Abstract

Deendayal Upadhyaya remains a towering figure in the ideological history of modern India. His contributions to the socio-political discourse through the philosophy of Integral Humanism provided an indigenous alternative to Western political and economic models. Rooted in Indian civilizational ethos, his ideas emphasized the importance of cultural identity, ethical governance, and self-sufficiency. As India continues to evolve, his thoughts and principles offer valuable insights into addressing contemporary challenges. His advocacy for a development model that harmonizes material progress with cultural and moral values remains relevant today. By revisiting and applying his ideas in governance and policy-making, India can continue to build a self-reliant and prosperous future while staying true to its heritage. Deendayal Upadhyaya was not just an intellectual or a political leader but a visionary who sought to integrate rich traditions of India with modern governance. His legacy continues to inspire generations of thinkers, leaders, and policymakers striving to create a Bharat that is both modern and deeply rooted in its cultural ethos.
