He said initiatives such as Trust’s Bridge Schools and Uttar Pradesh’s Atal Residential Schools were helping address the social and educational fallout of the colonial era by connecting underprivileged children with formal schooling. Technology does not discriminate, and new India has connected the strength of villages with technology,” Yogi said. “Our goal is to prepare a new generation that is both global and rooted, familiar with modern technology, but carrying India in their hearts, pride in their culture, awareness of their roots, sensitivity toward society, and a spirit of ‘Nation First’. The chief minister described senior BJP leader and former Vice President Venkaiah Naidu as a cultural and spiritual link between North and South India, and credited him with giving Swarna Bharat Trust a distinct identity since its founding.
Lucknow: Chief minister Yogi Adityanath , who was in Nellore on Monday to attend the 25th anniversary celebrations of the Swarna Bharat Trust, said foreign invasions and colonial rule had weakened India’s rural system and disrupted traditional community structures.
This broad acceptance was evident in the way he discharged his duties as Chairperson of the Rajya Sabha,” he said, adding that Naidu’s contribution extended beyond politics, including efforts to popularise Telugu culture, cuisine and attire in other parts of the country. “As long as the system is not safe, families will not send their daughters outside,” he said, citing Uttar Pradesh’s “BC Sakhi” initiative under Mission Shakti as a model for combining safety with livelihood and service delivery. He said women were trained to use digital devices and linked to banking services, enabling villagers to access banking at home while the local women earned an income.
“Such a towering personality, one who rises above the boundaries of party and ideology to carry everyone along and enjoys universal acceptance, is rare in public life.
Chief Minister Highlights Shared Goals with Prime Minister Modi
The Chief Minister commended Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his long-standing commitment to public service, which began in 2001—the same year the Trust was established. He emphasized that, 25 years later, both leaders are united in their efforts towards the vision of Viksit Bharat, or Developed India.
