When they witness responsible behavior, it becomes part of their character.
The strength of every nation lies in its citizens. Just as every organ of the body has its own responsibility, every citizen also has certain duties toward society and the country. True patriotism is not confined to social media posts, flag-hoisting, or slogans on national days — it is reflected in our daily actions: when we respect fellow citizens, follow rules, protect public property, and maintain cleanliness. A respon- sible citizen embodies respect, honesty, punctuality, and empathy. When all of us uphold these values together, we build a disci- plined, just, and compassionate society Simply demanding rights is not enough—true patriotism is demonstrated by faithfully performing one’s duties.
A responsible citizen is one who contributes to society with honesty, disci- pline, and accountability. Following the law, protecting the environment, pro- moting education, paying taxes correctly, and respecting the rights of others— these are our fundamental civic duties.
“Kartavyani hi sadhunamabhyupaya?sukhasya cha.”
Means: Duties themselves are the true path to happiness for noble people.
A nation progresses only when its citizens think not merely of their own interests but place the welfare of society and the country above everything else.
Keeping public places clean, voting in elections, and maintaining harmony in society—these small steps become the strong foundation of nation-building.
“Narahsvakarmanae vamahan bhavati.”
Means: A person becomes great through his deeds. Therefore, every citizen must resolve to fulfill his duties with dedication. Only when each individual understands his responsibilities can Bharat become strong, prosperous, and an exemplary nation.
By following these duties, citizens can play a vital role in the nation’s development and contribute to building a strong, prosperous, and culturally vibrant Bharat.
Let us make these principles of good citizenship a part of our daily lives. By doing so, we not only improve our surroundings but also strengthen the moral and cultural fabric of our nation.
The dream of a clean, disciplined, and prosperous India will be realized only when every citizen becomes truly responsible — in thought, word, and action.

Mother and motherland are greater than heaven itself.
