Today this crowd has become a new history. Just as the countrymen started joining the Dandi March, similarly the Amrit Mahotsav of Independence saw such a huge crowd of public participation that a new history was made. This journey of 75 years is becoming a period to realize the dream of a prosperous India.

PM Modi said that 'this festival is concluding with the Meri Mati Mera Desh campaign. Today, the foundation stone of a memorial for the Amrit Mahotsav of Independence has also been laid. This monument will always remind future generations of this historic event. Today the foundation of My Youth India Organization, i.e. MY India, has been laid. My Youth India organization is going to play a big role in nation-building in the 21st century.

The Prime Minister said that the 'Meri Maati Mera Desh' campaign is a direct example of how the youth of India can unite and achieve every goal. Many great civilizations have ended, but there is a consciousness in the soil of India that has saved this nation from ancient times till today. This is the soil that connects our souls to every corner of the country through intimacy and spirituality.
