Prime Minister Narendra Modi has urged people across the country to stand together towards making the country free from corruption. While addressing the Nation, PM Narendra Modi said that secrecy was essential for this action and it is only when PM was speaking, that various agencies like banks, post offices, railways, hospitals and others are being informed. He hoped that people across the country would successfully carry out this great task of national importance. He appealed to all political parties, all governments, social services organizations, the media and all sections of the society to take part in this with enthusiasm and make it a success.
The Prime Minister today extended a welcome to Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla on his return to Earth from his landmark mission aboard the International Space Station. He remarked that as India’s first astronaut to have journeyed to the ISS, Group Captain Shukla’s achievement marks a defining moment in the nation’s space exploration journey.
In a post on X, he wrote:
“I join the nation in welcoming Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla as he returns to Earth from his historic mission to Space. As India’s first astronaut to have visited International Space Station, he has inspired a billion dreams through his dedication, courage and pioneering spirit. It marks another milestone towards our own Human Space Flight Mission - Gaganyaan.”
