At the ceremony in Mayur Vihar, he remarked, "We have to promise to build such a system where free good education, world-class healthcare, and 100% employment become fundamental rights of the citizenry."

Digital Desk: Arvind Kejriwal, the Chief Minister of Delhi, argued on Tuesday for the inclusion of employment, world-class healthcare, and free education as fundamental rights, claiming that providing these rights is the responsibility of an accountable government rather than a gift. Kejriwal said that numerous nations that gained independence after India have "surpassed us" as he raised the 500th high-mast tricolour in the nation's capital.

Kejriwal criticized Congress and the BJP, stating one party used its authority by spending taxpayer money on family members while the other did so on "friends," and that both must be eradicated. He also stated that "Pariwarwaad" (dynastic politics) and "Dostwaad" (favouring friends) must be eliminated.

We must all make a commitment to elevating India to the top spot in the globe on this, our nation's 75th Independence Day. Several of these countries gained independence after us but have now outgrown us in terms of growth, despite all of our people's potential and labour.

Since Prime Minister Modi warned against the "revadi culture" of distributing gifts to get votes and dubbed it "extremely harmful" for the growth of the nation while speaking at an event last month, the Aam Aadmi Party has defended the release of freebies before elections.

Kejriwal criticized the BJP and the Congress, saying "We need to banish "Pariwarwaad" and "Dostwaad" and support "Bharatwaad."

The head of state remarked, "One party abused its position of authority by lavishing public funds on family members, while another party did the same with acquaintances.

"Public money should not be spent on friends and family; public money is intended to create jobs, provide free healthcare, and provide free education."

Before starting his speech, the chief minister unfurled the 166-foot-high flag to the sounds of the Homeguard Band and chanted "Bharat Mata ki Jai," "Inquilab Zindabad," and "Vande Mataram."

"This project aims to elicit and cultivate Desh bhakti in every citizen on a daily basis. I'm sure that seeing the Tiranga in all of its splendor makes everyone's chest expand with pride. The Tiranga also serves as a constant reminder of all the hardships endured by our ancestors in order to provide the Tiranga with a clear sky in which to fly.

It serves as a constant reminder of the blood poured by our men to preserve the open sky in which it sails. I'm positive that this Tiranga will deter anyone from leaving their home, even if they have bad intentions in mind. All throughout Delhi, there are 500 of these Tirangas, he claimed.

He claimed that the issue facing the nation was a lack of political willingness and intent rather than a lack of potential, effort, or intelligence.

Because of this, each of us needs to take responsibility for making India the world's strongest and most powerful country. But how will this nation develop?

Every child in the nation must receive the best education possible, he stressed, regardless of their family's financial situation.

The chief minister emphasized the need of offering every resident of the nation the greatest healthcare available as well as employment opportunities for young people, claiming that until these basic needs are met, the nation cannot advance.

"However, it bothers me to hear people disparage this school of thought by asserting that free education must be discontinued. I want to say that providing free, high-quality public health care or education is not a gift. A government that is a responsible must, " he added.

The PWD engineers, labourers, and contractors "who made this audacious ambition a reality," according to Manish Sisodia, Kejriwal's deputy.

"As this flag soars to the heavens, I would like to state that the government is working around the clock and carrying out such tasks that are enhancing the tricolor's majesty, dignity, and honour. This is all thanks to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. In order to uphold the honour of tricolour, we seek to provide world-class schools, hospitals, electric bills that are zero, public transportation, free care for accident victims, and free water supplies. The government is making every effort to raise the national flag's honour, he continued.
