The Prime Minister said, "The nation proudly acknowledges the contribution of the Christian Community".

Prime Minister Modi praised the contributions of the Christian community to the freedom movement and highlighted the various intellectual thinkers and leaders.

He underlined that Gandhiji himself had said that the Non-Cooperation Movement was conceived under the patronage of Sushil Kumar Rudra, Principal of St. Stephen's College.

He highlighted the crucial role played by the Christian community in giving direction to society and mentioned active participation in social service towards the poor and the deprived.

Reiterating India's resolution to be a developed nation by 2047 and the importance of the youth in the journey, the Prime Minister emphasised the need for the physical, mental and emotional fitness of the youth.

He requested that the community leaders make people aware of the movements for popularising fitness, millets, nutrition and the campaign against drugs.

Prime Minister Modi highlighted the similarity of values between different streams of social life that unite us as he gave the example of the Holy Bible, which emphasises the service of others.

"Service as the supreme religion. In the Holy Bible, truth has been given great importance and it is said that only truth will show us the path to salvation," the Prime Minister said.

"For the modern India of the 21st century, this cooperation, harmony, and spirit of Sabka Prayas will take India to new heights," he added.

"Jaiswal Has Run Ahead Of Gill": Ex-India Star's Massive T20 WC Verdict

Former India opener Aakash Chopra has suggested that Yashasvi Jaiswal is slightly ahead of Shubman Gill in the pecking order as captain Rohit Sharma's partner at the top in T20Is. Since making his debut last year, Jaiswal has been in stunning form in the shortest format of the game. Gill's form, on the other hand, has dipped since the ODI World Cup last year in India. With the T20 World Cup scheduled to be held later this year, Chopra feels Jaiswal will open the innings with Rohit during the tournament.

Gill was played in the first match, dropped in the second, and wasn't played in the third as well," Chopra said on his YouTube channel. Jaiswal helped India beat Afghanistan in the second T20I earlier this week, scoring a quickfire fifty. Considering his recent form across formats, Chopra emphasised that Jaiswal has ...
