Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said the objective of “Swaraj” would be achieved in true sense only if the country’s languages, dharma, culture and arts are preserved and its history passed on to the future generations.
At the launch of a 75-episode serial Swaraj -- Bharat Ke Swatantrata Sangram Ki Samagra Gatha produced by Doordarshan, Mr. Shah said from the Indian perspective, the meaning of “Swaraj” is not just limited to self-rule. It also encompasses the elements of the country’s own unique method of governance, languages, dharma, culture and arts.
The serial will be aired every Sunday from 9-10 p.m. on Doordarshan National from August 14. It is being dubbed in nine regional languages -- Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Gujarati, Oriya, Bengali and Assamese -- along with English. The serial in regional languages will be broadcast on Doordarshan’s regional channels from August 20.
