PM Modi calls for harnessing seven streams of strength under Sapt Dhara for India’s development

Prime Minister Modi said since 2014, India has entered into Free Trade Agreements with nearly 40 countries, creating enormous opportunities for Indian businesses and exporters.

Addressing the nation on the occasion of the 80th Independence Day, he called upon the country’s Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, MSMEs, to make full use of these opportunities and ensure that Indian products reach markets across the world. Mr Modi added that Indian textiles, machinery and medicines have significant potential in global markets. However, he emphasised that Indian products must meet and surpass international standards and parameters to succeed in global markets.

Prime Minister Modi said, today every Indian is embracing the spirit of Make in India and Vocal for Local. Mr Modi said, India cannot remain dependent on other nations and the country must become self-reliant.

In his address, the Prime Minister called upon the nation to harness the seven streams of strength called as Sapt Dhara. He said, in the next five to seven years, the country will achieve all those that could not be achieved in the past five to seven decades. He said, with the strength and potential of Sapt Dhara, the government will take the nation to new heights and empower it to achieve and surpass new goals.

Mr Modi said, alongside this, the immense potential of youth will be fully harnessed for building a stronger and more developed India. The first stream outlined by the Prime Minister is manufacturing. He said the second power of this Sapta Dhara is Agriculture and Food Production, the third is Technology and Innovation, the fourth is Gati Shakti, the fifth is Defence capabilities, the sixth power is the Green Economy and blue economy, and the seventh stream of Sapta Dhara is India’s Soft Power.

Prime Minister Modi said energy security is one of the major requirements of the present times and the government has taken several significant steps in this direction. He said nuclear energy is an important means of ensuring a country’s energy security.

Mr. Modi said the government is moving forward with the aim of 100 gigawatts of nuclear power capacity by 2047. He added that India has set a target of commissioning five new nuclear reactors during the current decade. The Prime Minister also highlighted that India achieved a major milestone this year in Fast Breeder Reactor technology. He said this marks a significant step towards making the country self-reliant in nuclear energy.

Prime Minister Modi said that the government has decided that one crore youth will be given training in AI skilling in the next one year. He said, this will enable them to take the lead in the global AI sector. Mr Modi said, the country has to focus on three things – cost, quality and skill.

Prime Minister said, a talent hunt will be launched across villages, cities and schools to identify talent among children aged five to 15 years. He said, the children’s talent will be identified, and they will be given special training to help them become good players for the country. He said, today India is making its place in the world of sports. Mr Modi said, in 2030, India will host the Commonwealth Games.

Prime Minister Modi announced to provide free online coaching for poor and middle class family for various public examinations. He said this is a revolutionary step towards making quality education accessible to everyone, led by top teachers. He said this will save thousands of crore rupees of Middle class family in coaching classes.

The Prime Minister asked the youth to help provide correct information digitally about their families to make Census error-free. He appealed to the youngsters to actively participate in ongoing Census exercise. On naxalism, the Prime Minister said that the people of the country gave the opportunity to serve the nation in 2014 and he resolved to make the country free from Naxalism. He expressed happiness in saying that today Naxal-Maoist violence has lost its strength and breathing its last. He said, today the Naxal-affected regions are witnessing the tricolour of development, trust and efforts.
