Mumbai: Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said the state is moving forward very rapidly in the entire development system of India, and that Viksit Maharashtra is making a special contribution to realise the dream of a Viksit Bharat.
“The country is continuously progressing under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In just a decade, India has made a huge leap from the eleventh-largest economy in the world to the fourth-largest economy. Today, the state of Maharashtra is moving forward very rapidly in the entire development system of India. Viksit Maharashtra is making a special contribution to the dream of a Viksit India. This development story of the country will not stop anymore. The Prime Minister has given the slogan of Atmanirbhar Bharat, which is very important. We all have to make joint efforts to make India self-reliant,” he asserted.

India is making progress in various fields. India has also taken a firm step in the space sector. To make India self-reliant, all the products and systems that exist in the world will have to be manufactured in India with quality. "Innovation, startups, and technology will have to be established in India with the same level of capability. India is moving in that direction," he said.
Referring to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s call for 'Swadeshi', the chief minister said, wherever possible, everyone will have to work to strengthen the country to become Atmanirbhar by opting for Swadeshi.
“During Operation Sindoor, the Indian Army showed the whole world the power of the country. In Operation Sindoor, the Indian Army destroyed all the terrorist bases in a very disciplined manner. Through this, the attacks on India were repelled. Due to this, the world has also understood what the new India is. Therefore, I congratulate and thank all the Army officers and soldiers who participated in Operation Sindoor,” he added.
