He also gave expression to Karma, stressing the creation of individual and institution,” he added.Along with the period of hundreds of years of Bhakti movement, Karma movement also took place in the country, the PM said.”The people of India were fighting slavery and imperialism. Be it Chhatrapati Shivaji, Maharana Pratap, Rani Lakshmibai, Rani Chennamma of Kittur, Lord Birsa Munda’s armed struggle. The karma-rigorous cultivation of tenacity and sacrifice of ordinary citizens against injustice and exploitation was at its peak. This became a major inspiration of our freedom struggle in future,” he added.”The need of the hour was to create an ideological movement to win the war of independence on the establishment of knowledge and at the same time prepare a new generation for the creation of a bright future India.
