Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday said the abrogation of Article 370 had integrated Kashmir with the rest of the country, describing it as one of the major achievements of the Narendra Modi government.<\/p>\n
Addressing a gathering ahead of flagging off the \u2018Run for Unity\u2019 in New Delhi on the occasion of Rashtriya Ekta Diwas, marking the birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Shah said several significant decisions had been taken during Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s tenure, including the abrogation of Article 370, elimination of Naxalism and implementation of the One Nation, One Tax system.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen we succeed in building a drug-free India, it will be the most significant achievement among all these initiatives for the country\u2019s youth and its future,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Shah set December 31, 2029, as the target for making India completely drug-free, saying the vision of a \u2018Viksit Bharat\u2019 begins with the creation of a \u2018Nasha-Mukt Bharat\u2019.<\/p>\n
He said India\u2019s linguistic, cultural, traditional and religious diversity is its strength and reflected the message of national unity associated with Sardar Patel.<\/p>\n
Referring to the government\u2019s fight against Naxalism, Shah said India has moved beyond the shadow of Naxalism on March 31 this year and was now moving towards becoming a drug-free nation.<\/p>\n
He said collective efforts are needed to protect the country\u2019s youth from drugs and build a stronger and more prosperous India. (KNO)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
