TOP QUOTES FROM INDEPENDENCE DAY BY PRIME MINISTER
 The citizens are thankful to Mahatma Gandhi, Netaji Subhash

Chandra Bose, Babasaheb Ambedkar and Veer Savarkar among the
many who gave their lives to attain Independence. This nation is
thankful to Mangal Pandey, Tatya Tope, Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev,
Rajguru, Chandrashekhar Azad, Ashfaqulla Khan, Ram Prasad
Bismil and our innumerable revolutionaries who shook the foundation
of the British Rule.
 When we speak of the freedom struggle, we can’t forget the tribal

community. Bhagwan Birsa Munda, Sidhu-Kanhu, Alluri Sitarama
Raju, Govind Guru — there are innumerable names who became the
voice of the freedom struggle and inspired the tribal community to live
and die for the country.
 India is the mother of democracy. India has seen a lot of ups and
downs in the last 75 years. There have been sorrows as well as
achievements in these years. We faced natural calamities, wars and
other problems. But unity in diversity became our guiding power.
 In 2014, the citizens of the country gave me the responsibility to lead

the country. I am the first person born after Independence who
received the opportunity to address the nation from this Red Fort. The
‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign is an example of the entire nation
coming together to celebrate the spirit of our glorious country.
 In the coming years, we have to focus on Panchpran (five promises)

— First, to move forward with bigger resolves and a resolve of
developed India; second, erase all traces of servitude; third, be proud
of our legacy; fourth, focus on our strength of unity; and fifth, fulfil the
duties of citizens with honesty, which should be done by the Prime
Minister and Chief Ministers as well.
 After 75 years, we have heard the proud sound of a Made-in-India
weapon during the Independence Day gun salute. I salute the armed
forces for this feat. I also salute the children who are saying no to
imported toys. When a 5-year-old says no videshi, Aatma Nirbhar
Bharat runs through his veins.
 We always remember Lal Bahadur Shastri ji’s slogan of “Jai Jawan,

Jai Kisan”. Later, A B Vajpayee added “Jai Vigyaan” to this slogan.
Now, we need add “Jai Anusandhan” (research and innovation). Jai
Jawan, Jai Kisan, Jai Vigyaan aur Jai Anusandhan.
 Corruption, nepotism two main challenges. Until and unless people

have the mentality of penalizing the corrupt, the nation cannot
progress at the optimum pace. Another evil we need to come
together against is nepotism. We need to give opportunities to those
who are talented and will work towards the progress of the nation
IMPORTANT THINGS OUTLINED
