India marks its 77th Independence Day on August 15, with political leaders from various parties extending their wishes to the nation.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi conveyed his Independence Day greetings, paying homage to freedom fighters and reiterating his commitment to their vision.

“Best wishes on Independence Day. We pay homage to our great freedom fighters and reaffirm our commitment to fulfilling their vision. Jai Hind!” tweeted the prime minister on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah extended warm Independence Day wishes to the country while honouring India’s freedom struggle heroes.

Using his official handle on social media platform X, previously Twitter, the Union Minister posted in Hindi, “I wish a very happy Independence Day to all my fellow countrymen. I bow to all the freedom fighters who got us independence.”

He also urged people from all communities to contribute to the nation’s unity and prosperity during the ‘Amit Kaal’ (golden era).

“This day also reminds us of our duties towards building the golden India that our freedom fighters dreamed of. Let’s take a solemn pledge to give our best to contribute to the country’s unity and prosperity in this golden era (Amrit Kaal),” added the Union Home Minister in his tweet.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi also extended his wishes on the 77th Independence Day to the people of the country and called Bharat Mata the voice of every Indian.

Sharing on social media platform X, previously known as Twitter, the Congress leader said, “Bharat Mata is the voice of every Indian! Happy Independence Day to all the countrymen.”

Rahul Gandhi also recounted his experience of the ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra,’ stating he embarked on a 145-day walk from the sea’s edge to the soft snow of Kashmir.

“Last year I spent 145 days walking across the land I call home. I started at the edge of the sea and walked through heat, dust, and rain. Through forests, towns, and hills, until I reached the soft snow of my beloved Kashmir,” he expressed.

Extending 77th Independence Day wishes to all citizens, Chief Minister of West Bengal Mamata Banerjee tweeted, “The chapters of our history are written in courage and resilience. As we hoist the tricolour, let’s remember the sacrifices of our freedom fighters and pledge to uphold the values they fought for.”

“Let their sacrifices inspire us to forge ahead with purpose and dedication. Let us rise beyond divisions, casting aside our differences, and stand united in our journey towards a brighter, better India.”
