RSS Sarsanghachalak Dr. Mohan Ji Bhagawat hoisted the National Flag on Independence Day at R L Institute of Nautical Science, Madurai, Tamilnadu today.
The excerpts of his speech:
‘I am so happy to be here on this 67th Independence Day Celebrations. I thank all of you who have given me this opportunity. Our Nation is an old nation, we face so many ups and downs in our national life. It is not only a celebration, but we also have to remember the past and present of our national life. We have to remember the people who have sacrificed their life for the freedom of our country. Freedom is essential for the life. Human beings are enjoying the independence and for getting independence we lost everything.
Saffron is the topmost colour in our national flag, it is well known to all of us. It denotes sacrifice or thyaga, green for prosperity, white for peace and the dharma chakra is also there.
We must not react in violent way for anything. We have to run the country even when little inconveniences occur. We should think of the past, and these three qualities of sacrifice, peace and prosperity. This is the need of the future of our country. Our forefathers worked for the freedom for this prosperous future and we have to guide the whole world.’
In memory and on the occasion of 150th year of Vivekananda celebrations, Mohan Ji presented a Vivekananda statue to the President of the College Sri R Lakshmipathy.
