Union Minister of State for External Affairs MJ Akbar participated in Govindpura Assembly’s Tiranga Yatra on Sunday that was accorded welcome at different places.
Akbar, while addressing the gathering on the occasion said that there is long history of sacrifices behind country’s independence. People of the country coming from different ideologies united to liberate the country from the colonial slavery. We need to generate the similar passion through Tiranga Yatra for the development and prosperity of the people of country, he added.
Akbar said, “We have to give creative direction to the tide of nationalism stemmed in the people of the country through the Tiranga Yatra. The schemes started by Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the betterment of villages, poor, farmers, laborers, youth and women have to be implemented rightly to extirpate poverty, diseases, helplessness, illiteracy and unemployment from the country.”
Akbar further said that we have to think about the last person standing in the last row in our daily routine.
Our efforts would remain insufficient till one poor person remains affected with poverty. Political independence would not get complete without financial autonomy, he added.
He said that the wheel in the Tiranga under the shadow of that we are doing the journey of development symbolizes mobility of the nation.
We have to get dedicated for the dignity of Tiranga. We should not leave any stone unturned to realize the dreams seen by the revolutionaries. PM Modi has prepared roadmap for the development of all sections of society and has made resources and facilities available for everyone.
Country’s pride among foreign nations has increased and the country is moving on the path of progress, he added.
