speech on the independence day of india

A very Good Morning respected principal, teachers n my dear friends. Today, we have gathered here to celebrate the 67th independence day of our country. It gives me immense pleasure as a citizen of India to share my views with u .67 years ago, on this day we engraved history n made a mark of our independence . Our nation breathed a sigh of relief but this independence was not an escapade to walk away with but a journey of tears, blood and sweat. It was a time where the whole nation came forward to sacrifice every strand of strength it had to pay for its freedom. We've had the greatest leaders of all times who led us on the path of freedom. we must never let their hardwork fade away. The fresh air of independence that we breath today is nothing but the fruit of their sacrifice and hard work.India, today is the largest democracy in the world. It comprises of 29 states and 7 union territories being the 7th largest country in the world area wise. We are a vast multi linguistic country with 780 languages and 86 scripts. We as Indians hold a great legacy to carry on. We have a freedom to defend , and a tale of selfless heroism of our freedom fighters to tell. Our nation is blessed with abundance of natural beauty as we are a tropical country. Its our ancestral property that we have to protect and the values of which have been cultivated through ages and for which we are known today. Our rich heritage is something that has taken centuries to create the mark of the kings n great rulers practicing the respected cultures and rituals here in India. India has been a liberal country,since a long time as all the religions allowed to be practised in India and we have had great part in justifying the word freedom in true sense. We have been one of the most peaceful civilization as India has never captured any kingdom or country whatsoever for the last 10000years like our peace,we belong to one of the most intelligent race,as games like chess ,snake and ladder,various other
