India celebrating her 75th year of Independence is truly a momentous occasion for each and every Indian, said Opposition leader in Rajya Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge.
“As we celebrate 75 years of Independence, we see that India has emerged as one of the strongest democracies of the world and also one of the largest economies of the world,” Mr. Kharge said., adding that in the past 15 years, India managed to lift 27 crore people out of poverty and strengthen our rural economy.
He said his social background and personal experiences always made him worry that the country’s hard-fought independence, political and social freedom and rights for every citizen of the country can be lost very quickly if people are not willing to be vigilant about the threats to our country and society.
