New Delhi: A day before the 75th Independence Day, the country’s first tribal woman President Draupadi Murmu addressed the country for the first time today. Every year a day before Independence Day, the President addresses the nation. During this, he said that, on the eve of 76th Independence Day, I extend my warm greetings to all the Indians living in the country and abroad. The day of 14th August is celebrated as Partition-Horrific Memorial Day. The purpose of celebrating this Memorial Day is to promote social harmony, human empowerment, and unity.

Main points of President Draupadi Murmu’s address…
President Murmu, in his address to the nation, said, on August 15, 1947, we cut the shackles of colonial rule. While celebrating the anniversary of that auspicious day, we salute all the freedom fighters. He sacrificed everything so that we can all breathe in a free India.

Promote unity
He said that the day of 14th August is being celebrated as Partition-Horrific Memorial Day. The purpose of celebrating this Memorial Day is to promote social harmony, human empowerment, and unity.

India adopted universal adult suffrage
The President said that in most democratic countries, women had to struggle for a long time to get the right to vote. But from the very beginning of our republic, India adopted universal adult suffrage.

He said that the Amrit Mahotsav of Azadi was started in March 2021 by reviving the memory of the Dandi Yatra. That epoch-making movement established our struggle on the world stage. Our festival was started by honoring him. This festival is dedicated to the people of India.

Women empowerment
The President said I request every citizen of the country to know about their fundamental duties, and follow them so that our nation can touch new heights. The source of India’s new self-confidence is the youth, farmers, and above all the women of the country. He said that women are moving ahead by overcoming many stereotypes and barriers. Their increased participation in the magic and political processes would prove decisive. Today the number of elected women representatives in our Panchayati Raj Institutions is more than fourteen lakhs.

He also said that many of the hopes of our country rest on our daughters. They can achieve great success if given the right opportunities. Our daughters are waving their flag in every field from being fighter pilots to being space scientists.

Tribal Pride Day
He said that the government’s decision to celebrate every 15 November as Tribal Pride Day since last year is welcome. Our tribal superheroes are not just local or regional icons but they are a source of inspiration for the entire nation. It is our resolve that by the year 2047, we will fully realize the dreams of our freedom fighters.

Biggest vaccination campaign
In his address to the nation, President Murmu said, “We have launched the largest vaccination campaign in human history with indigenously manufactured vaccines. Last month, we crossed the 200 crore vaccine coverage mark. Our achievements in dealing with this epidemic have been more than many developed countries of the world. When the world was grappling with the economic consequences of the severe crisis of the Corona epidemic, India took care of itself and is now moving forward again at a rapid pace. Presently India is one of the fastest-growing major economies in the world.

Pledge to surrender everything
Referring to the environment in his address, President Murmu said, “Today, when new challenges are being faced by our environment, then we should strongly protect everything related to the beauty of India. Conservation of water, soil, and biological diversity is our duty toward our future generations. Whatever we have is given by our motherland. That is why we should take a pledge to dedicate everything to the security, progress, and prosperity of our country.

Happy independence day
At the end of his address, President Murmu said I congratulate the Armed Forces of India, the Indian Missions abroad and the diaspora-Indians who make their motherland proud. I convey my best wishes for a happy and prosperous life to all the countrymen.
