The song, Vande Mataram, composed in Sanskrit by Bankimchandra Chatterji, was a source of inspiration to the people in their struggle for freedom. It has an equal status with Jana-gana-mana.

Our Sincere Obeisance Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Veer Surendra Sai Our Sincere Obeisance Buxi Jagabandhu Chakhi Khuntia Our Sincere Obeisance Swami Vivekananda Vyasakabi Fakir Mohan Senapati Message of Dr. S.C. Jamir Hon'ble Governor of Odisha On the Occasion of Republic Day - 2015 Dear Sisters and Brothers, On this 66th anniversary of our Great Republic, I extend my heartiest greetings to all of you and wish all round progress and prosperity in the coming days. On this historic moment, we owe our sincere and heartfelt gratitude to the Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi and the founding fathers of our Constitution whose relentless struggle and sacrifices paved the way for this greatest historic accomplishment of our times. Sixty five years ago, the founding fathers gave us a constitution which envisioned a just society with welfare of the weaker sections and guaranting social and economic justice for all. The task ahead was challenging. But we have been forging ahead with poise to attain this goal. In the global perspective, India is at present emerging as one of the biggest democratic pathfinders for other countries. The patriotic spirit and sacrifice of the highest order of our Freedom fighters under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi has left ineffaceable impressions in the mind of our people. I salute and offer my profound homage to the valiant fighters and the martyrs of the Indian freedom struggle. We need to rededicate ourselves to safeguard and uphold the dignity of our Nation, our Constitution and its ideals & values. Republic Day celebrations carry great significance in our National life. Our culture and heritage have forever spread the message of peace, harmony and universal brotherhood. We must strive hard to attain prosperity through discipline, dedication and hard work. This auspicious occasion inspires us to introspect on our past achievements and makes us aware of the tasks ahead that are to be undertaken to strengthen our unity and integrity. We reiterate our dedication in our efforts to make Odisha one of the most developed states in the country. The State has adopted a very pragmatic development approach to achieve sustainable economic growth of key and important sectors and has invested significant public resources to achieve those through a number of programmes. An agriculturally prosperous Odisha with adequate food security coverage for all has all along been the single most important objective that the Government has been striving hard to achieve. Odisha is the second State in the entire country to have introduced a separate budget for agriculture. Besides this, despite the damages caused by Phailin during the last year, the State has bagged the coveted Krishi Karman Award thrice during the last four years for agricultural productivity. This shows the resilience of our farmers and the system put in place by the State Government. All these amply demonstrate the commitment of Odisha Government to the issues of farmers and food security. To enhance agricultural productivity, all out efforts are being made to create additional irrigation potential to the tune of ten lakh hectares within the next five years. To achieve this objective, a sum of Rs.5000 crores is being proposed to be spent each year for the next five years on Major, Medium, Small irrigation Projects, Deep Borewells, Mega Lift Irrigation Projects, restoration of the defunct L.I. Points and energisation of the borewells and Lift irrigation points. Easy access to quality seeds, fertilisers, pesticides and farm mechanisation along with agricultural credit at the lowest percentage of interest are the other key elements in this endeavour. To support agricultural marketing, the Government is committed to create a network of storage facilities including cold storage chains, threshing floors, drying yards and mandis with sound connectivity with marketing avenues and access to a SMS based information flow Network. Equitable distribution of food grains to all with focus on the tribals, slum dwellers and other vulnerable sections of the society are being ensured by the State Government through the proposed new holistic Odisha Food Security Act. Indicators reflecting the socio economic conditions of a family will be introduced to make the coverage inclusive and holistic. Providing shelter security to the rural poor is another priority sector for the State. Through its own flagship scheme “Biju Pucca Ghar Yojana”, the State Government proposes to convert all Kucha houses in the rural areas of the State into Pucca houses. Apart from this, the State Government has announced a Shelter Security Mission to be launched soon to ensure housing for the homestead-less urban and rural poor having no roof over their head. The State is committed towards both social and economic empowerment of women. To empower girls and women, Odisha State Policy for Girls and Women has been framed with the provisions of inheritance, equal land rights, free homestead land of 4 decimals to homestead-less women of lower
