Each Indian must love his country. There are so many languages and different races in India; yet all Indians are united by common history and culture. The Indian people were also united in their long struggle for freedom. India became free in 1847, but the feeling of national unity should still be in our hearts.
It is the duty of each Indian not to fall to narrow minded people, who think only of their family, caste or city. We should all contribute for the development of our country. Our concern should not be confined to the interest should be our prime objective.
You must have read the story of the pigeons that were caught in a net. They flew away together with the net and escaped the clutches of the hunter. Internal fighting and squabbles weaken the country. All our time, money and energy goes in trying to destroy the opponent within our own country. What will happen if, taking advantage of the situation, somebody attacks us from outside? We will not be able to face the enemy together. We will not be able to protect our motherland. Our freedom should be very precious to us. It was attained by the sacrifices and struggles made by the freedom fighters. Thus, it is our duty to preserve the multi-culture of our country.
The development of our country depends on our attitude towards each other. We all are dependent on each other. People from any one region cannot claim to be true Indians. Each region, no matter how small it is, contributes significantly in making this country rich in culture and heritage.
A necklace with only one kind of precious stone looks monotonous and dull. A necklace with variety of germs looks colorful and beautiful. Our country has a variety of customs, traditions and languages. We should enjoy the special and unique features of each region. India is a land of diverse religions and cultures. Let us vow to preserve this unity in Diversity. This will be our true homage to the great Indian leaders who laid down their lives or sake of their country.
Gandhiji is the father of our nation. His full name is Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. Rabindranath Tagore gave him the title ‘Mahatma’. It means ‘a great soul’. We also call him ‘BAPU’. Gandhiji was born on October 2, 1869 at Porbandar in Gujarat state. After passing Matriculation he went to England and studied law. He became a barrister in 1891.
In 1893 Gandhiji went to South Africa on a legal case. At that time the African Government used to ill-treat the Indians, living there. Gandhiji was very much moved by the sufferings of Indians. He led a peaceful fight against the Government to improve the living conditions of Indians. He was successful in getting many rights to our people in South Africa.
He returned to India and joined the freedom struggle. He led a non-violent movement. Non-violence and Satyagraha were the two great weapons to fight against the British rule. He led many non-violent movements like salt satyagraha, non-cooperation movement, ‘Swadesi’ movement and ‘Quit India’ movement. Under his leadership India became free on 15th August 1947.
Gandhiji had great belief in truth, ‘Ahimsa’ and God. He preached up-liftment of Harijans, and the removal of untouchability. He worked hard for Hindu-Muslim unity. He was shot dead on January 30, 1948. But his message guides our nation forever.
