										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On the 75th anniversary of India&#8217;s independence, Prime Minister Narendra Modi called for the country&#8217;s transformation to new heights, new levels of prosperity, world-class modern infrastructure, and access to quality facilities for all Indians in the next 25 years, regardless of their region or social class.</p>
<p>He did, however, remind the residents that resolve is nothing unless it is backed up by action. A resolution will remain unfulfilled unless it is accompanied by valor and hard work. As a result, we must attain all of our goals with absolute valor and hard effort, Modi stated from the Red Fort&#8217;s ramparts.</p>
