India was once a global and spiritual leader up until the 17th century, making significant scientific contributions like introducing the concept of zero and developing an accurate 36-day calendar. However, while India has enjoyed over 60 years of independence, its current status shows insufficient human development, with many social issues. The document calls on young Indians, who make up over half the population, to serve as agents of change through leadership, excellence, awareness and development initiatives to help modernize India's infrastructure, agriculture, health, education, and more, in order to realize India's continued progress as envisioned by leaders like Dr. Abdul Kalam.
