Freedom is a mindset, which might be changed or gets blurred with time. As per our history textbooks, the major uprising of 1857 paved our way towards the freedom struggle. That took us 90 more years to finally become a free nation on 15th August, 1947. Not just blood and bullets were involved, but a lot of other factors like unity, faith, leadership, self-belief, patience, consistency, etc. played a big role. We need to ask this question to ourselves, if we are doing justice to all the sacrifices made by our freedom fighters? On the 75th anniversary of our nation's independence day, don't you think that freedom is a continous process of fighting the oppression, injustice, our shortcomings and evils of our society. We all are the flag bearers of our nation, protecting our independence is not just the duty of our nation's armed forces. We don't have to feel ourselves bounded by anything or anybody. Where do you wish to see your nation in next 25 years? There are still many challenges ahead of us, social discrimination, gender inequality, poverty to name a few of them. Let us continue to put in our maximum efforts to overcome such challenges. Lets not just limit our celebrations to a day, but keep on raising the bar of success everyday. Our freedom fighters gave this nation to us as a gift, let's not empty its darts like a toy gun. Instead, bring all the fire and passion in your hearts to fuel the development of our nation.
