The Nation Celebrates 150 Glorious Years of Vande Mataram.

As India marks 150 years of Vande Mataram, our timeless National Song, we honour an anthem that inspired the freedom movement and continues to embody unity, devotion, and national pride.

Under the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi ji, the year long national commemoration was inaugurated on 7 Nov 2025 with the release of a commemorative stamp and coin, paying tribute to this immortal composition.

From 7 November 2025 to 7 November 2026, the nation is witnessing a vibrant cultural movement. Mass singing events, cultural concerts, quizzes, competitions, and patriotic gatherings are being organised across the country.

The response has been truly extraordinary:

• 8.4+ crore participations
• 36,202 schools
• 1,296 colleges
• 691 districts
• 53 ministries
• Participation from all 36 States and Union Territories

This is not merely a celebration. It is a people’s movement that reflects the collective spirit of Bharat.

Citizens can participate by registering at https://t.co/BcDwlduoqC, uploading a selfie with the song’s lyrics, recording a sing-along with the virtual choir, and downloading a personalised certificate to become part of this historic tribute.

The echoes of Vande Mataram continue to resonate across classrooms, campuses, and communities.

I urge every citizen to join this historic movement and strengthen this enduring legacy.

Spent the afternoon at the #AIImpactSummit in New Delhi engaging with innovators, technology leaders, and emerging startups who are building practical, scalable AI solutions for India.

What stood out to me was not the buzz around AI, but its direct application to real governance challenges. AI is no longer an abstract conversation about the future. It is implementation-ready and capable of transforming public service delivery today.

I had detailed interactions with many tech companies like SecureBlink, DashVerse, and Civet Consultants, each demonstrating how advanced technologies can strengthen governance frameworks:

➡️ Cyber resilience & digital infrastructure security
➡️ Data-driven governance dashboards
➡️ Strategic advisory & AI-enabled policy tools
➡️ Digital heritage archiving
➡️ Smart tourism management
➡️ Cyber protection for public infrastructure

Today, I see a significant opportunity to integrate AI into initiatives such as the Gyan Bharatam Mission, ensuring that India’s knowledge systems are not only preserved, but made globally accessible in secure and structured formats.

India possesses two unique strengths: world-class technological talent and one of the richest cultural heritages in human history. When innovation aligns with civilizational depth, transformation becomes responsible and sustainable.

The conversations today reaffirmed that India is not merely adapting to the AI era, we are ready to shape it.
