Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu emphatically stated that the goal is to make India the world’s leading nation by 2047, which will be achieved by integrating the humanitarian values offered by Sri Sathya Sai Baba with modern technology. Speaking as the Chief Guest at the 44th Convocation of Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning in Puttaparthi, he expressed his honor in participating in the graduation ceremony of an institution focused on values-based education and character building.
The Chief Minister urged the graduates to carry forward the ‘Sai Siddhanta’ (Sai principles) as a movement, emphasizing that the values of truth, compassion, and honesty are paramount to social service. He highlighted India’s rapid progress, noting that the country has risen from the 10th to the 4th largest economy under PM Narendra Modi’s leadership. CM Naidu affirmed that India’s ascent to the Number 1 global position by 2047 will be fueled by focusing on future technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI), Data Centers, Quantum computing, Aerospace, and Semiconductors.
Detailing his development plans for Andhra Pradesh, CM Naidu announced that all future technologies available in the country are being brought to the state. He mentioned that the recent CII summit attracted investments worth ₹13.25 lakh crore, projected to create 16 lakh jobs. Furthermore, Google is set to establish a Data Center in the state with a $15 billion investment. He concluded by calling upon the youth—the future leaders—to safeguard the nation, uphold values, and strive to build a Healthy, Wealthy, and Happy Society inspired by Sai Baba’s vision.
