Answer:
On this eve of Independence Day, I am overwhelmed to present my thoughts in front of everyone. I am thankful that I got the opportunity for expressing the views for mother, India. Independence Day is one of the most memorable days in history. It was the day when Indian got liberated. Britishers were ruling India for long two hundred years. The citizens of India faced a lot of problem under their rule.
Indians were treated like slaves; they were deprived of any happiness & fundamental rights in their own country. Those days were days of hardship & depression for the people of India. The march towards independence started in 1857 with the Indian Independence movement. Indian mutiny act was the first revolt against Britishers by soldiers. It is the first time leaders acted against the Britishers with unity. The response against the Britishers rises with the Indian mass movement in 1885.
It was followed by the Non-Cooperation movement by Mahatma Gandhi in 1920. It led to several other events which cannot be erased from the history like Jallianwala Bagh Massacre. Although the Non-Cooperation movement gained support after the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre has to be withdrawn. The Indian leaders & citizens did not stop there; they kept trying in every possible way to fight against these foreigners.
In 1929 again the Civil Mass disobedience movement was launched which was to complete disobedience towards orders of British rule. To suppress this movement, there were violent acts & several Indians were killed mercilessly by the Britisher officials. In 1942 Quit India movement was launched that called for massive support to move British out of India.
Many freedom fighters like Bhagat Singh, Tantia Tope, Lal Bahadur Shastri, Subhash Chandra Bose, Nana Saheb with many other leaders were part of this struggle, who fought for their own country to bring back its glory. Finally, in 1947 India got independence on the 15th of August. It is a historic day which none of us can forget. On this day we pay tribute to all those freedom fighters who have gifted us the India we are living in today.
It is the most significant day in Indian history as it marks the sacrifice, bravery, hardship & patriotism shown by the freedom fighters. We celebrate this national day with great enthusiasm & patriotism flaunting our national flag & reciting our National Anthem. Every official building, schools, university hoists the National flag on this occasion.
There are numerous events organized on this day like dance, song, music, movie, play etc. to express our love for our country. All of us must carry forward the enthusiasm throughout the year with the notion to serve our motherland. It is our duty to do every possible thing which will give birth to a better India because youths are the best assets of a country.
Let us join our hands to make India the best nationality in the world. Let us celebrate the freedom & celebrate independence by paying back to our country. A famous quote says that no other sacrifice can be higher than the sacrifice for your motherland. With this, I would like to end my speech.

Good Morning Everyone!
Every year on 15 August, Independence Day is celebrated as a national holiday in India when people remember the long phase of our nation's independence from British rule. On August 15, 1947, India gained independence after a series of movements in which many freedom fighters sacrificed their lives. After independence, on 15 August 1947, Jawaharlal Nehru became the first Indian Prime Minister to raise the National Flag at the Red Fort near Delhi's Lahore Gate. By unfurling the National Flag and singing the National Anthem, students, teachers, parents and other individuals come together to celebrate Independence Day. The Indian prime minister in the national capital New Delhi, at Red Fort, also hosts our National Flag. After that, the salute is given by firing 21 guns and a helicopter showers tricolour flowers on the flag. The colours in our flag represent different things; saffron signifies courage and sacrifice, white signifies peace and truth, green signifies faith and chivalry. In the centre of our flag, there is an Ashok chakra that contains 24 evenly distributed spikes. We recall the great sacrifices of Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, Raj Guru, Gandhiji and other daring freedom fighters on this special day for their unforgettable contribution to India's independence.
Jai Hind!
