On the occasion of Independence Day, from 2nd August to 15th August, all the people of the country can post tricolor in their social media profile pictures.
Since his inauguration in 2014, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been addressing the nation on the last Sunday of every month on the radio on the topic ‘Voice of Mind’ (Mann Ki Baat).
In that way today (July 31) the voice of the mind, Section 91 broadcast.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi said:
This time the voice of the mind is very good. The reason is that this Independence Day, India is about to complete 75 years of independence. We are witnesses to a phase of phenomenal-historical significance.
On the 31st day of July, i.e. today, all of us countrymen pay homage to martyr Uttam Singh. I offer my humble tributes to all the great revolutionaries who sacrificed their all for the nation.
It gives me great joy to see the elixir of freedom so magnificently shaped by a people. People from all walks of life and all walks of life participate in various programs related to this.
A similar program was launched in Meghalaya this month. The valiant warrior of Meghalaya, U. On the day of his death, people remember him. Droth Singh strongly opposed the British ploy to take control of the Khasi Hills and attack the culture of the people who lived there. Many artists presented beautiful works in this show. They gave life to history.
A few weeks earlier, in Karnataka, a different movement called Amrutha Bharathi Kannadarthi was launched. In this, grand programs were organized in 75 places of the state in conjunction with the Independence Day celebrations. In these, an attempt was made to remember the great freedom fighters of Karnataka and to highlight the literary achievements of the region.
A very interesting initiative was taken up in the same month of July, named – Freedom Train and Railway Station. The objective of this initiative is to make people aware of the contribution of Indian Railways in the freedom struggle.
The history of freedom struggle is intertwined with many railway stations in the country. You too will be amazed to know about these railway stations.
Como Railway Junction of Jharkhand is now officially known as Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Junction Como. Do you know why? It was at this railway station that Netaji Subhash, traveling in the Kalka Mail, succeeded in tricking the British authorities.
You all must have heard the name Kakodee railway station near Lucknow. Names of Theers like Ram Prasad Bismil and Ashfaqullah Khan are associated with this station. Here the brave revolutionaries showed the British their strength by looting the British treasury which was being transported by train.
If you happen to talk to people from Tamil Nadu, you can know about Vanchi Maniachi Railway Junction in Thoothukudi District. The station is named after the Tamil freedom fighter Vanchinathan. It was here that a 25-year-old young man, Wanji, punished the British Collector for his wrongdoing.
75 railway stations spread over 24 states across the country have been identified. These 75 stations are decorated very beautifully. A variety of programs are being organized in these. You too, spare some time and visit any railway station near you.
You will get to know in detail about the history of freedom struggle, which you don’t even know about. All I request from the school students in the neighborhood and pray to the teachers is that you take the little children from your school and go to the railway station, tell the whole incident to those children and make them understand.
My dear fellow citizens, a special movement called Moovannakkodi is being organized from 13th to 15th of August, in accordance with the festival of independence. By participating in this movement, from 13th to 15th August, you too fly the tricolor at your homes, or put it up in your home.
The tricolor flag unites us and inspires us to contribute to the cause of the nation. I have one more request from you; That means from 2nd August to 15th August, you all can post tricolor on your social media profile photos.
Do you know something? The 2nd of August has a connection with our tricolor flag. It was on this day that Bingale Venkaiah, who designed our national flag, was born. I offer him my respectful tributes.
While talking about our national flag, we also remember the great revolutionary Madame Cama. His contribution in giving shape to the tricolor flag was very great.
Friends, the biggest message of all these preparations going on in the elixir of freedom is that we as citizens must fulfill our duties with all our might. Only then can we fulfill the dreams of countless freedom fighters. They can build their dream Bharat. So this Amrit period of our next 25 years is like a duty period for every citizen. Our soldiers, who freed the nation, have left a responsibility for all of us. We must fulfill it completely.
This was said by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
