today our military strength is equipped with modern weapons, which have the power to destroy any enemy in the blink of an eye.
As we know that our country has been an agricultural country since ancient times, and after 15th August 1947, our agricultural sector has also changed a lot. After independence, we use new techniques in agriculture and new methods of growing crops to produce large quantities of crops, and today our country is at the forefront of exporting grains. During the war between India and Pakistan in 1965, the then Prime Minister Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri gave the slogan “Jai Jawan Jai Kisan” . And today this slogan proves to a great extent.
Today, after independence, we have made a lot of progress in the field of science. Due to this scientific technology, today India has traveled to the Moon and Mars. By innovating new scientific technology every day, we are taking the country towards a new progress. We are adopting science and technology for ourselves in every field. By adopting science and technology in the field of military, agriculture, education, we have been able to make ourselves at par with the progressive countries. After independence, we have made progress in every field and are writing new dimensions every day.
On this occasion of independence, where we are discussing about the new dimensions of progress of the country, we should never forget that scene of slavery, where our great freedom fighters sacrificed their lives for freedom. Even today, remembering those great people, our eyes become moist. In the glare of today’s new India, we should never forget those great souls who sacrificed everything for the freedom of the country.
Addressing you today on this auspicious occasion, I end my words by paying my respectful obeisances and homage to those great souls, thank you all very much.
Bharat Mata Ki Jai .Jai Hind.

Long Independence Day Speech for Kids 500 Words In English
Good Morning. Welcome to the Independence Day celebration at our school.
In this national celebration day, we should all feel proud of being a part of India. India is an independent nation that gives us the freedom to follow all our rights, including the right to education and the right to speech.
For almost 200 years, we were under the rule of the British Government. They treated us like slaves, tortured us, and destroyed our money and resources. But after all the struggles, with the help of our freedom fighters, Indians fought for their rights and freedom.
Almost 73 years ago, on 15th August 1947, India finally got Independence from British rule. For the first time, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru hoisted India’s flag on the Red Fort. Since then, India celebrates Independence Day across the nation.
India was once full of resources. We had full of minerals, and India was known for its leading spice market in the world. These reasons attracted the British Government to capture India and use all the resources for their purposes, as at the beginning, manipulating Indians was an easy task.
With the implementation of different policies, the country came under the rule of British people. They started torturing us and forced us to become slaves to them. With the help of divide and rule policy, they induced conflicts among Indians.
Few renowned freedom fighters like Mahatma Gandhi, Bhagat Singh, Subhash Chandra Bose, and Jawaharlal Nehru emerged as leaders to engage and inspire everybody so that they can fight for their rights, making all the sacrifices. After that, every Indian participated actively in the freedom movements to aim for an independent nation.
Independence gave us many benefits, including all the rights to freedom, speech, education, and many more. Without our freedom fighters, gaining Independence against the British rule was quite impossible. For us, it was a beautiful gift of Independent India from our martyrs. So, it is now our responsibility to value Independence by doing pure deeds like cleaning, keeping our environment clean, helping the people in need, and maintaining all the rules and regulations of our constitution.
Schools, colleges, education institutes, Government and private organizations arrange different cultural programs, to make the day memorable. Our main motive for the day is to remember the significant contributions of our freedom fighters who sacrificed everything for us, to make our country an independent nation.
The arm forces of our country, arrange parades every year to showcase India’s superpower in front of the world. We also pay our tributes to our army, who are still protecting us from enemies from India’s borders.
Lastly, I would like to say; the young generation is our future for the country. With youth’s talents and efforts towards the country, India can succeed more in the future. We need to understand the importance of patriotism and the importance of Independence Day in our country. Together in Unity, we can strengthen our nation for a beautiful future.

Short Independence Day Speech for Kids 150 Words In English
Happy Independence Day to all.
It is a bright morning with patriotism in everybody’s heart. But about 73 years ago, India wasn’t an independent country, and it was under the rule of the British Government.
Indians were tortured, captured, and were forced to be slaves.
The anger inside the Indians led to the emergence of some freedom fighters who felt the need to enlighten Indians about India’s condition. They engaged Indians in the freedom struggles and movements until they received the victory of freedom.
Freedom fighters like Mahatma Gandhi did a lot of freedom movements to gain Independence, including the salt march movement, the Non-cooperation movement, and the civil disobedience movement.
Finally, on 15th August 1947, we got our freedom from the hands of the British Government. This day is a memorable one, making us remember the extreme sacrifices of our martyrs. We need to maintain our Unity for making our country Strong.

