I have a vision of a Modern India. I have embarked on a huge mission to convert that vision into reality. My mantra is Development.
It is easy to turn a scooter, but not a train with 40 bogeys. This is such a big country, changes are constant and widespread.
We must reach out to villages even in scorching heat with temperature upto 44 C. We must ensure that no girl child remains illiterate. I request all the social institutions and the media world to create a joyous environment for education in the month of June (when schools re-open), an environment to encourage children to go to school. We will derive the satisfaction of having done a social good.
Even if one child falls in a borewell, the entire country gets worried; we must generate more awareness about hundreds of children who are unable to survive due to lack of primary healthcare facilities.
I dedicate the love, enthusiasm, welcome and respect given to me to the feet of 125 crore children of Mother India.
We are not here to give challenges to anyone, but we will also not take challenges casually. Our defence mechanisms would be the best in the world. A secure India is the first requirement for the country to progress and achieve new heights.
What we teach our children is that earth is your mother that provides; she's a giver. So, please first ask forgiveness from the mother earth before you step on to it and cause it pain.
We believe in Sarva Pantha Sambhav. We believe 'the truth is one, there are ways to reach it.
With the gun you can make the earth red but if you have a plough you can make the earth green.
A nation with a strong defence industry will not only be more secure. It will also reap rich economic benefits - it can boost investment, expand manufacturing, support enterprise, raise the technology level and increase economic growth in the country.
Through a policy driven approach we have wage a war against poverty and we are confident we will win this war.
A good government is one with many information channels, those that give real-time information.
The spirit of sacrifice and selflessness of the defence forces is an inspiration for all Indians. Strong armed forces are necessary for an atmosphere of peace, amity, harmony and brotherhood in the country.
We always remember the courage of the people of Kargil! We want to make Kargil among India's most developed districts.
