The PM also spoke on the importance of the day (Nov 26) which is observed as Constitution Day. "This day, November 26 is extremely significant on one more account. It was on this very day in 1949 that the Constituent Assembly had passed and adopted the Constitution of India," PM Modi said.

The Prime Minister further added that just as the success of 'Swachh Bharat Abhiyan' is becoming an inspiration, the success of 'Vocal For Local' is opening the doors to a developed and prosperous India.

Speaking over nation-building, the PM said nothing can stop the country from moving forward when the public takes part in national building. "...Today, in India, the people of India are leading many changes in the nation..." he said.

The PM added that one of the biggest challenges of the 21st century is 'Water Security' and that conserving water is no less than "saving life."
