The Hyderabad State’s struggle for its Liberation stands as one of the most momentous chapters in the history of our nation’s quest for freedom, said Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan.
“This day holds profound significance in our hearts and in the annals of our country’s history. It is a day of solemn remembrance, introspection, and a renewed commitment to the ideals of liberty,” she said in a message to coincide with the Liberation Day on Sunday.
“While India gained independence on August 15, 1947, the former Hyderabad State, encompassing Telangana, Marathwada, and Hyderabad-Karnataka, breathed the air of freedom on September 17, 1948. It is imperative that the current generation comprehends the agonizing struggles our people endured during the Hyderabad Liberation Movement. Commemorating this day serves as a tribute to their immense sacrifices.,” she remarked.
