Citizens of India should remain steadfast on the ideals of the constitution makers- PM Modi
PM Modi said that this achievement of 75 years of the Constitution is not ordinary, but it is extraordinary. When the country got independence, the possibilities that were imagined for India were immense and despite all the challenges, our Constitution brought us where we are today. Therefore, for this great achievement, I respectfully salute not only the Constitution makers but also the crores of citizens of the country who have lived and adopted this spirit, this new system. The Prime Minister further said that in the last 75 years, the citizens of India have lived up to the ideals of the Constitution makers and hence the citizens of India deserve congratulations. India's democratic history has been an inspiration for the world, hence we are the mother of democracy. Our Constitution makers knew that India was not born in 1947, they knew everything about India's great heritage.

Referring to Nari Shakti, he said that when the G-20 summit took place, we carried forward the spirit of the Constitution because we are people who live by its values. During India's presidency of the G-20, we put forward the idea of women-led development to the world. The need for progress through women's development is important globally. So we started discussing women-led development and brought it to fruition. Not only this, but all of us MPs united to ensure active participation of women in Indian democracy and passed the Nari Shakti Bandhan Act.
PM Modi said that there were 15 women members in the Constituent Assembly. All these women came from different fields and their suggestions had a huge impact on the Constitution. India has given women the right to vote since the beginning. Today women are at the center of every major government scheme. Today the President of India is a tribal woman. The participation and contribution of women is increasing in every field, including fields like space. The number of women MPs in this House is constantly increasing and their contribution is also increasing. Their role in the Council of Ministers is also expanding. Today, whether it is the social sector, political field, education, sports or creative world, the contribution and representation of women in every field of life has been commendable for the country.
Unity in diversity has been the specialty of India- PM Modi
PM Modi said that unity in diversity has been the specialty of India. We celebrate diversity, however, those who grew up with a slave mentality, who could not see India's progress, kept finding contradictions in diversity. Instead of celebrating this invaluable treasure of diversity, some people have tried to sow poisonous seeds in it with the aim of harming the unity of the country. We should make the celebration of diversity an integral part of our lives and this will truly be a tribute to Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar.
Prime Minister Modi said that India is taking strong steps to soon become the third largest economic power in the world. It is the resolve of 140 crore citizens of this country that when we celebrate the independence of our country, we will make India a developed nation. This is the resolve of every Indian, this is the dream of every Indian. The biggest requirement for the fulfillment of this resolve is the unity of India. Our Constitution is also the foundation of the unity of India.
