Happy 72nd INDEPENDENCE DAY

Today is 15th August, it is one of the most important days for Indian people. We are celebrating our 72nd independence day today. On 15th August 1947, we got freedom from British rule. They ruled over India for more than 200 years, during which they divided us and rules upon us.

From Mangal Pandey, Lokmanya Tilak, Bhagat Singh, Mahatma Gandhi to Netaji Bose and thousand of freedom fighter sacrificed there lives for the freedom of India. Most of them were not live when we got the independence.

It’s more than 70 years now, we are a free country, we have own government and freedom to do anything under the sun. But still, we are struggling with poverty, corruption, terrorism, child trafficking, rapes, riots, caste discrimination, gender inequality and what not.

70 years back we had an excuse that foreign powers rule us so we can’t do anything, later we blamed government and politics for slow growth and we keep blaming them today also.

But we never look inward. We forgot that we also have a role to play. We as students should garner as much knowledge as possible and make a great career. If we all do what we supposed to do even that will help the nation. If we decided not to involve in malpractices and corruption a lot of big problems in India will disappear.

We, children, have a great power in hand. forget the older generation, let’s not crib about them, let us hop on driver’s seat and start this journey.

We all can do it, only we can do it. If our generation ignores this opportunity now, we will never be able to recover from this loss. So, friends come out of the self-centered cocoon and think of all, do for all…

Say with me Bharat Mata ki Jay, Bharat Mata ki Jay, Bharat Mata ki Jay, … Jai Hind.

In last just have a look at the speech by our PM Narendra Modi
