He said despite all the challenges it faced, India forged a way ahead, and moved in all spheres. India’s economic, social and political development has been its ultimate test.

He said, “When we attained freedom there were many skeptics who doubted our development trajectory. But, they did not know there is something different about the people of this land. They did not know that this soil is special.”

The Prime Minister also attacked corruption, nepotism and dynasty politics in his Independence Day 2022 address. PM Modi said, “Today, the nation shows anger towards corruption, but not the corrupted. Until and unless, people have the mentality of penalizing the corrupt, the nation cannot progress at optimum pace.”
