70 Years of Indian Independence - A long Journey ahead.

                            Seventy years ago, on this day the citizens of this country came together to celebrate the Independence from colonial rule. Yet there are many challenges infront of them to make independent India a global platform which can compete with the best in every field. They laid a platform for our country with the best constitution and other amenities. They trusted us, our skills in making our country better and better. In these 70 years we as a nation had achieved many goals, we had put out country in a position which seemed impossible 70 years before. India's freedom struggle with non violence is a global lesson to maintain peace in the world. Our leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, APJ Abdul Kalam has become global icons for their respective deeds. Today countries like America, China, Russia gives importance to maintain friendly relations with us knowing our potential and strength. Our Army, Navy, Airforce are regarded as one of the best security forces. Our national space organization ISRO stunned the whole world with the missions it had taken making India a global competitor in Space science and Technology. The Maangalyan mission and the cost of the mission had made us unique. Organizations like DRDO, HAL are symbols of India's capability in sector of manufacturing. The recent fighter jet ' Tejas ' made the world look at our capabilities. The Indian brands like TATA made a global impact and registered its name in the top 100 most valued brands in the world. India reached a position to take in global contracts in various fields strengthening its ties with other countries across various fields. We have succeeded in establishing world class educational and research institutions such as IISC etc. We had dominated the world in the production of Milk. We listed our name in the top producers of steel etc. In the recent past we also gave attention on renewable energy resources and nuclear energy. To add to this we have many achievements in various fields. Still there are challenges left infront of us to make our country better. We need to have a broader mindset of Independence. We need to understand the idea of democracy. We need to curb caste based and religious based politics. We need politicians who are capable of changing the system. We need knowledge centered education system where every child has a right to pursue knowledge in a field he likes to. We need youth who can understand the idea of India. We need youth who are ready to serve the country. We need to set a platform where our citizens don't depend on other countries to settle in life. We need Independent India where my farmer friends doesn't depend totally on monsoons rather they use technology to make efficient use of monsoon rainfall. We need FREEDOM. Freedom from corruption. Freedom from poverty. Freedom from female foeticides. Freedom from crimes especially against my female friends. Freedom from caste and religious differences. Freedom from child labors.Freedom from farmer suicides. Freedom from scams. Freedom from hunger. Freedom from litter. Freedom from struggle.

                                         Let us all pledge this Independence Day that we achieve this FREEDOM for our mother land.  'Vandemataram' is not 'One Day mataram' , we try our best to make our country better and never forget that we belong to this holy nation. Every single day let us celebrate Freedom and salute our nation for giving us this atmosphere. Wish you all a very happy Independence day.

Jai Hind. Satyamevajayate.
