Sankalp se siddhi – New India Movement: Remember Mahatma Gandhi’s “Do or die” slogan? Demanding an end to British rule in India, Mahatma Gandhi on 8 August 1942 had launched a movement called “Quit India Movement”. On the occasion of remembrance and 75th Anniversary of Quit India movement, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has launched a initiative called “Sankalp Se Siddhi” calling for a New India movement from 2017 to 2022.
The similarity between Quit India & Sankalp se Siddhi is Quit India movement wanted the British Raj to end while Sankalp se siddhi aims to bring in many changes in the country for the betterment of Indian economy, society, governance, security and many other matters related to social and economic welfare of the nation.
Government of India will organize many events and activities to make the citizens aware of various social issues such as discrimination, cleanliness, poverty, caste and religious discrimination. These events would engage the masses of the society and bring in a sense of conscious responsibility to make the lives better.
It is said that this initiative will be active over a period of 5 years starting from 2017 to 2022. Many programmes and projects will be initiated under this movement that will directly influence the lives of the Indian citizens.

As a country, we have been fighting against issues of social and economic ailments. Being a vast chaotic society with so much diversity, we are lagging behind in almost everything while we draw a line of comparison with countries like China. But what makes us different is the democracy and freedom we enjoy here on this land. Initiatives and movements like this should not just be restricted to the days of launch or political memoirs. Rather, steps must be taken to create the awareness among the masses for a wider and better inclusion of the society.
