New Delhi. Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Rashtra Prerna Sthal today in Lucknow, the capital of Uttar Pradesh. Statues of Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee, Pandit Deen Dayal Upadhyay and Bharat Ratna Atal Bihari Vajpayee have been installed here. Addressing the public meeting on this occasion, Narendra Modi said, Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee has played a decisive role in giving direction to the country. It was Dr. Mukherjee who rejected the constitution of two constitutions, two signs and two heads in India. Even after independence, this system in Jammu and Kashmir was a big challenge to the integrity of India. BJP is proud that our government got the opportunity to demolish the wall of Article 370. Today the Constitution of India is fully applicable in Jammu and Kashmir also.

Modi said, Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee had laid the foundation of economic self-reliance in India. He gave the first industrial policy to the country, that is, he laid the foundation of industrialization in India. Today, we are giving new heights to the same mantra of self-reliance. Made in India goods are reaching the whole world today. Here in Uttar Pradesh itself, a big campaign of ‘One District, One Product’ is going on. The capacity of small industries and small units is increasing. A huge defense corridor is being built in Uttar Pradesh. BrahMos missile, whose power the world saw during Operation Sindoor, is now being manufactured in Lucknow. The day is not far when the Defense Corridor of Uttar Pradesh will be known across the world for defense manufacturing.

PM said, decades ago Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay had dreamed of Antyodaya. He believed that the scale of India’s progress should be measured by the smile on the face of the last person standing in the last row. Modi has made Deendayal ji’s dream his resolution. Today the land of Lucknow is witnessing a new inspiration. Earlier, there was a mountain of garbage on more than 30 acres of the land on which this inspiration site has been built. It was completely abolished in the last three years. I congratulate all the workers, artisans, planners, Yogi ji and his entire team associated with this project.
