Lucknow,
\nUnion Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Friday asserted that by 2022, a solution would be found to the Kashmir problem as also other problems like terrorism, naxalism and North East insurgency.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are a lot of problems\u2014terrorism, naxalism, Kashmir problem. Much is not needed to be said about these problems. But I can assure you this much that by 2022, we have pledged to create a \u2018new India\u2019…So a solution will be found to all these problems before 2022. We want to assure the countrymen on this,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Singh was addressing a programme here titled \u2018Sankalp se Siddhi \u2014 New India Movement (2017-2022) Naye Bharat kaa nirmaan\u2019.<\/p>\n
On the occasion, he administered oath to the gathering for making India \u2018Swachh\u2019 (clean), poverty-free, corruption- free, terror-free, communalism-free and casteism-free.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf people could take (Quit India) pledge in 1942 and get freedom in 1947, then why is it so that after 70 years of Independence, India is not that self-reliant which it should had been?<\/p>\n
\u201cI would congratulate Prime Minister Narendra Modi for taking a pledge to create a \u2018new India\u2019 before the country celebrates its 75th year of freedom,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
He said Mahatma Gandhi understood the importance of cleanliness and had made it a campaign but it is Modi who gave it the shape of a mass movement.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor 85 long years after the first war of Independence in 1857, India understood the country\u2019s power and kept on gathering it.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn 1942, the entire nation stood united when Mahatma Gandhi said \u2018British should Quit India\u2019 and gave the clarion call of \u2018do or die\u2019. … It was the result of this pledge which bore fruits five years later,\u201d Singh said.<\/p>\n
He said if in five years after launch of Quit India movement, India could achieve Independence, \u201cthen why can\u2019t we make a \u2018new India\u2019 after taking pledge in 2017 and realising it in 2022?\u201d<\/p>\n
He said Pandavs also had achieved victory in Mahabharata because of their pledge and resoluteness.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis (new India) will be an India where there will be no poverty or illiteracy, every person will have a house, no one will die of shortage of medicine. On the global stage, India will emerge as a powerful nation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Talking about corruption, the home minister said, \u201cIn the first meeting of the Union Cabinet, we took a pledge to fight corruption. Our pledge was to change power and system.\u201d<\/p>\n
Referring to GST which was rolled out on July 1, he said, \u201cMany of our friends are having problems but after a few months, all will praise GST. We passed GST with the pledge of \u2018one-nation, one-tax.\u201d<\/p>\n
Singh said BJP does not indulge in politics of government formation \u201cbut for nation building and development.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
