Long years ago we made a tryst with destiny, and now the time comes when we will redeem our pledge, not wholly or in full measure, but very substantially. At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom. A moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step out from the old to the new, when an age ends and when the soul of a nation, long suppressed, finds utterance .... We end today a period of ill fortune, and India discovers herself again."
Jawaharlal Nehru (Speech on Indian Independence Day, 1947).
On 15 August 1947, India attained freedom from the British Rule. Every year, August 15 is celebrated as the Independence Day in India. And this year also India is going to celebrate its 62th Independence day.
The Independence Day of any country is a moment of pride and glory. On this special occasion, rich tributes are paid to the freedom fighters who sacrificed their lives and fought to free their motherland from the clutches of the oppressors - British who ruled the country
The pioneers of the freedom movement were Mangal Pandey, Tantia Tope, Rani of Jhansi and the great Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi who introduced non-violent ways of fighting the enemy. Other notable freedom fighters of India are Annie Besant, Lala Lajpat Rai, Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Bhagat Singh, Bipin Chandra Pal, Sukhdev, Gopal Krishna Gokhale, Chandrashekhar Azad, Sarojini Naidu, Dadabhai Naoroji, Sucheta Kriplani and Chakravarti Rajagopalachari.(kindly add names to this list...if you have any)
Even after that many times intruders tried to capture some parts of India but failed. Salute to our proud soldiers for that. So every one do stand up once and salute our heroes for the freedom we enjoy every day. Thanks to all of the three forces, army ,navy and air force.
A SPECIAL SALUTE TO the martyr of 62,65,73 and Kargil.
I wish a very Happy Independence Day to all and feel proud to be an Indian.
WE RECAPTURED OUR LAST HILL FROM PAKISTAN, BUT WE LOST OUR MOST VALUABLE, GREAT WARRIORS, BRAVE BROTHERS.
TODAY IT’S TIME TO REMEMBER THEM
