Observing that youths are India’s growth engines and
the whole world is looking at them, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday
said the New Educational Policy ensure greater freedom for youths to take
decisions according t evolving situations.
Delivering the 42nd Convocation of the Anna University–the first Prime Minister
to address in 70 years after India’s first PM Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru–Modi said
“We are lucky that you people will build your future along with India’s future.”
“Your growth is India’s growth, your learning is India’s learning, your future is
India’s future. Take every opportunity and make the best out of it”, he said
Stating that a strong government was not restrictive, but responsive, Modi said
it will not move into every domain, but will limit itself and make space for people’s
talent.
Earlier there was a notion that strong government means it should control
everything and everyone. “We have changed this. Strong government does not
control everything and everyone. It controls the system. A strong government
is not restrictive, but is responsive. A strong government does not move into
every domain. It limits itself and makes space for people’s talent. This is why
you see reforms in all spheres and people have the freedom to take decisions
on their own”, Modi said.
The NEP ensure greater freedom for the youth to take decision according to
evolving situations, he added.
