Praising the visionary Prime Minister Narendra Modi for taking the country on the path of all-round development, he said, “Bharat is making strides in all sectors and will be a developed state by 2047, our Independence Centenary.”
The Governor attributed the policy of British to divide Indians into Aryans and Dravidians to reign in them. He said, “Due to colonisation, we lost the emotional connection with nature and became strangers. The British thought humans were the masters of creation and that the rest of the creations were created for our pleasure. It was directly opposite of what we believed in. There were two opposite views — one which says I am the master and the other which says I am one among the all.”
Further, the governor said “Through their new education system, the British tried to destroy our institutions and values. Over the period they infused in us the sense of this conflict’s ‘inferiority complex’ and we started looking at whatever the West was as superior.”
Though our Constitution begins with India which is Bharat, unfortunately, we have lost connection with Bharat. After independence, the country was created as a new India with the vision of colonisers who divided us in terms of race, religion, region, and language, They are the ones who created Ariyam, Dravidam, and different kinds of ethnicities, Ravi added.
