Varanasi, 14 December: In the ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’ started on the 75th anniversary of independence, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given a new resolution to the whole country on Tuesday from his parliamentary constituency Varanasi by urging that the capable person of the country who can take responsibility in the society along with his family must also take up the responsibility of skill development of one or two poor daughters. Today I want to urge the countrymen to take this resolution.

On the last day of the two-day Kashi tour, the Prime Minister was addressing the centenary festival of freedom fighter and Sant Sadafal Dev Maharaj’s jail visit and the 98th anniversary of Vihangam Yoga Sant Samaj organized at Swarved Mahamandir Dham, Chaubepur Umha.

He said that these resolutions should be such in which Sadhguru’s resolves are fulfilled and in which the wishes of the country should also be included. These can be resolutions that should be given momentum in the next two years, fulfilled together. The Prime Minister said that we have to educate the daughter and develop her skills.

The Prime Minister called for taking a pledge to save water and keep all rivers and water bodies, including the Ganga, clean. After praising Indian saints, he said that our country is so wonderful that, whenever the time is opposite, some saint-vibhuti descends to bend the current of time. It is India whose biggest hero of freedom is called Mahatma by the world where religious consciousness also continued along with the freedom struggle.

โ€œSant Sadafaldev ji also played an important role in independence. In the jail itself, he contemplated on the Swarveda and came out and gave it an embodiment. The history of our freedom struggle was not recorded as it should have been, said Modi.

Describing the glory of Varanasi, Narendra Modi said that cities like Banaras have preserved the seeds of India’s identity, art and entrepreneurship even in the toughest of times. Where there is a seed, the tree begins to expand from there. And that is why, today when we talk about the development of Banaras, it also forms the roadmap for the development of the whole of India.

He said that the energy of Kashi also takes new expansion every now and then. Yesterday, Kashi inaugurated the grand Vishwanath Dham and organized this Maharishi Sadaphal Dev Vihagam. The means of saints provide the attainment of virtuous fruits. The freedom struggle Maharishi Sadaphal gave a lot to the society. ]

The Prime Minister said that during the freedom struggle, Sadhguru had given us the mantra, Swadeshi. Today, in the same spirit, the country has now started ‘Self-reliant India Mission’.

He said that today the local business-employment of the country is being given strength to the products; the local is being made global.

Congratulating the entire country on Gita Jayanti, the Prime Minister said that on this day when the armies were face to face in the battlefield of Kurukshetra, humanity had got the ultimate knowledge of Yoga, Spirituality and Paramarth.

Modi further said that the path of Swadeshi was shown by the Maharishi and today it is moving towards self-reliant India. The path of Swaraj and Suraj has been opened.
