"PM Modi and UP CM Yogi are committed to fulfilling the resolve of 'Viksit Bharat' by 2047": SBSP Chief OP Rajbhar

Ghazipur (Uttar Pradesh) [India], August 15 (ANI): Uttar Pradesh Minister and SBSP Chief Om Prakash Rajbhar on Friday extended greetings on the occasion of India's 79th Independence Day, stating that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath are committed to fulfilling the dream of "Viksit Bharat" by 2047.
"Today the entire nation is celebrating Independence Day with great enthusiasm...I congratulate everyone on the occasion of Independence Day. PM Modi and UP CM Yogi Adityanath are committed to fulfilling the resolve of 'Viksit Bharat' by 2047...", OP Rajbhar told ANI.
Earlier in the day, UP CM Yogi Adityanath hoisted the national flag at his official residence to mark the 79th Independence Day.
In his address, the Chief Minister paid tribute to the soldiers who have safeguarded India's borders and strengthened internal security since independence.
Highlighting the bravery and prowess of the Indian Army, CM Yogi Adityanath said, "This is an opportunity to pay our tribute to our soldiers who have protected the country's borders and enhanced internal security since independence. Recently, we have all witnessed the valour and courage of the Indian Army, along with its capability and strength."
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, delivering his 12th consecutive Independence Day address from the Red Fort, emphasised 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' (self-reliant India) as a cornerstone for achieving 'Viksit Bharat' (developed India). He highlighted its relevance across defence, space, clean and renewable energy, agriculture, and mineral exploration.
"Whoever is dependent on others too much, there are as big questions raised on one's Independence. It becomes truly unfortunate when we get used to being dependent. We don't even get to know when we are leaving atmanirbharta and becoming nirbhar, that is why we need to be alert and awake to be independent," PM Modi said in his address from the ramparts of the Red Fort.
In the Defence sector, Prime Minister Modi announced the launch of 'Mission Sudarshan Chakra', aimed at neutralising enemies and enhancing India's offensive capabilities. Drawing inspiration from India's rich cultural and mythological heritage, the 'Sudarshan Chakra' is the weapon of Lord Krishna. (ANI)
