Independence Day : Dear Principal, esteemed teachers, dear parents, and my fellow students,
Good morning to you all!
Today, we are gathered here to celebrate an important milestone in our country’s history – Independence Day. On this day, August 15, 1947, India woke up to life and freedom. It is a day of pride, remembrance and gratitude for every Indian.
The journey to freedom was long and arduous. It is marked by the tireless efforts, sacrifices and perseverance of our great freedom fighters.
Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, Subhash Chandra Bose, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and countless other leaders dedicated their lives for the freedom of our country. They faced unimaginable hardships and fought bravely against the colonial regime, driven by their unwavering love for the motherland.
Today, as we stand here, we must remember that our freedom is not merely a gift from the heroes of our past; It’s a responsibility. The freedom we enjoy today was earned with the sweat, blood and tears of those who believed in a free and prosperous India. It is our duty to uphold his legacy by positively contributing to the growth and development of our nation.
Independence Day is not just a day to celebrate our freedom, but also to reflect on our achievements and the way forward. India has made remarkable progress since 1947. We have advanced in science and technology, education, healthcare and various other fields. Our democracy is strong and we stand as a symbol of hope and peace in the world.
However, the journey does not end there. As students, we have a critical role to play in shaping the future of our nation. Our education, our values and our dedication will determine the direction of India’s destiny. We must strive to be responsible citizens, committed to the ideals of equality, justice and freedom for all.
Let us also remember that our strength lies in our unity. India is a country of diversity, home to many cultures, languages and religions. Our unity in diversity is what makes us unique and strong. Let us embrace this diversity and work together for a harmonious and inclusive society.
As we celebrate this Independence Day, let us resolve to contribute to the development of the country with sincerity, hard work and dedication. Let us take inspiration from our freedom fighters and work towards making India a global leader – a nation that is prosperous, inclusive and just.
Finally, let us bow our heads in gratitude to those who gave us the gift of freedom. Let us honor their sacrifice by being responsible citizens and working towards a brighter future for our beloved nation.
Jai Hind!
देशभक्ति की राह में, हमने बहुत कुछ पाया,
आजादी का ये दिन, हर दिल में समाया।
हमारे तिरंगे का हर रंग, कहता है ये कहानी,
एकता और भाईचारे की है, ये पावन निशानी।
तिरंगे की शान में, लहराए हर दिल,
देशभक्ति की लौ में, जलाए हर दिल।
वीर सपूतों की कुर्बानी, कभी न भूले हम,
हर पल देश के लिए, जिए हर दिल।
लहू से सींचा है वीरों ने,
यह धरती है पावन।
मिट्टी की सौगंध खाते हैं,
रखेंगे इसका मान।
