1985 - Then PM Rajiv Gandhi's Independence Day speech | Call for National “Harmony”

In 1985, then PM Rajiv Gandhi began his Independence Day speech recalling Nehru’s first flag hoisting and expressed sorrow over Indira Gandhi’s absence. Gandhi said most Indians, like him, never witnessed the freedom struggle and must uphold its values of truth and non-violence. He highlighted unity, especially in Punjab and Assam, urged self-reliance to fight poverty, and called for cleaner governance and a stronger, more harmonious nation. #independenceday #rajivgandhi #primeminister #leadership #national #harmony #speech Download Prasar Bharati Waves: http://pbwaves.page.link/open Click the link to license recordings of DD & AIR :- https://prasarbharati.gov.in/pb-archi...
