Our Mission

Responsible Citizenry

Our mission is to create good responsible citizenry that can power India towards becoming a valued nation globally.

  • We firmly believe that citizens are the foundation of nation-building. Citizens, as owners of this nation, must discharge their duties to build, sustain and lead India towards excellence.
  • A citizen must be fully committed to the nation and, besides acquiring the necessary skills and maintaining good health, should understand and uphold the guiding principles enshrined in Article 51A of the Constitution, introduced through the 42nd Amendment in 1976. This Article outlines the Fundamental Duties of every citizen and reminds us that citizenship involves responsibilities in addition to rights.

Fundamental Duties

We work to inspire and enable every citizen—especially the youth—to uphold and practise the values enshrined in Article 51A, which are considered fundamental civic duties and moral obligations intended to guide behaviour, protect the environment and preserve national integrity.

Through publications, programs, workshops and community outreach, we promote responsible citizenship and nation-building.

Our activities include education on Fundamental Duties, civic responsibilities, rejection of violence, healthy living, environmental care and community participation. Please visit our Programs page for more details.

Our activities are centred around a Citizen's Pledge that commits every participant to place the Nation First.

Our Vision

The health of a democracy depends primarily on the quality of its people. Cultivating good citizenry therefore becomes the cornerstone of a healthy and vibrant nation that takes pride in its democratic processes and systems. The Build India Group has been at the forefront of a movement to connect with students and youth to foster a “Nation First” approach as they are encouraged to think what they can do for the country rather than what the country can give them.

To expect citizens to perform well for the country, their health is also equally important. It is because “citizen’s health is country’s wealth”. This has also been part of our campaign.
