Happy Independence Day!




Lets distribute Rakhi among all the security forces stationed nearby.


Technically though, we have two independence days.

January 26th, when we declared independence. Now, this is celebrated as Republic Day.
August 15th, when the British Empire granted us independence.
Technically we were granted a Dominion status, not Independence.

Swatantrata Diwas ki subhkamnaye.

Someone taught me an apt meaning of this day : Swa(self) + Tantrata(control/discipline).

So , this day one practise self discipline and add it as a virtue in ones life.

PM speaks:

India is not 70 years old, but it is a journey of 70 years post-colonial rule. After Independence, we made efforts to take the country forward under a new system. Sardar Vallbhai Patel unified the country and now it is our duty to make this country as the best nation. We have to make continuous efforts to realise our dream to make India “Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat”.

India may be 70 yrs old; Bhaarat certainly isn't!
