My Election Proves Poor Indians Can Not Just Dream But Also Fulfil Them: President Murmu
New Delhi, July 25: On Monday, President Droupadi Murmu claimed that the underprivileged in India can not only dream but also realize such ambitions as evidenced by her election to the highest constitutional position. After taking the oath to serve as India’s fifteenth president, she addressed the country. N.V. Ramana, the Chief Justice of India, gave the oath.
She started her speech by greeting people and said, “I humbly greet all the fellow citizens from this sacred Parliament, a symbol of the hopes, aspirations, and rights of all the citizens of India. Your affection, trust, and support will be my greatest strength in discharging my functions and responsibilities.”
President Murmu thanked all MPs and MLAs for electing her.
“My election to the post of President is proof of the fact that in India, the poor can dream and also fulfill those dreams. Reaching this office is not my personal achievement but that of all the poor people in the country. It is the power of India’s democracy that a girl born in a poor tribal home could reach the topmost constitutional post,” President Murmu said.
In addition, President Murmu stated that it is a coincidence that she received this additional responsibility in this, the country’s 75th year of freedom when it was still celebrating its 50th anniversary of independence.
She reassured her compatriots, particularly the women and the young people, that she would put their interests first while she was in this position.
“I want to tell the youth of our country that you are not only building your own future but also laying the foundation of future India. As the President of the country, I will always support you fully.
The President emphasized the need to move more quickly toward fulfilling the demands made of independent Indian citizens by the freedom fighters.