15 August Speech in English
Today, We are all gathering here to celebrate Mother India’s 78th Year of Independence from the British Colonial Raj. On the stairs coming to the stage, the lines of the Former Prime minister Sri Atal Bihar Bajpaye Ji are continuously boomeranged in my ears.
“ bhaarat kisee buoomi ka tukada nahin hai, isane jaagata raashtra purushon ko jeet liya hai.” ye vandan kee bhoomi hai, ye abhinandan kee bhoomi hai. ye arpan kee bhoomi hai ye tarpan kee bhoomi hai. isakee nadee-nadee hamaare lie ganga hai, isaka kankar-kankar hamaare lie shankar hai. ham jiyenge to is bhaarat ke lie aur marenge to is bhaarat ke lie, aur mrtyu ke baad bhee gangaajal mein nikalee hamaaree asthiyon ko koee kaan antatah sunega, to ek hee aavaaj aayegee- “bhaarata maata kee jay”
The Indian Independence Struggle saw numerous hardships and sacrifices made by courageous Indian freedom warriors. On this auspicious day, we celebrate visionary visionaries such as Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, Subhas Chandra Bose, and countless more who fought for liberty with unwavering perseverance and bravery. We have the great gift of independence and sovereignty as a result of their tireless efforts and sacrifices.
Today, we meet to commemorate our nation’s extraordinary path toward freedom and sovereignty. This year’s 78th India Independence Day 2024 is being celebrated under the theme of “Viksit Bharat,” which implies establishing India as a developed nation in 2047.
Looking to the pages of History, the British East India Company came to India as spice traders. They arrived in the Indian subcontinent around 1608 and became traders to rulers after defeating numerous independent kings. At midnight on 14-15 August 1947, an important turning point in the history of the Indian independence struggle occurred. This day marked India’s liberation from British control and the end of a protracted 200-year war for freedom. Our liberation heroes, including Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, Sardar Patel, and others, worked diligently and made significant sacrifices to make our goal a reality.
Looking back, the morning of August 15, 1947, marked the end of British colonial control and India’s emergence as a sovereign nation. Jawaharlal Nehru became India’s first Prime Minister to raise the National Flag at the Red Fort, opposite Delhi’s Lahore Gate. Our struggle for independence was more than just a political movement; it demonstrated our people’s unbreakable spirit. From Mahatma Gandhi’s nonviolent resistance to the bravery of countless others, we stood together in our struggle for self-determination.
Nevertheless, we must remember that our freedom is accompanied by a tremendous deal of responsibility. We, the youth of India, are the architects of our country’s destiny. Our energy, excitement, and innovative spirit have the potential to catapult India to new heights. We must safeguard our sovereignty and integrity from both external and domestic attacks. We must encourage peace and harmony among ourselves and with our neighbors. We must strive hard to eliminate poverty, illiteracy, corruption, violence, and discrimination in our society is our responsibility to carry on the heritage of our liberation heroes and create a stronger, more affluent India.
Jai Hind| Wish you all a Happy Independence Day.

Heart Touching Speech on Independence Day
As we gather here to celebrate the 15th of August, our hearts swell with pride and joy. Independence Day is not just a day on the calendar; it is the day when we remember the sacrifices, the struggles, and the unwavering spirit of those who fought for our freedom.
Seventy-seven years ago, on this very day in 1947, India woke up to a new dawn—a dawn of freedom, self-respect, and dignity. The air was filled with the voices of millions who had long been silenced, and their cries for freedom finally found their echo in the corridors of power.
Our freedom fighters, known and unknown, laid down their lives for a cause greater than themselves. They dreamt of a free India—a nation where every individual would live with dignity, a nation where the chains of oppression would be broken forever. They did not fight for themselves; they fought for us, for the generations to come. Today, as we stand in a free nation, we owe everything to them.
Independence Day is a time for reflection. It is a day to look back at our journey, to honor the courage of those who came before us, and to pledge to uphold the values they held dear. But it is also a day to look forward, to envision the future of our great nation.
Our India is a land of diversity, where people of different religions, languages, and cultures live together in harmony. This unity in diversity is our strength. But we must remember that with freedom comes responsibility. It is up to us to ensure that the ideals of our freedom fighters are upheld, that we continue to work towards a society where every citizen is treated with equality, respect, and justice.
As we celebrate this day, let us not forget the challenges that lie ahead. We must fight against poverty, inequality, and corruption. We must work towards building a nation where every child is educated, every family has access to healthcare, and every individual has the opportunity to live a life of dignity.
On this Independence Day, let us pledge to be responsible citizens. Let us pledge to contribute to the growth and development of our nation. Let us pledge to keep the flame of freedom alive in our hearts and to pass it on to the next generation.
In the words of Mahatma Gandhi, “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” Let us dedicate ourselves to the service of our motherland, to the service of humanity.
As we salute the tricolor today, let us remember that it is not just a flag; it is a symbol of our identity, our pride, and our unity. Let it inspire us to work together, to overcome our differences, and to build a nation that is strong, prosperous, and free.
Jai Hind! Jai Bharat!

In his 11th address to the nation, Prime Minister Narendra Modi underscored the imperative of embracing and implementing key reforms. Speaking from the historic Red Fort, he presented a compelling vision of a 'Viksit Bharat' (developed India) by 2047, inspired by the legacy of India's freedom struggle. He highlighted the transformative power of collective resolve, stating, 'If 40 crore people could unite to break free from the chains of colonial oppression and secure our independence, imagine what can be achieved by the combined determination of 140 crore people today.' His speech paid tribute to the sacrifices of the freedom fighters and called for a unified national effort to propel India towards unparalleled growth and development.
