The sacred festival of Independence Day inspires all Indians to contribute to the nation’s development and progress while remaining dedicated to the nation’s unity, integrity, and sovereignty. On the occasion of the 80th Independence Day, various special programmes were organised by the Shri Kashi Vishwanath Temple Trust on Saturday.
The Independence Day celebrations began in the morning with the Mangala Aarti of Kashi Vishwanath. On this special occasion, Kashi Vishwanath was adorned with the tricolour. The national flag was adorned with saffron, white, and green flowers, presenting a grand and captivating display. During the Mangala Aarti, special prayers were offered for the welfare, happiness, prosperity, and peace of the nation and all the countrymen.
Following this, the flag-hoisting ceremony concluded at 8 AM at Neelkanth Bhawan, the administrative office located near the Gangeshwar Mahadev idol. Following the flag-hoisting, a brief discussion session was held on the significance of Independence Day and the duties of citizens towards the nation, in which officials and employees of the Temple Trust expressed their views.
During the discussion session, speakers paid respectful homage and tribute to the immortal freedom fighters who sacrificed everything for the country’s independence. Furthermore, everyone resolved to fulfil their responsibilities with complete devotion in the national interest, serving the devotees with honesty, dedication, devotion, and a spirit of service.
On this auspicious occasion of Independence Day, the Shri Kashi Vishwanath Temple Trust extends its heartfelt greetings and congratulations to all the countrymen and urges everyone to actively contribute to the nation’s progress and development by pursuing outstanding work in their respective fields.
Earlier today, speaking on the occasion of India’s 80th Independence Day, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath emphasised that safeguarding the nation’s freedom is a collective duty that extends far beyond any single group or community, urging all 140 crore citizens of India to contribute equally in their respective fields.
