Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised the youth of India in a passionate speech delivered from the famous Red Fort, claiming that they were the inspiration behind the country’s quick development.

A Multifaceted Approach:
Along with streamlining administrative procedures, the Start-up India programme cleared the way for a wide array of support systems. Other helpful programmes, such as the Credit Guarantee Scheme, Startup India Seed Fund Scheme, and Fund of Funds for Firms, have strengthened support at different points in the business cycle aside from tax benefits. Together, these initiatives foster a climate of growth, fostering India’s creativity and development.
Simplifying the Journey:
The Startup India program’s emphasis on streamlining the entrepreneurship path is one of its key features. The programme facilitates legal procedures, speeds up patent applications, and guarantees easier exit and compliance procedures. Additionally, it makes it easier to access lucrative industry expert collaborations, grants, competitions, and innovation laboratories, allowing companies to thrive in a supportive ecosystem.
A Glimpse into the Future:
The long-term approach of Prime Minister Modi includes a firm commitment to making India a developed country by 2047. He sees India as having one of the top three economies in the world and being a strong force. This tremendous undertaking is supported by his steadfast dedication to eliminate corruption, nepotism, and appeasement as well as his deep faith in India’s potential.
PM Modi in his speech said “Analysing the past 75 years, We see absolutely no lack of potential in India! The country known to be ‘Sone ki Chidiya‘ (Golden Bird) can once again stand up. It’s my firm belief that by 2047, India will emerge as a developed country.”
Inclusive Development:
Prime Minister Modi detailed a number of transformative actions while highlighting the government’s relentless efforts towards equitable development.

The Road Ahead:
India is on the verge of an important journey with the motto “reform, perform, and transform.” Every hope for the country could come true if Prime Minister Modi’s plan to use the “Triveni” of demographics, democracy, and diversity is successful. The nation’s trajectory towards innovation, progress, and worldwide importance is becoming more and more apparent as India’s youth emerges as a powerful force for change, supported by forward-thinking government programmes.
