Indian Independence Day Quotes And Wishes 2025: On 15th August, 1947, India finally awoke to the light of freedom and began its tryst with destiny, becoming a nation free of the shackles of British dominance and rule after 200 years. Independence Day 2025 celebrates the 79th year of a free, secular, and democratic India that continues to grow despite its cultural and geopolitical challenges.
Indian Independence Day also honours the great sacrifices of our courageous freedom fighters and leaders of the pre-Independence struggles, who endured great pain in the fight against the oppressive British colonial regime and envisioned the country we live in today, with rights and liberties under the Indian Constitution. Many of them may be gone today, but their legacy and ideas continue to inspire the countrymen.
Many influential leaders like the Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Subhas Chandra Bose, ‘Shaheed-e-Azam’ Bhagat Singh, Chandra Shekhar Azad, BR Ambedkar, Lala Lajpat Rai and many others are still honoured by the government of India and citizens across states for their pivotal role in the creation of a free and flourishing India.
On Independence Day 2025, citizens in various states will take part in flag-hoisting ceremonies, exhibitions, festivities and functions that recall the pre-Independence ordeal of two centuries and educate youth and adults on how these brave freedom fighters inspired the nation to join hands in uprooting the cruel British regime. While alive, these great visionaries gave the countrymen quotes that still evoke pride and respect for the motherland.
