Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Independence Day said that 'Aatmanirbhar Bharat' has now become 'mantra' for the 130 crore Indians.
"Amid COVID-19 pandemic, 130 crore Indians took the resolve to be self-reliant and 'Aatmanirbhar Bharat' is on the mind of India.
This dream is turning into a pledge.
Aatmanirbhar Bharat has become a 'mantra' for the 130 crore Indians today.
I am confident that India will realise this dream.
I am confident of the abilities, confidence and potential of my fellow Indians.
Once we decide to do something, we do not rest until we achieve that goal," said Modi.
