“At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom…”

These words by India’s first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, will forever remain etched in our history. After a century of struggle and being ruled by the British – India was claiming the freedom we always deserved. Men, women and children rejoiced to call this land their own for the first time. And today, we must ask: Are we respecting the struggle of our forefathers and mothers? Are we valuing this freedom, and understanding that we, as citizens, have a responsibility towards the nation too? I don’t want to speak about the past today, I want to speak about the future. I want to speak about 4 responsibilities that will help us value this Independence.
What does ‘doing’ mean in this sense? Simply put, it’s our responsibility towards taking action for things that matter – of doing something for change. Voting in every election – whether it be a General election or a local election. Taking charge of the cleanliness of our surroundings – let’s remember – Swachh Bharat isn’t just the government’s dream. Doing good for society – helping people out, and respecting the struggle of generations past.
With freedom, comes a big responsibility to hold those in power accountable. If we see something wrong happening around us, it is our responsibility to speak up and urge for action. A citizen’s voice is the most powerful voice – it can build and break policies, it can build and break governments. Let’s use it to shape our furture
Let us remember that there are many communities in India who still don’t enjoy freedom, even after Independence. If you are someone who enjoys rights irrespective of your gender identity, caste, education or economic status, it’s time to recognise your privilege and be an ally in the larger fight for equal rights.
We can’t be responsible citizens without knowing about what’s happening around us. It’s a must to be involved in shaping our country’s democracy, and keeping ourselves informed of our rights, responsibilities and the news that affects us and thousands around us.

These 4 are just the tip of our duties as a citizen. Let’s ensure that not just Independence Day, but every day as an Indian citizen reminds us of what it’ll take to build a strong, peaceful and active community of citizens who respect their freedom and understand their responsibilities.

And with that – Azaadi Divas Mubarak Ho!

hooe this will help

Independence Day in India is the most important day for every Indian citizen as our country got freedom from the British rule. We celebrate this day every year on 15th of August from 1947. Our country is counted as the world’s largest democracy all over the world. India become an independent country on 15thof August in 1947 after sacrifices of thousands of freedom fighters (such as Mahatma Gandhi, Bhagat Singh, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Dr. Rajendra Prasad, Moulana Abul Kalam Azad, Sukhdev, Gopal Krishna Gokhale, Lala Lajpat Rai, Lokmanya Balgangadhar Tilak, Chandra Shekhar Azad, etc) who worked hard to get independence from the British rule.

Each and every Indian celebrate his/her freedom in their own way such as decorating their places of celebration, raising National Flag, march past, watching favourite movies, dancing in the streets, singing National Anthem or patriotic songs or participating in many social activities organized at public places. Independence Day is celebrated by the government of India every year when the current Prime Minister of India raises out tricolour national flag at the Red Fort in Delhi followed by Indian army parade, march past, National Anthem recitation, speech and other cultural activities.

Independence Day in India is celebrated with the National Flag salute by the 21 guns firing. Similarly Independence Day celebration takes place in every states of the country where Governor and the Chief Minister of the states become main guests. Some people get prepared in the early morning and wait for the speech of the Indian Prime Minister at TV. On 15th of August people get inspired with the history of India’s independence and do some social activities like that and watch movies based on the patriotic themes.

The great non-violence movement of the Mahatma Gandhi, Bapu, helps a lot to our freedom fighters to get freedom from the British rule after 200 long years of struggle. The hard struggle for Independence of India has worked as a huge moving force for every Indian which bind them together at one place whether they belong to different castes, classes, cultures to ritual beliefs to fight them from British rule for their rights. Even women (Aruna Asaf Ali, Vijay Laxmi Pandit, Sarojine Naidu, Kasturba Gandhi, Kamala Nehru, Annie Besant, etc) came out from their houses and played their great role in getting freedom.

Hope it helps you. ;-)
