At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom. A moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step out from the old to the new, when an age ends, and when the soul of a nation, long suppressed, finds utterance….. We end today a period of ill fortune, and India discovers herself again.We are celebrating today India's 62nd Independence year!
~~This is the famous part of the speech given by our first Prime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru.
Happy Independence Day to all Indians!
Jai Hind!
