While referring to the last Independence Day celebration, CM Yogi said that people took part in the programmes organised as part of the celebrations of Amrit Mahotsav of Independence wholeheartedly.

“Perhaps none of us had seen the celebration of 1947, but what does independence mean? Under the leadership of PM Modi, India of 140 crore people united and celebrated independence by hoisting the tricolour in every house. The celebrations reflected the impact of the standards set by PM Modi in 8 years of his governance,” he said.

Yogi said that India has become the fifth largest economy in the world replacing Britain which ruled it for 200 years and soon it is going to become the fourth largest economy.

“When the pandemic brought big powers of the world to their knees, India grew as the fastest economy while preserving democratic values. The world is looking at India with curiosity. Wherever there is a crisis in the world, people look at PM Modi with hope,” he said while adding that “Modi hai to mumkin hai” is no longer confined to India and has become a global slogan.
