For the first time in Independent India, the National Flag was truly owned and embraced by the people. The enthusiasm of national pride ran through the Nation, person to person – household to household. Over 130 crore people were re-energized and became closer to their identity of being an Indian.

Similarly, to emerge as a developed economy in the next 25 years, Indians must embrace the five resolves and make them their guiding light.

Ques – Of all the possible resolves, how will you assess the choice of resolves that the PM has shared with the Nation?

SK Narvar: In his Independence Day message to the Nation, the Prime Minister shared the following five resolves as essential to creating a developed India: advance with greater conviction and determination to achieve a Developed India, remove any trace of the colonial mindset; take pride in our legacy; realize the power of unity, and fulfilling the duties of citizens.

The five resolves are incredibly thought-out, measured, and relevant for the Nation. For instance, before a target is achieved, one has to trust that it is achievable. Therefore, all Indians need to have a single-minded conviction that we can become developed in the next 25 years, which will act as a driving force for our socio-economic development.

The development and progress of India towards a modern society with our values and self-pride is key to our success.
