Prime Minister Narendra Modi raised the national flag for the 11th time in a row at the Red Fort. Over 10,000 cops, facial recognition cameras, and snipers were deployed in Delhi, while security camps were put up in 13 villages in Chhattisgarh's Maoist-hit Bastar district, where the Tricolour would be hoisted for the first time on Independence Day.Â
On the eve of Independence Day, August 14, President Droupadi Murmu addressed the nation, emphasizing the importance of strengthening affirmative action as a vehicle for inclusion while rejecting divisive tendencies based on imagined social hierarchies. She also stated that India's successful electoral process supports democratic forces around the world.Â
The Independence Day address was PM Modi's first major event following the election results, which would be watched and understood by millions of Indians. So, did Prime Minister Modi's voice and body language represent the new electoral reality on Thursday? Will the government be able to continue on the reform path? Modi began his address by recounting how 40 crore Indians beat a superpower to end the colonial yoke. He then underlined that Indians currently number 140 crore.
