“Every state should learn from each other, take inspiration from each other, work for the betterment of the country, this is the spirit of the constitution and it is also our responsibility towards the countrymen,” the Prime Minister said.
Referring to the ongoing ‘Amrit Kaal’, the Prime Minister said that during the Amrit Kaal, an Amrit generation will emerge carrying the essence of the ‘Panch Pran’– advance with greater conviction and the determination of a developed India; get rid of any signs of slavery; take pride in India’s history; the power of unity; duties of citizens, such as those of the PM and CMs.
“The Panch Pran’ must be the guiding force for good governance,” said the Prime Minister.
He said when the strength of the country increases, then the power of every citizen and every family in the country will get a boost. “This is good governance where benefits reach even the last person standing in the queue in every state,” he said.
The Prime Minister emphasized the link between the law and order system and the development of the states. “It is very important for the entire law and order system to be reliable. Its trust and perception among the public are very important,” he pointed out.
