Droupadi Murmu, India's youngest President at the age 64 has been elected as the 15th President of India. She belongs to a tribal society in a small village in Odisha, and also says that it was her dream to get an elementary education. It was her determination that remained strong to make it to college in her life. She said that elementary education especially for girls would be her central focus as she understood the value of education in her life more than anyone else.
Earlier in her life, she was served as a teacher, ward councilor, the governor of Odisha before becoming the President of India. She conveyed a powerful message saying that even the poor in India can dream and make it come true.
The President wants the people to focus more on sustainable development. As she was born in a tribal family, she says her family made her realise how important the forest and water bodies are in her life. Even I strongly to what she have said and this was what struck me the most. We might have noticed the development of our country in many areas, but these developments should not be appreciated if there is a negative impact towards the nature. To some extend, yes we can still manage to go ahead. The business these days do not focus on sustainable development, not of the organisation but to the environment.
