Hon’ble Vice Chancellor, Hon’ble Principal, Fellow Colleagues and My Dear Students!
As you all know that today we have organized this event to commemorate the victory and sacrifice of our freedom fighters, which fought during the struggle for Independence. And I, as the senior faculty member of our XYZ institution, have been chosen by our respected Principal to deliver a speech on patriotism. On behalf of my entire staff and students of this institution, I want to extend special thanks to our hon’ble Vice Chancellor for taking out her precious time and coming here to grace the occasion through her presence.
As I mentioned earlier that we are here to remember our country’s great freedom fighters like Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, Shaheed Bhagat Singh, Chandrasekhar Azad, Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Subhash Chandra Bose, Jawaharlal Nehru, Dr. Rajendra Prasad, and many others. Their contribution towards attainment of the independence was immense and cannot be simply summed up in words. However, one thing that requires special mention and which we all should imbibe from them is their great patriotic fervour. When on the mere thought of bondage or slavery of British Raj and independence struggle, a shudder comes running through our whole body, imagine they all have literally lived it and fought against it. The trauma and trouble that Britishers inflicted on them is difficult to explicate.
There is one thing in common in all of them that kept them united till their last breath during the freedom struggle was patriotism and sheer love for their motherland. They firmly believed in the chant called “Mera Bharat Mahan”. So now, if I were to ask you what Patriotism is, then how many of you are willing to answer? May be all! Apparently, it may sound like an easy question for you, but trust me it has various ramifications.
Remember that it’s good to love your country and its people, but that doesn’t give you the right to detest any particular thought or ideology. So it’s important to not let your patriotic zeal transgress that thin line which can border you towards fanaticism or extremism. Remember that the very foundation of our country is founded on the principles of tolerance and compassion.
Patriotism has no room for hatred or ill-feeling. When it’s patriotism that inspired our freedom fighters to sacrifice their lives for the love of their country and its people, then we can at least spread the message of love and peace everywhere across the globe. Yet another way to show love for our country is by working towards its growth and development and taking effective measures to eradicate poverty, illiteracy, child labour, violence against women and other social evils from our society and making our country a better place to live in.
Needless to say, patriotism is one of the finest qualities found in men and it’s an exhilarating feeling. And a person will be patriotic in true sense of the term when he/she will own the responsibility of his/her country and relentlessly work towards its holistic growth. So, think beyond yourself and your family. Cultivate national interest and spread the message of international brotherhood everywhere.
Before I leave the stage, let’s say together very loud and clear “Bharat Mata ki Jai”!
Thank you!
