Prime Minister Narendra Modi yesterday i.e., on 8th September inaugurated the statue of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose and also revamped the Central Vista Avenue and the Kartavya Path which has been renamed from Rajpath. The statue unveiled by Modi was installed at the India Gate hexagon. The jet-black granite statue has been placed under the Grand Canopy located at the centre of the Hexagon, between India Gate and the National War Memorial. Addressing the nation in the ceremony PM Modi said, “I congratulate all the countrymen who are witnessing this historic moment. We are leaving behind the past and adding new colours to the picture of the future.” Narendra Modi said, “King’s Way which was also called Raj Path was a symbol of slavery and it has become a past now. A new history is created in the form of the Kartavya Path. I congratulate all the countrymen for getting rid of another symbol of slavery in the Amrit Kaal which is the 75th year of independence.” He said, “Today, a huge statue of our national hero Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose has also been installed near India Gate. At the time of slavery, there was a statue of the representative of the British monarchy. Today, the country has also established a modern, strong India by installing Netaji’s statue in the same place.” Narendra Modi also shared his thoughts about Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose. He said, “Subhash Chandra Bose was such a great man who was beyond the challenge of position and resources. His acceptance was such that the whole world considered him a leader. He had courage and self-respect. He had ideas and vision. He had leadership ability, and policies.” PM Modi tweeted his heartfelt gratitude and also he considers Netaji as his ideal.
