Republic day

Good morning to all. My name is Ashvin yadav I read in class 7 th As we all know that we
have gathered here on the very special occasion of our nation called as Republic Day of
India. I would like to narrate a Republic Day speech in front of you. First of all I would like
to say a lot of thank to my class teacher as just because of her I have got such a
wonderful opportunity in my school to come on this stage and speak something about
my beloved country on its great occasion of Republic day.

India is a self-governing country since 15th of August 1947. India got independence from
the British rule on 15th of August in 1947 which we celebrate as Independence Day,
However, on 26th of January since 1950 we celebrate as Republic Day. The Constitution of
India came into force on 26th of January in 1950, so we celebrate this day as the Republic
Day every year. This year in 2016, we are celebrating 67th republic day of India.

Republic means the supreme power of the people living in the country and only public
has rights to elect their representatives as political leader to lead the country in right
direction. So, India is a Republic country where public elects its leaders as a president,
prime minister, etc. Our Great Indian freedom fighters have struggled a lot to the “Purna
Swaraj” in India. They did so that their future generations may live without struggle and
led country ahead.

The name of our great Indian leaders and freedom fighters are Mahatma Gandhi, Bhagat
Singh, Chandra Shekher Ajad, Lala Lajpath Rai, Sardar Ballabh Bhai Patel, Lal bahadur
Shastri, etc. They fought continuously against the British rule to make India a free
country. We can never forget their sacrifices towards our country. We should remember
them on such great occasions and salute them. It has become possible just because of
them that we can think from our own mind and live freely in our nation without anyone’s
force.

Our first Indian President was Dr. Rajendra Prasad who said that, “We find the whole of
this vast land brought together under the jurisdiction of one constitution and one union
which takes over responsibility for the welfare of more than 320 million men and women
inhabit it”. How shame to say that still we are fighting with crime, corruption and violence
(in the form of terrorist, rape, theft, riots, strikes, etc) in our country. Again, there is a
need to get together to save our country from such slavery as it is pulling our nation
back from going to its main stream of development and progress. We should be aware of
our social issues like Poverty, unemployment, illiteracy, global warming, inequality, etc
in order to solve them to go ahead.

Dr. Abdul Kalam has said that “If a country is to be corruption free and become a nation
of beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are three key societal members who can make a
difference. They are the Father, the Mother and the Teacher”. As a citizen of the country
we should think seriously about it and do all possible efforts to lead our nation.

Thanks, Jai Hind.
