Good morning to respected elders and my fellow students, We have assembled here today on the occasion of the Republic Day in India. Moments ago, we have heard the speech from our honourable Chief Guest after hoisting the national flag. The speech was also heard by us from our Teachers and School / College Management. Now I would say for giving me such an excellent possibility to stand here and talk a bit about our precious nation on this Republic day. India is a democratic state.
Autonomy was achieved by India on January 26th 1950. The Constitution of India was formed and as each year we observed Republic Day on this date. In this year we are observing the 65th republic day in India. It can’t mean that just on Republic day we have to remember the sacrifices of our great leaders towards the country but daily we have to recall and commend them.
First of all I would like you the make familiar with the meaning of Republic, the word republic represent the system of ruling or government in which the supreme leader of a country (in case of India – the President) is elected by the people, therefore, summarizing the meaning of the word we can say that republic mean by the will of people, But the system of republic in India was not came from the word of mouth, but from the aching hearts of the millions of Indian, after the centuries long foreign rule in the country (India) and interminable pains of the people as it became evident to make Indian free from the foreign rule so it also became inevitable to make a system of government in which the freedom and other rights of the Indian people can be secured in utmost way, therefore, the system of Indian republic became indispensable in context of India. But the Indian Republic Day (26th January) also marked an milestone in the history of India, which is enactment of the Indian constitution (which was enacted on 26th January 1950). Constitution of India is the written security of the rights of People from the governmental tyranny.
Today, we have come a long way into future from the first anniversary of Indian Republic Day, our country in these years have achieved a lot of unprecedented development and a unique place in the world, but still a lot more to be done. The true meaning/ ideals of the democracy are yet to be achieved at all the levels. Our leaders, those who fought for Indian freedom, those who sacrificed everything they had in course of Indian freedom, have always been the source of our inspiration for the service to this mother land. Now, the time is ours we have to make our country more peaceful and to take it to pinnacle of prosperity, this will our tribute to our leaders and our service to this country.
