The central government has announced to celebrate the 'Amrit Mahotsav of Azadi' from 12 March 2021 to 15 August 2022. In this connection, on the completion of 91 years of the Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi's Salt Satyagraha, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the Amrit Mahotsav at Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad and launched its website. He also flagged off the Dandi March Yatra. The 81 people involved in this journey will travel 386 km to reach Dandi on 5 April.
In his address, Modi also mentioned Jawaharlal Nehru. He said, 'No one can forget the freedom struggle of 1857, Mahatma Gandhi's return from abroad, Lokmanya's call for complete independence, Netaji's Azad Hind Fauj slogan. There are so many fighters for whom the country expresses gratitude every day. Rani Lakshmi Bai, roaring in front of the British, be it Pandit Nehru, Sardar Patel, countless such democrats have been the pioneers of the freedom movement. '
Highlights of Modi's speech
Salt here means loyalty to us.
Modi said that salt has never been valued at its cost here. Salt here means honesty, trust, loyalty. We still say that we have eaten the salt of the country. This is because salt is a symbol of labor and equality in us. It was a symbol of India's self-reliance at that time. The British also hurt this self-reliance of India. Gandhiji understood the chronic pain of the country. Caught that pulse related to the people and seeing this, this struggle became the resolve of every Indian.
The whole world benefits from India's self-reliance in vaccine manufacturing
Modi said that Netaji Bose had said that India's freedom struggle is not only against the British Empire but against the global empire. After this, the scope of imperialism was reduced in a very short time. This is going to give hope to the whole of humanity. This is also being proved directly in the Koranakal. The whole world is benefiting from India's self-sufficiency in vaccine manufacturing. We did not give grief to anyone but are spending ourselves to overcome the suffering of others. This is the eternal philosophy of India.
Take the stories of independence to a new generation
The Prime Minister said, 'I will urge the school college to find 75 incidents as to who were the people who were fighting the legal battle. Those whose interest is in the drama, write the play. Initially, it is all handwritten, then digital. This work should be completed from 15 August. I will also urge the art world and the film world to spread the stories of freedom scattered to our generations to come. I am confident that if 130 crore countrymen join this festival, India will achieve the biggest goal.
5 posts will inspire you to move forward
The Prime Minister said, 'Freedom Struggle, Ideas at 75, Achievements at 75, Actions at 75 and Resolves at 75 ... These five pillars along with the fight for freedom as well as the dreams and duties of independent India to move forward in front of the country. Will inspire you.
India has immense reserves to be proud of
Modi said that the future of a nation is bright only when it is connected moment by moment to the womb of its past experiences and heritage. India has immense reserves to be proud of. Chetnamay is a cultural heritage. The present generation will get this opportunity in the form of Amrit. A nectar that will inspire us to do something for the country.
Dandi Yatra took India's perspective to the whole world
Modi said that the elixir of independence is the elixir of freedom. An opportunity for inspiration from freedom fighters, a celebration of new energies and resolutions. It is a celebration of the awakening of the nation. There is an opportunity to fulfill Swaraj's dreams. It is a festival to maintain global peace. Today a journey is also going to begin. It is a coincidence that the impact of the Dandi Yatra is such that the country is still moving forward today. This one visit of Gandhiji took the perspective of India to the whole world.
What is the purpose of Amrit Mahotsav?
The next year will mark 75 years of the country's independence. In this sequence, Amrit Mahotsav is starting from Friday 75 weeks ago. The program will hold a wide range of events at 75 locations across the country by 15 August 2022.

What is Dandi March or Salt Satyagraha?
Salt Satyagraha or Dandi March has been an important part of the Indian freedom struggle. This movement shook the British rule. Mahatma Gandhi traveled on foot from Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad to Dandi village in Navsari district on 12 March 1930 with 78 Satyagrahis. Two satyagraha were joined on the way.
In protest against the British salt law, Gandhiji broke the English law by marching to Dandi on March 6, 1930, making salt symbolically, after which he was arrested along with Satyagrahis. This movement made the British sleepless.
