"Digital Jyot" is a special tribute to the heroes of India's freedom struggle
Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged people on Saturday to take part in a "unique" endeavour that allows every tribute made online to add to the intensity of the illumination of the "Digital Jyot" at Central Park in New Delhi.
"A sky beam light has been installed at Central Park in Delhi. Every tribute paid will intensify the illumination of the Digital Jyot. Do take part in this unique endeavour and strengthen Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav," Mr. Modi said in a tweet.
"Digital Jyot" is a special tribute to the heroes of India's freedom struggle, the Prime Minister said, adding that it uses technology and enables people to share a heartfelt message of gratitude to the freedom fighters.
He also shared the link to the initiative — digitaltribute.in.

The Union Home Ministry has announced a major policy shift for ex-Agniveers, raising their reservation in Group C posts of the Central Armed Police Forces from 10% to 50%, starting with the Border Security Force. Ex-Agniveers are exempt from physical tests but must clear written exams, with a minimum qualification of Class 10 pass. The move aims to provide stable government jobs for Agniveers retiring in 2026, sparking debate on its impact on other candidates.
