Building Society Which Stands On Equality & Social Justice: PM Modi Launches 7 Initiatives By Brahma Kumaris

Here are some important highlights of PM Modi's keynote address:

  • PM Modi began his speech by appreciating the efforts of the people towards the development of the nation. PM Modi said, "Today crores of Indias are putting the foundation stone of Swarnim Bharat. Our progress lies in the progress of the nation. The nation exists from us, and we exist from the nation. This realization is becoming the biggest strength of Indians in the making of a new India."
  • The Prime Minister further said that today we are creating a system in which there is no place for discrimination, We are building a society that stands firmly on the foundation of equality and social justice. We are witnessing the emergence of an India whose thinking and approach are innovative, and whose decisions are progressive.
  • Hailing the culture of the Indian society, PM Modi said that when the world was in deep darkness, caught in the old thinking about women, then India used to worship 'Maa Shakti' in the form of Goddess. We have scholars like Gargi, Maitreyi, Anusuya, Arundhati and Madalasa giving knowledge to society. Even in the difficult medieval times, there were great women like Pannadhay and Mirabai in India. Today, during the Amrit Mahotsav, the country is remembering the history of freedom struggle and sacrifices by women and institutions like Brahma Kumari is keeping their work alive.
  • Urging the Indians to get up and work towards the country's development, PM Modi said that we have to keep our culture, our civilization alive to preserve and promote our spirituality, our diversity. And at the same time, technology, infrastructure, education, health have to be continuously modernized.
  • PM Modi further said that this time of Amrit Kaal is not for dreaming while sleeping, but for fulfilling resolutions by waking up. Coming 25 years is the culmination of hard work, sacrifice & austerity. This is a period of 25 years to get back what our society has lost in hundreds of years of slavery.
  • PM Modi said that institutes like Brahma Kumari will have to light a lamp in the heart of every citizen of the country - the lamp of duty. Together, we will take the country forward on the path of duty, then the evils prevailing in the society will also be removed and the country will also reach new heights
