PM Modi Highlights Fight Against Dynasticism & Casteism

In a poignant Independence Day speech, Prime Minister Narendra Modi underscored the dangers posed by dynasticism and casteism to Indian democracy.

Addressing the nation from the Red Fort, PM Modi called for a concerted effort to eradicate these issues and announced a bold initiative to involve a significant number of politically inexperienced youth in the political system.

“Dynasticism and casteism are serious threats to our democracy,” PM Modi declared.

He further added, “It is our collective responsibility to eliminate these practices. We are launching an ambitious program to integrate 100,000 young people with no political lineage into the political arena. This move aims to combat nepotism and caste-based politics, allowing fresh perspectives to emerge.”

The Prime Minister emphasized that this initiative would foster new ideologies and offer opportunities for youth across various political parties.

“This effort will introduce a new wave of leaders who are not influenced by political heritage or caste,” PM asserted.

PM Modi Advocates ‘One Nation, One Election’ For Streamlined Democracy

In addition to addressing dynasticism and casteism, PM Modi also discussed the concept of ‘One Nation, One Election’.

He highlighted the need for a unified electoral system to streamline the democratic process.

“The country must come together to realize the vision of ‘One Nation, One Election’,” he urged. “Political parties need to support this initiative for the progress of India.”

During his address, PM Modi reflected on his ongoing commitment to reform and progress.

He noted that the successful implementation of these reforms would require the united efforts of all 1.4 billion Indians. “Together, with a shared resolve, we can achieve the goal of a prosperous and developed nation,” PM Modi asserted.

This year marked the eleventh consecutive Independence Day on which PM Modi unfurled the national flag from the ramparts of the Red Fort.

His address underscored his commitment to addressing deep-rooted political and social issues while steering the country towards a more equitable future.
