Referring to the latest International Monetary Fund (IMF) report, Niglar said that the IMF has revised India&#8217;s GDP growth forecast upward to 6.4% for both FY-2026 and FY-2027, citing &#8220;a more favourable external environment compared to its April forecast.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Emphasising India&#8217;s growing strength across defence, agriculture, and the economy, Niglar said that even the recently imposed 50% tariff by the US president &#8220;will not affect India&#8217;s growth trajectory.&#8221; He added that, after many years of independence from British rule, India&#8217;s rise through Atmanirbhar Bharat is a testament to its resilience and progress.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As part of the Independence Day celebrations, the party will organise the Har Ghar Tiranga campaign to encourage every citizen to hoist the national flag. From 11-14 August, BJP units across India will conduct cleanliness drives at freedom struggle memorials, war memorials, and other historically significant sites of the independence movement.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A Tiranga Yatra bike rally will also be held to promote the Har Ghar Tiranga campaign.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ITANAGAR, 10 Aug: The state Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday launched its weeklong 79th Independence Day celebrations with an &#8216;Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam&#8217; tree plantation programme at the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) Headquarters here.
