Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said when India commemorates its 75 years of independence, the country will take “bold steps” to achieve targets that seemed impossible at some point, and emphasised that celebrations should be based on public participation.
Speaking at the first meeting of the 259-member high-level national committee headed by him to commemorate 75 years of India’s independence, Modi also said that the celebrations must reflect the spirit of the country’s freedom movement and showcase its achievements to the world since 1947.
The “celebrations can be divided into in five sub-heads — freedom struggle, ideas at 75, achievements at 75, actions at 75 and resolve at 75”, he said at the virtual meeting.
“When we talk about public participation for preparations, it engulfs the aspirations, feelings, thoughts, suggestions and dreams of 1.3 billion Indians,” he said and added that “we are fortunate that in time, the country has given us the responsibility to make this festival a reality”.
