Patna: Today, the 80th Independence Day is being celebrated in Bihar with full enthusiasm, passion and grandeur. From the capital, Patna, to the corners of the state, the atmosphere of patriotism is established with the flag of the tricolor, the flag and the glory. From the offices of the government institutions, political parties to the common citizens, the glory of Independence celebration is also visible.
In this regard, the national flag was also hoisted in the premises of Bihar Assembly. Assembly Speaker Prem Kumar showed respect to the country and the constitution by unfurling the flag. Deputy Speaker of the Assembly Narendra Narayan Chaudhary and Deputy Speaker Udhish Narayan Singh and others were present on this occasion.
A day to remember sacrifices
Independence Day is not just an official ceremony, but an opportunity to remember the sacrifices of the countless martyrs and freedom fighters, whose struggle and sacrifices have made India a free and democratic country today. The role of Bihar in the freedom movement was very important. The farmers, youth and common people here actively participated in the struggle against the British rule and played an important role in bringing the freedom movement to the masses.
A decisive voice of change arose from Champaran
The mention of Bihar's freedom struggle is incomplete without Champaran. Mahatma Gandhi's arrival at Champaran is considered a decisive chapter in India's freedom movement. The outcry against the exploitation of the peasants for indigo cultivation and the repressive policies of the British government later turned into the Champaran Satyagraha.
The Champaran Satyagraha not only encouraged the peasants to raise their voice for their rights, but also gave a new direction to the nationwide awareness against the British rule. This is the reason why every tricolor flying in spring today also tells the story of this wonderful heritage, struggle and sacrifice.
Flags were also hoisted in the offices of political parties
Independence Day celebrations have been going on since morning in the capital Patna in government premises and state offices of various political parties. The national flag is also being hoisted in the offices of various political parties including JDU, BJP, RJD and us and tributes are being paid to the Mujahideen who sacrificed for the freedom of the country.
Main official function at Gandhi Maidan
The main attraction of the Independence Day will be the main official function held at the historic Gandhi Maidan in Patna. Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary will unfurl the national flag and take the parade salute for the first time as Chief Minister at Gandhi Maidan.
In the presence of thousands of people, when the tricolor will be hoisted high in the sky, the entire atmosphere of Gandhi Maidan will be full of patriotism, pride and emotions. This 80th Independence Day celebration will be a symbol of Bihar's historical legacy, democratic values and commitment and loyalty to the country.
