 Students editorial
On 15th August 1947, the Constituent Assembly of India met for its fifth session at 11 PM. In this
meeting Jawaharlal Nehru, the newly elected PM of India delivered his famous speech “Tryst with Des-
tiny”. He said, and I quote "At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake
to life and freedom." As we celebrate the 75th Independence Day this year, we see this vision come to
fruition. The development and progress India has made in the past 75 years of independence is because
we, the proud and patriotic citizens of India, have performed our duties with dedication and utilized
the power of independence responsibly. The glorious years of freedom that we celebrate each year on
the 15th of August, is an opportunity for us to pay tribute and express gratitude to all our valiant lead-
ers who fought and sacrificed their lives for an independent and free India that we see today.
SPARK TEAM : The unity and nationalistic feeling that is engraved in our hearts, is what truly makes every year of in-
dependence special.
