Lieutenant Governor unveils statue of renowned social worker Shri Vijay Bahadur Singh in Ghazipur
Jammu, Apr 21: Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Tuesday called for building India which our freedom fighters once dreamed of and in which every section and every individual is part of the mainstream of progress. India is moving decisively towards becoming a developed nation. The goal of 2047 is not merely a date; it is a national resolve, the Lieutenant Governor said. The Lieutenant Governor was speaking at the statue unveiling ceremony of Shri Vijay Bahadur Singh, a well known social worker and the founder of Mahamandaleshwar Shri Bal Krishna Yati Inter College at Ghazipur, Uttar Pradesh. Paying homage to Shri Vijay Bahadur Singh, the Lieutenant Governor that he discharged his duties without any expectation, served without any desire for fame, and built not for himself but for the coming generations. The Lieutenant Governor emphasized that we must carry the ideals of Shri Vijay Bahadur Singh Ji, a true karma yogi, to every segment of society. I feel particularly proud that Shri Vijay Bahadur Singh Ji did not ask what Bindravan could do for him; instead, he showed what Bindravan and the Jakhania region could do for themselves. This Inter College, born of a peoples movement, is just a small symbol of his transformative work. Shri Vijay Bahadur Singh Ji did not merely establish a college; he made a pledge, a promise to the future. In 1974, when he laid the foundation of this institution, there was no major financial support and no assurance of success. All he had was an unshakeable belief that education is the power which can change society, the Lieutenant Governor said. In his address, the Lieutenant Governor spoke about service, sacrifice and nation building. He highlighted that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India has taken development beyond mere statistics and carried it to every doorstep. The Lieutenant Governor said that Crores of families who once had no roof over their heads now have their own homes, and this has brought them dignity and security in society. Roads have reached every village, the number of airports has doubled, the digital revolution has connected every section of society. Today the marginalised section have bank accounts, they have an identity, they hold smart mobile phones for financial transactions, and in my view this is not merely technological progress but social empowerment. In far flung regions of the country, new schools, new universities and a new education policy together have begun to build an India in which the hands of the youth hold the reins of the future. The facilities now available particularly for girls are unprecedented in our history, and the purpose of education through innovation and research is no longer merely to pass exams but to create an aware and responsible citizen, he further said.
