when India chose to become a democracy it set for itself a daunting and difficult path because to uphold Democratic principles in a country that was yet to experience Unity as a separate entity and that to in a nation that was as diverse as one could be which we saw today was surely No Easy Task and today we can see right in front of us as prime minister Narendra Modi walks along the enclosures that as the largest democracy in the world India has kept its democracy vibrant and strong its people are its priority its people are its engines driving change powering growth giving direction and therein lies the core of a future developed Nation a developed nation that that young Generations sitting in this audience and young viewers all of them tuned in to this live telecast that's a future in store for them and for all of us in fact a question that often comes up in today's world of quick turnaround times and task delivery orientation is what is the role of traditional ceremonies and protocol well institutions need to be nurtured organically and today's celebration is an organic nurturing of that institution like we nurture our democracy beyond the individual focusing on the nation a healthy democracy resting on transition of generations of people of parties and power and the seamlessness of constitutional nature and dignity of these transitions strengthen a democracy and India is a live example of not only transitions but also of a democracy growing from strength to [Music] strength sah Sam an Sut carer Mony B and that's why National Day Celebrations are reflective in

Valor was the lens we used to view the parade times are changing contexts are changing signs and techniques and technology is changing in fact The Art of War is changing but building People to People
