Kanyakumari, Dec 24: In a dynamic and thought-provoking national meeting held at the Vivekananda Kendra campus in Kanyakumari, key leaders and influencers gathered to discuss the ongoing initiatives and future goals of the Self-reliant India Campaign. The event was marked by the presence of Bhagwati Prakash Sharma, the All India Coordinator of the campaign, along with esteemed guests including Bhagaiya ji, All India Executive Member of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, and Shridhar Bamboo ji, National Patron of the campaign and Chairman of Zoho Corporation. The highlight of the meeting was the insightful address by Padma Shri Sridhar Vembu, owner of Zoho Corporation, who shed light on the economic model inspired by China. Mr. Vembu emphasized the need for a shift in the prevailing economic development model, citing the transformative impact it has on the youth. He illustrated this point with a case study of a foreign company employing 35,000 women in Tamil Nadu, leading to significant changes in life, social, cultural, and family values, and a decline in birth rates. To address these challenges, Mr. Vembu presented a detailed roadmap for an alternative economic development model. The discussions aimed to encourage a reconsideration of current approaches and fostered dialogue on creating a more sustainable and self-reliant India. Swadeshi Pracharak Shri Sunil Kumar ji from Jammu and Kashmir province also contributed to the dialogue during the mega meeting, sharing perspectives with his group of workers at the Vivekananda Centre in Kanyakumari, Tamil Nadu. The diverse gathering included participants from various states, such as the All India Co-Organizer of Swadeshi Jagran Manch, Mr. Satish Kumar, and workers from the All India Executive of the Self-reliant India Abhiyan. The collaborative effort sought to explore effective solutions and initiatives to propel India towards self-reliance. As the nation grapples with economic challenges, this national meeting provided a platform for influential voices to converge, share insights, and collectively work towards shaping a more resilient and self-reliant future for India. |
