"This is not a govt of fake Gandhis...": Union Minister Giriraj Singh hails PM Modi's Independence Day speech

Patna (Bihar) [India], August 15 (ANI): Union Minister Giriraj Singh on Friday praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Independence Day address, calling it a bold and decisive message to the nation.
"This is not a government of fake Gandhis," Singh said, adding that the Prime Minister had sent a strong signal with his statement that "khoon aur paani saath nahi bahega" (blood and water will not flow together) about India's scrapping of the Indus water treaty.
Earlier, Union Home Minister Amit Shah hailed PM Modi's address as a "roadmap" for India's progress, highlighting achievements over the past 11 years and strategies for a prosperous future.
In a post on X, Shah highlighted the government's focus on national security through initiatives like 'Operation Sindoor' for eliminating terrorists, 'Mission Sudarshan Chakra' to secure infrastructure, and the 'High-Powered Demography Mission' to ensure an infiltrator-free India.
"On the occasion of the 79th Independence Day, Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi ji's address to the nation is a roadmap of the progress of the past 11 years, the strength of the present, and the strategy for a prosperous India. Whether it is the destruction of terrorists through 'Operation Sindoor,' the plan to secure the country's infrastructure through 'Mission Sudarshan Chakra,' or the resolve to build an infiltrator-free India through the 'High-Powered Demography Mission,' the Modi government is committed to making the country strong and secure," he wrote.
Shah further praised the government's focus on farmers' welfare and PM Modi's push for self-reliance in sectors including nuclear energy, critical minerals, energy, space, and jet engines.
Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi hoisted the tricolour at the Red Fort on the 79th Independence Day. (ANI)
