PM Modi hails youth for India's startup success

Lauding the youth for their contribution to the country's development, Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi said that India's youth has taken the nation to the top-3 in the world to create start-ups.

"India's youth has taken the nation to the top-3 in the world in terms of creating start-ups. The unicorns created during Covid show the strength of our youth. Over 50 unicorns came into existence during Covid. They are all solving the country's problems, which are working with the mantra of 'Nation First'," the Prime Minister said while addressing NCC PM Rally at Cariappa Ground.

"Today, when the world is looking at India with so much hope and aspirations, India can not weaken in its efforts. Today, as we celebrate Azadi ka Amrut Mahotsav, our youth play a key role in ensuring that we continue our momentum," he said.

PM Modi hailed the contribution by National Cadet Corps for the country and said, today, all the young men and women in NCC, NSS, most of them were born in this century itself. You have to take India till 2047. That's why with your efforts and your resolve, the fulfilment of those resolutions will be possible, and India will be successful."

He also said, "No power in the world can stop the country whose youth starts moving ahead with the thinking of nation first. India's success in the field of sports today is also a great example of this."

The Prime Minister mentioned that it is NCC's responsibility to ensure that the things learned in NCC are put into action not only when all in uniform but also in society.

The rally is the culmination of NCC Republic Day Camp and is held on January 28 every year.
