A<\/strong>s \u2018Rajpath\u2019 turns into \u2018Kartavya Path\u2019, the nation moves forward to fulfil its commitment to \u2018panch pran\u2019. The celebrations on the occasion of the renaming of Rajpath along with the installation of the statue of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose at the India Gate canopy remind us of the emergence of a \u2018New India\u2019 which is looking forward to overcoming every kind of challenge in the \u2018Amrit Kaal\u2019. The glittering ceremony watched by millions across the nation has filled the nation with new enthusiasm and zeal to make its mark globally with a newfound energy and dynamism. Amid a festive atmosphere and the singing of inspirational songs set to the tunes of Indian musical instruments, the historic occasion was addressed by the Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, who elaborated on the vision of a developed India, confident of meeting the aspirations of the people. The occasion marks a huge turning point in the history of the nation wherein a \u2018New India\u2019 through its actions seeks to march forward on the strength of its own while heralding a new era of national reconstruction.<\/p>\n

It is highly unfortunate to note that even after 75 years of independence, many symbols of slavery still exist in the country and are even glorified by some forces who want to stop the onward march of the Indian nation. The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, in his address to the nation from the ramparts of the Red Fort on Independence Day, has called on the nation to commit to \u2018panch pran\u2019 in the coming 25 years of the \u2018Amrit Kaal\u2019. Among the five \u2018pran\u2019, he clearly called for removing every trace of the colonial mindset while pursuing the goal of developed India. In the actions of the Modi government, one can see continuous efforts aimed at getting rid of the symbols of slavery. While Rajpath has been renamed as \u2018Kartavya Path\u2019 and Netaji statue occupies the place where the King George V statue was placed, many more initiatives have already been taken to pave the path of a \u2018New India\u2019. The renaming of Race Course Road to \u2018Lok Kalyan Marg\u2019, the echo of Indian patriotic songs at the Beating Retreat ceremony, the adoption of the symbol of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj by the Indian Navy by removing the ensign of slavery; the building of the National War Memorial, the change in time and date of the presentation of the Indian Budget, which had followed the times of the British Parliament for so many decades; liberating the students from the compulsion of foreign language through NEP; and the abolition of many obsolete colonial laws are some of the initiatives taken by the Modi government to get rid of the slave mentality that has haunted India for so many decades.<\/p>\n

While one of the \u2018panch pran\u2019 calls for removing all traces of the colonial mindset, another one calls for taking pride in the nation\u2019s roots and the great legacy of India. It is in pursuance of this pledge that the legacy of the freedom movement, by building the Statue of Unity, renaming the islands of Andaman after Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, building PM museum, museum for Tribal freedom fighters, Babasaheb\u2019s \u2018Panchtirtha\u2019, imparting grandeur to cultural and civilizational centres across India are some of the efforts which are not only creating a robust cultural infrastructure in the country by modernising India with the spirit of \u2018Amrit Kaal\u2019. The name \u2018Rajpath\u2019 which was the Hindi translation of the colonial \u2018Kingsway\u2019, indicated a mindset that wanted to rule over the people while the name \u2018Kartavyapath\u2019 reminds the citizens of the duty expected of them in realising the dreams of a developed India. In his \u2018panch pran\u2019, the Prime Minsiter, Shri Narendra Modi, has immensely emphasised the importance of inculcating a strong sense of duty towards the nation. There is no doubt that the entire stretch from the National War Memorial to Kartavya Path and Rashtrapati Bhawan will fill the people with new inspiration, sense of duty, and energy and echo the mantra of \u2018Nation First\u2019 in everyone\u2019s heart.<\/p>\n
