Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will inaugurate the 'Kartavya Path' on 8th September, 2022 at 7 PM. It symbolises a shift from erstwhile Rajpath being an icon of power to Kartavya Path being an example of public ownership and empowerment. Prime Minister will also unveil the statue of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose at India Gate on the occasion. These steps are in line with Prime Minister’s second ‘Panch Pran’ for New India in Amrit Kaal: ‘remove any trace of colonial mindset’.

Over the years, Rajpath and adjoining areas of the Central Vista Avenue had been witnessing pressure of increasing traffic of visitors, putting stress on its infrastructure. It lacked basic amenities like public toilets, drinking water, street furniture and adequate parking space. Further, there was inadequate signage, poor maintenance of water features and haphazard parking. Also, a need was felt to organise the Republic Day parade and other National events in a less disruptive manner with minimal restrictions on public movement. The redevelopment has been done bearing these concerns in mind while also ensuring the integrity and continuity of architectural character.

Kartavya Path will exhibit beautified landscapes, lawns with walkways, added green spaces, refurbished canals, new amenity blocks, improved signages and vending kiosks. Further, new pedestrian underpasses, improved parking spaces, new exhibition panels and upgraded night lighting are some other features that will enhance the public experience. It also includes a number of sustainability features like solid waste management, stormwater management, recycling of used water, rainwater harvesting, water conservation and energy efficient lighting systems, among others.

The statue of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, which will be unveiled by the Prime Minister, is being installed in the same place where a hologram statue of Netaji was unveiled earlier this year on Parakram Diwas (January 23) by him. The statue, made of granite, is a fitting tribute to the immense contribution of Netaji to our freedom struggle, and would be a symbol of the country’s indebtedness to him. Crafted by Shri Arun Yogiraj, who was the main sculptor, the 28 feet tall statue has been carved from a monolithic granite stone and weighs 65 MT.

    भये प्रगट गोपाला दीनदयाला यशुमति के हितकारी। हर्षित महतारी सुर मुनि हारी मोहन मदन मुरारी ॥ कंसासुर जाना मन अनुमाना पूतना वेगी पठाई। तेहि हर्षित धाई मन मुस्काई गयी जहाँ यदुराई॥ तब जाय उठायो हृदय लगायो पयोधर मुख मे दीन्हा। तब कृष्ण कन्हाई मन मुस्काई प्राण तासु हर लीन्हा॥ जब इन्द्र रिसायो मेघ पठायो बस ताहि मुरारी। गौअन हितकारी सुर मुनि हारी नख पर गिरिवर धारी॥ कन्सासुर मारो अति हँकारो बत्सासुर संघारो। बक्कासुर आयो बहुत डरायो ताक़र बदन बिडारो॥ तेहि अतिथि न जानी प्रभु चक्रपाणि ताहिं दियो निज शोका। ब्रह्मा शिव आये अति सुख पाये मगन भये गये लोका॥ यह छन्द अनूपा है रस रूपा जो नर याको गावै। तेहि सम नहि कोई त्रिभुवन सोयी मन वांछित फल पावै॥ नंद यशोदा तप कियो, मोहन सो मन लाय। देखन चाहत बाल सुख, रहो कछुक दिन जाय॥ जेहि नक्षत्र मोहन भये, सो नक्षत्र बड़िआय। चार बधाई रीति सो, करत यशोदा माय॥

    दारू पियो तो जेल। हत्या करो तो बेल। बिहार में चल रहा सरकार का ये नया खेल। आये दिन हो रहे हत्या और बलात्कार। ऐसे में आम जनता का जीना हुआ मुहाल। लालू नितीश की दोस्ती से मचा ये बवाल। बिहार में अब क्या होगा जनता पूछ रही यही सवाल??
