PM Modi Invites Citizens To Share Ideas For Independence Day Speech 2025
As India prepares to celebrate Independence Day on August 15, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has called upon citizens across the country to share their thoughts, ideas, and suggestions for his traditional address from the ramparts of the Red Fort.
In a message shared on social media, the Prime Minister encouraged people to actively participate in shaping the themes of this year's speech, continuing a tradition of inclusive governance that he has promoted since taking office.
Taking to his X handle, PM Modi wrote: "As we approach this year's Independence Day, I look forward to hearing from my fellow Indians! What themes or ideas would you like to see reflected in this year's Independence Day speech? Share your thoughts on the Open Forums on MyGov and the NaMo App..."

— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) August 1, 2025
This annual invitation to the public has become a hallmark of PM Modi's Independence Day preparations, reinforcing the idea of participatory democracy.
The Prime Minister has consistently used feedback from citizens to shape the content of his national addresses, often highlighting grassroots success stories, innovation, youth achievements, and policy suggestions that reflect the pulse of the nation.
The MyGov platform, launched in 2014, has become a key channel for such interactions between the government and the Indian public. The NaMo App, the Prime Minister's official mobile application, also serves as a direct medium for people to engage with government initiatives and campaigns.
As India stands at the threshold of its 79th year of independence, this year's celebrations are expected to be marked by themes of national unity, technological progress, and a vision for the future as the country approaches its 80th year of freedom in 2026.
Citizens can now visit the MyGov website or use the NaMo App to submit their ideas and messages. Selected thoughts may find a place in the Prime Minister's Independence Day address, an opportunity for Indians from all walks of life to have their voices echoed from the historic Red Fort.

CM flags off Tiranga cyclothon for girls from Vidhan Sabha
New Delhi: Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Tuesday flagged off Tiranga cyclothon for girls from Delhi Legislative As-sembly in Civil Lines to Rajghat. Addressing the participants, Gupta said the true glory of the national flag will be realised when girls achieve complete freedom and that her government is committed to securing a better future for them. The cyclothon, aimed at empowering women, was flagged off by CM Gupta along with Delhi Education Minister Ashish Sood. Meanwhile, the Union Culture Ministry's 'Har Ghar Tiranga Bike Rally', was flagged off by Union Parlia-mentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju, Union Culture Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, Union Minister of State for Defence Sanjay Seth, CM Gupta, and several Members of Parliament. At the bike rally, CM Gupta said, 'Have you seen before 2014, that a Prime Minister is leading people with Tiranga in his hands? Leaders left the Tiranga before Independence. Today, people who keep the copy of the Constitution in their pockets don't have Tiranga in their hands.' 'They are the same people who used to claim that they got the country independent but today the same people don't believe in the country's integrity,' she said. The CM added that 'our lives depend on this Tiranga and the three colours represent the prosperity of the country'. 'Every Indian aspires that our Tiranga remains high and immortal. The sky echoes with the chants of 'Bharat Mata ki Jai' as this Tiranga Yatra is being taken out,' she said. Everyone, right from the MPs to our brave soldiers, is expressing their patriotism. Even 78 years after Independence, our love for our country is continuously increasing with each passing year, the CM said. 'I thank PM Narendra Modi for taking this national festival to every household.' Sood urged citizens not to treat Independence Day as a long weekend. 'We should contribute in keeping our homes and locality clean,' he said. India will celebrate its 79th Independence Day on August 15.

Soldier Killed In Action Near Line Of Control During Pak Infiltration Attempt
A soldier was killed near the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir's Uri during a major firefight between Indian and Pakistan forces during an infiltration attempt. According to sources in the Army, infiltrators tried to enter India late on August 12. This was different from a routine infiltration attempt, as the intruders received firing support from the Pakistan Army. Such an infiltration attempt is typically carried out with the support of Pakistan's Border Action Teams, the dirty tricks department of the Pakistan Army. As Indian soldiers retaliated to the infiltration attempt, a gunfight broke out and a soldier succumbed to his injuries. The infiltration attempt was foiled, but the intruders took advantage of the bad weather and managed to escape. An official Army statement on the incident is awaited. This is the first major provocation by Pakistan after the uneasy calm in the aftermath of Operation Sindoor, India's counterstrike to the Pahalgam terror attack that left 26 innocents dead. Following India's targeted airstrikes in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir and Pakistan's drone attacks along India's western border, the two sides had agreed on a ceasefire after Islamabad reached out to New Delhi. The past couple of months have seen Pakistani leaders make reckless public statements. Pakistan's Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir recently made headlines for his threats to nuke India. Speaking in the US, Munir reportedly threatened to take down "half the world" if Pakistan faced an existential threat in a future war with India. India responded that "nuclear sabre-rattling" is Pakistan's "stock-in-trade", and expressed regret that such remarks were made from the soil of a friendly third country. "The international community can draw its own conclusions on the irresponsibility inherent in such remarks, which also reinforces the well-held doubts about the integrity of nuclear command and control in a state where the military is hand-in-glove with terrorist groups," the government said. "India has already made it clear that it will not give in to nuclear blackmail and will continue to take all necessary steps to safeguard its national security," the Ministry of External Affairs said.
