Ahead of Diwali 2025, Prime Minister Narendra Modi called on all Indians to honor the festival by consciously choosing and promoting Indian-made products. Reinforcing the “Vocal for Local” and Atmanirbhar Bharat initiatives, Modi encouraged people to celebrate the creativity and hard work of 140 crore Indians by buying Swadeshi goods and sharing their purchases on social media.

With the festive season of Diwali approaching, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has doubled down on the importance of supporting India-made products, encapsulated in his resonant call, “Garv Se Kaho Yeh Swadeshi Hai” (Say proudly, this is Swadeshi). Through a heartfelt post on the social media platform X, Modi appealed to the citizens to celebrate this Diwali by honoring the creativity, innovation, and hard work of the nation’s 140 crore people.

Modi’s message is a powerful boost to the ongoing “Vocal for Local” campaign, which aims to empower small businesses, local artisans, weavers, and entrepreneurs by encouraging everyone to prioritize domestically produced goods. This movement is a vital pillar of Atmanirbhar Bharat (self-reliant India), focusing on strengthening the country’s economy by reducing dependence on imports and generating employment through indigenous manufacturing.
