Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal greeted the countrymen during the

program held at Chhatrasal Stadium  .

The CM said that I am seeing that for the last few days, the way there is tremendous gaiety, joy, there is a passion for patriotism all around.

It is time to remember those martyrs, to remember those people who have laid down their lives to liberate the country.

Babasaheb Ambedkar, Bhagat Singh, Jawaharlal Nehru, Mahatma Gandhi, Ashfaq Ulla Khan, Chandrashekhar Azad and there are many such people, about whom we do not even know but they have fought for freedom for the country.

Today, on the occasion of 75 years of independence from this platform, I remember and bow to all those freedom fighters. 

Arvind Kejriwal further said that it is time to celebrate progress.

But on this occasion it is also time to think about what are the challenges facing the country today and in which direction we have to go in future.

75 years is not a very big time in the life of any country.

But not too little time.

Today, on the occasion of 75 years of independence, questions are coming in the minds of many people that if we became independent 75 years ago, then in these 75 years why the countries which became independent after us have overtaken me?

Singapore got independence after 15 years from us but why did it go ahead of us?

Japan was completely destroyed in the Second World War, it was over, but look today.

Germany was over but today Germany has overtaken us.

Are the people of India anything less?

The people of India are the most hardworking and good people, then why did India lag behind?

God has given everything to us.

When God created the earth, he made the most beautiful India.

When man was created, he made the most intelligent Indian.

The rich countries of the world have definitely done two things.

First- Every rich country made arrangements for the good education of its children.

If India wants to become rich, then all its children will have to arrange for good education.

Second- All the rich countries made arrangements for good treatment of their people.

When every child of Mother India will get a good education, then only the immortal tricolor will fly with pride in the sky.

The CM further said in his address that only when every fellow of India will get good treatment, then only the immortal tricolor will be proudly hoisted in the sky.

Today in our country 27 crore children go to school every day.

10 crore in private school, 17 crore in government.

Many government schools are in very bad condition in the country, some government schools are also good.

If a driver sends his child to a government school, can his child become a doctor engineer?

Can see in Delhi.

Today in Delhi a poor man's child can dream of becoming a doctor, engineer, lawyer.

Education revolution has come in Delhi.

Today after 12th, Kushal Garg has been admitted in AIIMS, his father earns 10-12 thousand as a carpenter.

That child will take his family forward.

There is a child Saumit Gaur, father is a plumber, admission has been done in IIT.

When our government was formed in Delhi in 2015, the same was the condition of government schools in Delhi.

There was no education, the infrastructure was very bad and there was filth.

There was disappointment all around.

There was disappointment among parents, teachers and children.

I called Manish ji and told him that make a plan and we have to give maximum importance to education.

Tell me how much money you want.

After this we gave 25% of our budget to education.

Today, this situation of education inside Delhi, 99.9% results of Delhi government schools came last year.

4 lakh children got their names cut from private schools and came to government schools.

When the President of America came to India, his wife came to see the Delhi government school.

Today, there is tremendous positive energy in the government schools of Delhi and 18 lakh children study in the government schools of Delhi.

Kejriwal or Manish Sisodia did not do this feat, our children, parents and teachers thanked all of them very much.

This miracle can happen all over the country.

Today, 17 crore children are studying in government schools in the country, nothing is known about their future, their future is in the dark.

What Delhi has shown can happen in the country as well.

130 crore people will have to take a pledge that they have to make their country the number one country in the world.

If we take this resolution, then the next resolution will have to be taken, good and free education will have to be arranged for every child of the country.

There are government schools in the country, there are children, there are teachers too, but the bus system is bad.

The CM said that just as government schools have been fine in Delhi in 5 years, it can happen in the country as well, but the condition is that a resolution has to be taken that education will have to be given maximum importance.

We taught business to children in class 11th and 12th in Delhi.

Gave him 2000 rupees per child and said that think of doing some business.

For example, when 10 children came together to see that there was a lot of theft in our colony and they formed a company Digital Security.

He made an alarm that if a thief comes, the alarm will sound, the phone will go off and the thief will be caught.

Their products sold well.

In another example, 4 children together made a chocolate and so far have sold chocolates worth 1.5 lakh rupees.

Today, talk to the children of class XI and XII of the Delhi government, not a single one will say that I will leave school and do a job, rather they will say that we will do business.

don't call education free b

Arvind Kejriwal said that do not call education free.

Parents do not give free Bee to their child.

These are our children, if there is a shortage of money, then we will eat less bread for one time but will give free and good education to the children.

39 countries give free education, only education will make India a rich country in one generation.

Giving good treatment to people is not free rewari.

People have to sell jewelery and land for treatment.

We have to take a vow that if anyone out of 130 crores is ill, then everyone will get him treated together.

Treatment of people is free in all rich countries, we do not need insurance, we need a hospital.
