Says India moving decisively towards developed nation under PM Modi

Jammu, Apr 21: Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Tuesday said India is moving decisively towards becoming a developed nation and the goal of 2047 is not merely a date but a national resolve. He called for building the India that freedom fighters once dreamed of, where every section and every individual is part of the mainstream of progress.

Speaking at the statue unveiling ceremony of Vijay Bahadur Singh, a well-known social worker and founder of Mahamandaleshwar Shri Bal Krishna Yati Inter College at Ghazipur, Uttar Pradesh, the Lieutenant Governor paid homage to the late social worker, saying that he discharged his duties without any expectation, served without any desire for fame, and built not for himself but for coming generations.

In his address, the LG said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India has taken development beyond mere statistics and carried it to every doorstep. "Crores of families who once had no roof over their heads now have their own homes, and this has brought them dignity and security in society. Roads have reached every village, the number of airports has doubled, and the digital revolution has connected every section of society," he said. "Today, the marginalised section have bank accounts, they have an identity, they hold smart mobile phones for financial transactions, and in my view this is not merely technological progress but social empowerment."

He further said that in far-flung regions of the country, new schools, new universities, and a new education policy have together begun to build an India where the hands of the youth hold the reins of the future. "The facilities now available, particularly for girls, are unprecedented in our history, and the purpose of education through innovation and research is no longer merely to pass exams but to create an aware and responsible citizen," he added.

The Lieutenant Governor called for carry the ideals of Vijay Bahadur Singh, whom he described as "a true karma yogi", to every segment of society. "I feel particularly proud that Shri Vijay Bahadur Singh did not ask what Bindravan could do for him; instead, he showed what Bindravan and the Jakhania region could do for themselves," he said. 

"This Inter College, born of a people's movement, is just a small symbol of his transformative work. He did not merely establish a college; he made a pledge, a promise to the future. In 1974, when he laid the foundation of this institution, there was no major financial support and no assurance of success. All he had was an unshakeable belief that education is the power which can change society," the LG added.
