Amit Shah terms PM’s Independence Day address as a roadmap of the past 11 years’ progress

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday termed Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s address to the nation on the 79th Independence Day as a roadmap showcasing the progress of the past 11 years.

In a series of posts on ‘X,’ the Union Home Minister said that whether it’s the elimination of terrorists through ‘Operation Sindoor,’ the plan to secure the country’s infrastructure through ‘Mission Sudarshan Chakra,’ or the resolve to create an infiltrator-free India through the ‘High-Powered Demography Mission,’ the Modi government is committed to making the nation strong and secure. 

Amit Shah said that on Independence Day, PM Modi gifted the youth of the nation by announcing the implementation of the ‘Pradhan Mantri Viksit Bharat Rozgar Yojana’ with a fund of ₹1 lakh crore. Under this scheme, first-time employees in the private sector will receive ₹15,000, and companies generating more jobs will also receive incentives. This initiative will benefit approximately 3.5 crore youth, providing a golden opportunity for Indian youth and strengthening the journey toward a self-reliant India.

He further stated that the Modi government is taking robust steps toward a self-reliant India by empowering small businesses. During his speech from Red Fort, PM Modi announced Next Gen GST Reforms as a Diwali gift to the nation. 

These reforms will not only greatly benefit small industries but also make everyday essentials more affordable, giving a new impetus to the Indian economy. This effort will further strengthen India’s economic prowess and significantly contribute to making it the world’s third-largest economy.

Amit Shah said that PM Modi made a historic announcement on Independence Day by launching ‘Mission Sudarshan Chakra.’ Under this mission, by 2035, critical national sites will be equipped with cutting-edge technology and powerful weapon systems. This step will prove to be a milestone in making national security impregnable and enabling targeted strikes against adversaries.

Union Home Minister said that in his address, Prime Minister Modi acknowledged the 100-year rich history and contributions of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) to nation-building, paying tribute to all the volunteers who have made unparalleled contributions to the country’s 100-year journey of progress.
