Children should continue to develop their career, as well as serve society to best of their abilities: PM

The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, today presented the National Bravery Awards to 25 children. 

Congratulating the award winners and their parents, the Prime Minister said that the presence of mind, quick thinking, selfless determination, and sensitivity for fellow human beings in distress were the most important elements of the acts of bravery performed by these children.

The Prime Minister added that for the award winners, this act of bravery should not become an end in itself. He said life must continue to evolve, and the children should continue to develop their career, and continue to serve society to the best of their abilities. He said that the book – Life progression of ICCW National Bravery Awardees – which he had released today, touched upon these aspects.

The Minister for Women and Child Development, Smt Maneka Gandhi, was present on the occasion.

The National Bravery Award Scheme was initiated by the ICCW – Indian Council for Child Welfare – to give due recognition to the children who distinguish themselves by performing outstanding deeds of bravery and meritorious service and to inspire other children to emulate their examples.

Prime Minister shares Sanskrit Subhashitam highlighting respect for nature and environmental stewardship
July 30, 2026

The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, said that respect for nature, the environment and the entire creation lies at the very core of our existence. He called upon everyone to participate, with a spirit of gratitude and selfless service towards nature, in building a healthy, prosperous and strong nation.

The Prime Minister shared a Sanskrit Subhashitam-

“शं नो द्यावापृथिवी पूर्वहूतौ शमन्तरिक्षं दृशये नो अस्तु।

शं न ओषधीर्वनिनो भवन्तु शं नो रजसस्पतिरस्तु जिष्णुः॥”

The Subhashitam conveys that May Dyuloka and the Earth, which have been revered since the beginning of creation, always be auspicious for us. May the intermediate space between the Earth and the Sun be beneficial and enlightening for our lives. May all medicinal herbs and forest plants provide us with health, nourishment, and happiness. May the all-pervading and victorious Lord of all worlds ever grant us welfare, peace, and prosperity.

The Prime Minister wrote on X;

“प्रकृति, पर्यावरण और समस्त सृष्टि का सम्मान हमारे अस्तित्व के मूल में है। आइए, हम इनके प्रति पूरी कृतज्ञता और सेवाभाव के साथ एक स्वस्थ, समृद्ध और सशक्त राष्ट्र के निर्माण में सहभागी बनें।

शं नो द्यावापृथिवी पूर्वहूतौ शमन्तरिक्षं दृशये नो अस्तु।

शं न ओषधीर्वनिनो भवन्तु शं नो रजसस्पतिरस्तु जिष्णुः॥”
