Independence Day Eve: PM Narendra Modi pays tributes to victims of Partition
Indian PM Narendra Modi on Monday paid tributes to those who lost their lives during the partition of the country in 1947.
Modi posted the tweet on a day when the nation is observing 'Vibhajan Vibhishika Smriti Diwas'.
Modi paid homage to them and recalled the struggles of those who were uprooted from their homes.
विभाजन विभीषिका स्मृति दिवस उन भारतवासियों को श्रद्धापूर्वक स्मरण करने का अवसर है, जिनका जीवन देश के बंटवारे की बलि चढ़ गया। इसके साथ ही यह दिन उन लोगों के कष्ट और संघर्ष की भी याद दिलाता है, जिन्हें विस्थापन का दंश झेलने को मजबूर होना पड़ा। ऐसे सभी लोगों को मेरा शत-शत नमन।
— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) August 14, 2023
"Partition Remembrance Day is a time to reverently remember those Indians whose lives were sacrificed in the partition of the country. Along with this, the day also reminds us of the suffering and struggle of those who were forced to bear the brunt of displacement. I salute them," Modi wrote in Hindi in the X platform.
Last week, Narendra Modi asked citizens to upload photos with Tiranga on harghartiranga.com under the 'Har Ghar Tiranga' initiative between August 13 and August 15.
The initiative has been taken as a part of the Independence Day celebration.
Modi tweeted: "The Tiranga symbolises the spirit of freedom and national unity. Every Indian has an emotional connect with the Tricolour and it inspires us to work harder to further national progress."
India will celebrate Independence Day on Tuesday.
