Prime Minister Modi Deliver 80th Independence Day Speech
My dear fellow citizens,
Today, we are celebrating the 80th Independence Day. Today, every heartbeat resonates with the chant of Vande Mataram. Today, there is “Har Ghar Tiranga Hai, Har Man Tiranga Hai” (the Tricolour in every home, the Tricolour in every heart) and the country is moving forward with enthusiasm and renewed energy, carrying new resolutions with it. My best wishes to all of you on Independence Day. Today, the nation remembers with reverence those great sons and daughters who made the ultimate sacrifices for the freedom of our country. Through their perseverance, sacrifice, and dedication, they devoted their entire lives to the single goal of achieving independence. Today, I respectfully salute revered Bapu, all the freedom fighters, and the great revolutionaries who inspired this glorious tradition of sacrifice. For everyone present at this ceremony today, this is also a historic moment. For the first time since independence, Vande Mataram is echoing from the Red Fort on August 15. And as we celebrate 150 years of Vande Mataram today, what could be a more wonderful occasion than this
