The Head Mistress; Ms.S.Narmadha delivered the Independence Day speech among the students and participants. The Head Mistress spoke, “The Independence Day of India, which is celebrated throughout the Country on the 15^th of August every year, holds tremendous ground in the list of national days, since it reminds every Indian about the dawn of a new beginning, the beginning of an era of deliverance from the clutches of British colonialism of more than 200 years. It was on 15^th August 1947 that India was declared independent from British colonialism, and the reins of control were handed over to the leaders of the Country. India's gaining of independence was a tryst with destiny, as the struggle for freedom was a long and tiresome one, witnessing the sacrifices of many freedom fighters, who laid down their lives on the line. The day is observed as national festival and is treasured with great passion all over the country”. The program ended with distribution of sweets. -Kris
