Union Minister Anurag Thakur said Saturday that India’s lunar exploration mission Chandrayaan-3 was not just the first time that India landed on the south pole of the Moon, but also the first time the nation was put first rather than a family.

Thakur was speaking at the book launch of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas’, a collection of select speeches of PM Modi, in Bhopal. He said that Prime Minister Modi “pulled the country out of the clutches of appeasement… and put it on the course of development.”

“We are the first country in the world to land a spacecraft on the Moon’s south pole. Earlier when such efforts were taken, then a family’s name would be taken, today the nation’s name has gone forward. This is a big change. We have left politics of appeasement and progressed with sabka saath, sabka vikas… the New Education Policy (NEP), came under the Modi government, where focus was on imparting education in your mother tongue,” Thakur, the minister for information and broadcasting and youth affairs and sports said.

Thakur said what could not be achieved in 60 years has been achieved by the Modi government in 8 years.
