India's 67 th Republic Day was celebrated with a lot of national fervour and patriotism at R.B.V.R.R Women's College. Life, as a citizen of this great country of ours, can be quite tumultuous on most occasions. What with the humongous size and the vivid cultural diversity that somehow melts into one Incredible India, there is sure to be multiple controversies brewing at every other turn in this journey to greatness that we are on. 26th of January allows us all to forget our differences and remember that we are all proud and dedicated citizens of India. The happiness with which our hearts swell when we belt out the national anthem at the unfurling of our national flag, is just one of the many reminders of our riotously beautiful history that this day gifts us with.
This year's Republic Day was momentous, also, for the Quills Literary Club, as its member and student co-ordinator Ms. Srinidhi Gavaraj delivered a sterling speech, which reminded everyone about the importance of being a republic nation and the responsibilities that we have as citizens to work hard in order to ensure that we uphold the values listed in our constitution.

Srinidhi's words for the nation.
India is a self governing country since the 15th of August 1947 which we celebrate as Independence Day. However, on the 26th of January, since 1950 we celebrate Republic Day as the constitution of India came into force. This year we are celebrating the 67th Republic Day.
'Republic' means supreme power of the people living in the country and only public has rights to elect their representatives as political leaders to lead their country in right direction. So, India is a republic country where people elect its leaders as a President, Prime minister. Our great Indian freedom fighters have struggled a lot for the “purna swaraj” in India so that the future generations may live without any struggle and lead our country ahead.
Our great leaders Mahatma Gandhi, Bhagat Singh, Lal Bahadur Shastri fought against British to make India a free country. We need to remember them and salute them.
Our first President late Dr. Rajendra Prasad said, "we find the whole of this vast land brought together under jurisdiction of one constitution and one union which takes over responsibility of the welfare of more than 320 million men and women who inhabit it". How shameful it is, to say that we still are fighting with crimes, corruption, violence in our country. There is a need to get together and save our country from such crimes as it is pulling our nation back from going to its mainstream of development progress. We youth should be aware of our social issues as we are proud citizens and back bone of our country's future and solve them to grow. Our Prime Minister has introduced many programmes like swacch bharat, make in india, swayam, nayi manzil, beti bachao, beti padhao, pradhan mantra fasal bhima yojana, to name a few. We as citizens of India should take advantage of these various programmes for the development and progress of our nation, and make our country a proud place to live in.
