‘Viksit Bharat@2047’ a driving force for every Indian: Guv
Governor KT Parnaik said that ‘Viksit Bharat@2047’ is the driving force for every Indian, particularly the youths, to find solutions to every challenge, innovative ideas to march forward, and vision to plan out strategies to be a developed, progressive, caring nation and a world leader by 2047.”
Participating in an ‘Ideas for the vision of Viksit Bharat@2047’ programme at the Raj Bhavan here on Monday, the governor said that the central government has “charted the way, and now the onus is on the people of the state to rise to the expectation of the apex leadership.”
“Along with the five pillars to make India self-reliant, ie, economy, infrastructure, technology-driven system, vibrant demography, and demand, national security is also very vital for a nation to progress,” Parnaik said, and added that “a strong armed force and efficient police are big deterrents for antinational elements and unfriendly nations.”
Saying that the youths of Arunachal must be educated, disciplined and motivated, he urged the youths to “imbibe the ‘nation first’ spirit,” and added that “a good leader, good environment and good intention will contribute to nation-building.”
He expressed desire that the youths of the state would actively participate in the programme and provide innovative and progressive ideas which can bring socioeconomic development to every part of the country.
The governor requested the vice chancellors, principals and members of faculties to “motivate the students to contribute in providing suggestions for Viksit Bharat@2047.”
“Today’s leaders have set the motion but it is the youths of the day who will realise the accomplishment,” he added.
