On Independence Day, recognise our responsibilities: Sachin Tendulkar
Hindustan TimesUnity in Diversity — is a phrase which captures the essence of India, the world’s largest democracy. As we observe the 76th Independence Day, it is important for us to remember that the freedom earned by our predecessors brings with it a sense of responsibility to contribute to the nation’s growth. It not only propels the nation’s scientific progress, but also makes us aware as citizens of the endless possibilities we have as a nation. For a country shaped by generational diversities, it is incumbent upon us, as citizens of India, to recognise the weight of responsibility that accompanies our freedom. A comprehensive awareness of the roles and responsibilities can be crucial as we envisage the nation’s progression from the 77th till the 100th year of Independence, and beyond.
