Independence Speech for School Children
Independence Day speech

Respected teachers and all my dear friends,

The day 15th August of every year is a golden day written in the history of the world. We got freedom on this date and it is a day worth a celebration. When we celebrate it hoisting the flag, playing our National Anthem with fervor, distributing sweets, we need to sail back into the past to remember and pay homage to the builders of our nation.

My dear friends,

We were the privileged lot to have been born in free India. We were able to breathe the fresh free air since our birth. Before 1947 we were under the rule of British. Slavery is always painful. It was indeed a Himalayan task for every Indian those days to fight against those cruel British rulers. We must not allow those hard times and struggles fade away from our memories. Hence it is befitting for us to celebrate such National festivals and recall those heroic deeds of our National heroes. We must remember those who laid their lives and suffered a lot for our mother land. Right from Mahatma Gandhi to the local patriotic leaders we owe our gratitude.

Today we have come a long way in the path of free India. We have proved ourselves worthy of freedom. We are considered as the largest democracy in the world. We achieved great heights in many fields as a free nation. But still we face a lot of problems. Are we very successful in using our freedom in the right manner? If so, why should there be so many bomb blasts, killings, attacks on government offices, cases of corruption against so many politicians? Why are we still a developing country not a developed country?

Well my dear friends, what can a student do at this juncture? Should we go and catch the terrorists? Should we fight against the corrupted politicians? Or should we take over the country into our hands by waging another war for freedom? No, we are not expected to do all these things. But we can do a lot more. Think how we can make India a developed country. Don’t

    "Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth,"-John F. Kennedy. The king of Great Britain was imposing taxes on us without our consent. He cut off all of our trades with the world, and he has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us. The question is if gaining our independence is a good idea or not? I believe we should allow him to cut all connections with us because that way we can enforce our own laws and grow as a fair country where everyone votes and are all equal. Gaining our independence will take time which we will make it without Britain.…

    I was born in Hanover County, Virginia to two hardworking, tender parents on May 29, 1736. At the youthful age of eighteen, I wed my beloved Sarah Shelton (may she rest in peace) and began working as a planter like my father. After this failed attempt due to a catastrophic fire that consumed our home, I arduously worked as both a student and my own teacher to familiarize myself with the law . My endeavor as a lawyer proved to be prosperous, for I had made a renowned name for myself as an orator. On May 20, 1765 I succeeded in securing for myself a seat in the Virginia House of Burgesses . Time and time again, I found myself in generous opposition with Great Britain and her arbitrary acts of colonial exploitation. As prospects for war in hopes American independence became auspicious, I urged the public to support the American cause and the conviction for unrestricted liberty . The nation’s triumph against Great Britain proved that America is more than equipped to be a nation of prosperity AND democracy. This is a nation where we can choose to govern ourselves in rectitude and solidarity. This is a nation where a Virginian can live side by side with…

    THE NATION celebrating its 63rd Independence Day. India’s struggle for Independence is a saga of those thousands of men, women and even children who sacrificed their lives for the freedom of the nation. And so by celebrating Independence Day, a homage is paid to all those who fought to bring Independence to our country. But gone are the days when every Indian citizen valued the importance of this great day. Time has eroded those sentiments and now we observe this day just like any other day or a holiday. Children are forced to go to schools to attend the flag hoisting ceremony by making attendance compulsory. Children seems to have no feeling for this day and the same can be said for the adults in our country also.…

    country is facing hardships today. Bharat (India) has been the treasure house of spirituality since ancient times, but, today, it has lost both sathya (truth) and dharma (righteousness) and is enmeshed in unrighteous falsehood and injustice. It is therefore incumbent upon students to dedicate themselves to the task of restoring the pristine glory of Bharat. Just as the parents are worried and sad if their children lag behind in studies, so also Mother India feels aggrieved on seeing her children lacking moral and ethical values. You have to remember that all those whom you revere as ideal citizens and noble souls were once students themselves. Never forget that students of today are the future citizens and leaders of this country. Take to righteous actions from an early age The value of an individual depends on their culture. The real meaning of the word culture lies in giving up bad thoughts and bad actions and cultivating sacred thoughts and performing noble deeds. The country is not a mere piece of land; it is an assemblage of citizens. For the country to progress, the citizens have to cultivate moral, ethical, and spiritual values. It is not possible for the citizens and the leaders to…
