National Anthem was sung. On this occasion, Minister of State Girish Chandra

Yadav and Superintendent of Police Dr Kaustubh honored various police station

incharges, constables etc. who did excellent work in the district by giving

them certificates.

On this occasion,

the Minister of State said that today on this occasion we remember our brave

soldiers and pay our tribute to them. Those who fought the freedom struggle

under the leadership of Gandhiji and liberated the country, due to whose

tireless sacrifice we are breathing freely today. Certainly today we are

feeling proud. You all know that India is moving towards becoming a developed nation.

India has got a new identity on the global forums. India has emerged as a

powerful country in the world. Certainly, if we talk about today, India got the

opportunity to lead the G20 nations. It is a matter of great pride for us. The

government has brought a change in the life of the poor by taking advantage of

the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana. Under the Swachh Bharat Mission, toilets are being

built in the houses of every poor person. For this, our government has worked

to bring all the welfare schemes to the people. Under the Ayushman Bharat Card

Scheme, a provision of Rs 5 lakh for treatment has been made for the poor. Our

government has tried to bring up the people living below the poverty line.

Certainly, we appreciate the work of the brave soldiers and police personnel of

the country. Today from the Red Fort, the Prime Minister of India has launched

a new scheme, the Pradhan Mantri Vikasit Bharat Yojana. The Prime Minister had

set a target of making 3 crore women Lakhpati Didi in the entire country. This

target has been achieved so far and soon we will cross this figure. Our country

is moving towards becoming a developed India.
