Just a few days ahead of Independence Day, the internet was delighted by a heartwarming display of patriotism from a cute little citizen. A video has gone viral on social media, showing a tiny voice from the misty mountains of Arunachal Pradesh echoing the spirit of nationalism.
In the clip, the little girl can be seen bringing the Indian National Anthem to life with her innocent yet powerful voice. The tiny tot, seemingly dressed in her school uniform while hanging her identity card around her neck, looked even more adorable with little rubber bands in her cutesy ponytails and a small napkin pinned to her outfit.

The video was also shared by Mutchu Mithi, BJP's State Chief Spokesperson in a post on X. He captioned it, "A little voice somewhere in Arunachal echoing a mighty nations anthem, letting the world know 'I am India and India is me'. Jai Hind."
Netizens also reacted with heartfelt emotions, and one user wrote, "These daughters and granddaughters of India will be the proud saviours of the Nation . Proud , beautiful , strong"
Another user wrote, "So cute. They will turn out to be more patriots than our north and south brigade of woke students"

I - Day celebrations: Dinesh Gundu Rao calls on faith leaders to champion peace

Mangaluru: On the 79th Independence Day, District In-charge Minister Dinesh Gundu Rao hoisted the national flag at Nehru Maidan and delivered a keynote speech emphasising the critical role of religious harmony in fostering development. He urged leaders of temples, mosques, and churches to educate their congregations about the importance of peace and social cohesion. He also appealed to artists from the realms of theatre, drama, and Yakshagana to propagate messages of unity through their art. He reiterated that collective effort must drive inclusive growth and said that paying homage to the martyrs who fought for India's freedom is every citizen's solemn duty. Assuring that the police would have full authority to maintain peace and prevent external disruptions, the minister mentioned that peace and harmony dialogues with community leaders have commenced, and ensuing action is underway based on mutual consensus. The Independence Day parade featured disciplined processions by police, reserve forces, KSRP, NCC cadets, Scouts and Guides, and members of the Bharat Seva Dal. Government and civic dignitaries in attendance included MP Brijesh Chowta, MLA Vedavyasa Kamath, MLC Ivan D'Souza, former MLA Harish Kumar, District Commissioner Darshan H.V., Police Commissioner Sudheer Kumar Reddy, IGP Amit Singh, SP Dr. Arun Kumar, and District Panchayat CEO Vinayak Narwade.

Nagaland Governor La Ganesan to be cremated in Chennai today

Chennai: The mortal remains of Nagaland Governor La. Ganesan, who passed away on Independence Day, will be cremated in Chennai on Saturday. His body, kept at his residence in T. Nagar for the public to pay homage, will be laid to rest this afternoon with full respect. Ganesan, 80, died at 6.23 p.m. on Friday while undergoing treatment in a Chennai hospital. A veteran leader with a long association with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), he was known for his accessibility to journalists and his willingness to provide clear on-record statements throughout his career. Born on February 16, 1945, in Thanjavur, Ganesan hailed from an orthodox Brahmin family with deep RSS roots. He lost his father at the age of nine and began his career as a Revenue Settlement Inspector in government service. Deeply committed to the nationalist movement, he resigned after nine years to become an RSS pracharak. During the Emergency in 1975, he played a crucial role as chief organiser of the RSS in Tamil Nadu, leading efforts to restore democracy. He was also active in addressing sensitive issues such as religious conversions in Meenakshipuram, communal unrest in Mandaikkadu, and caste-related tensions in Ramanathapuram and Puliangudi. In 1991, he joined the BJP to strengthen its base in Tamil Nadu. Rising steadily through the ranks, he served as organising secretary, national secretary, all-India vice-president, and state president. He represented Madhya Pradesh in the Rajya Sabha and was part of the BJP National Executive. A multifaceted personality, he edited the party's Tamil mouthpiece Ore Naadu and launched Pottramarai, a magazine to recognise Tamil scholars, writers, musicians, and artists. Fluent in multiple languages, he was known for his oratory and his ability to compose patriotic and national-integration-themed lyrics. In August 2021, he was appointed Governor of Manipur, later holding additional charge of West Bengal before being posted to Nagaland in February 2023. Condolences poured in from across the political spectrum. President Droupadi Murmu said Ganesan worked for the welfare of the people, and his contribution to Tamil Nadu and the country would be remembered. Prime Minister Narendra Modi said he was pained by the passing of a devout nationalist who dedicated his life to service and expanding the BJP in Tamil Nadu, while also being deeply passionate about Tamil culture. Governor RN Ravi recalled Ganesan's lifelong selfless service with humility, and Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, who paid homage in person, said he was known for his simplicity, calm nature, and ability to build friendships across political lines. AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami described him as an affable leader, while senior BJP leader and former Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan said his passing on Independence Day was poignant, reflecting his deep patriotism and contributions to Tamil literature. BJP state president Nainar Nagendran and former state chief K. Annamalai expressed sorrow, with Annamalai calling him a "simple and profound thinker". V.K. Sasikala, close aide of the late Jayalalithaa, remembered Ganesan's cordial ties with the AIADMK leadership, while AMMK leader TTV Dhinakaran praised him as a dignified leader and conveyed condolences to his family. Ganesan's demise marks the end of a long and eventful public life rooted in nationalism, politics, and literature. Leaders and people alike remembered him as a bridge-builder, scholar, and statesman whose contributions will endure.

Tricolour hoisted in 4 tribal hamlets in north Maharashtra for the first time since Independence

Ganesh Pavara had a challenging task on the eve of Independence Day. Managing with a feeble mobile network in his North Maharashtra hamlet, where electricity is yet to reach, he downloaded a video explaining how to tie a flag to a pole, so that it unfurls without a hitch. On Friday (August 15, 2025), leading a group of about 30 children and locals, the 20-something Pavara ensured that his remote Udadya hamlet, nestled in the Satpura range in Nandurbar district, witnessed its maiden flag hoisting. The hamlet, around 500 km from Mumbai and about 50 km from the nearest tehsil, has a population of 400, but has no government school. Pavara teaches at an informal school run by the NGO YUNG Foundation. 'This region is endowed with natural beauty, fertile soil, and the Narmada River flows through it. But being a hilly belt, it is difficult to reach,' says Sandeep Deore, founder of the YUNG Foundation. The foundation, which has been implementing education interventions in the region for three years, decided that the national flag should be hoisted in the hamlets of Udadya, Khaparmaal, Sadri and Manjnipada on Independence Day this year. More than 250 children enrolled in the four schools run by the foundation were present at the flag-hoisting ceremonies on Friday (August 15, 2025), besides local villagers. There is no government school or a gram panchayat office in these hamlets, hence, a flag-hoisting never took place in the last seven decades. The idea was not only to achieve a "first" but also to educate the local people about their democratic rights, said Mr. Deore. "The tribals here live a very independent life, but all of them may not know things like the rights guaranteed by our Constitution," he said. They often get fleeced or exploited while working as labourers or in day-to-day transactions, Mr. Deore pointed out. Many settlements, including Sadri, don't have road connectivity. Bhuvaansingh Pavra, a resident of Sadri, said people have to either walk for several hours or depend on a boat that plies on the Narmada to visit other villages in the area. The school of YUNG Foundation operates on his land. The lack of education is the biggest problem, and the next generation should not suffer from it, he said. The electricity grid has not reached any of the hamlets, and a majority of households depend on solar panels. Locals here speak the Pawari dialect, quite different from standard Marathi or Hindi, making it difficult for outsiders to communicate with them. Mr. Deore said it was difficult initially to win the trust of the people, but once they were convinced about the genuineness of the cause, it was easy to secure their cooperation. The foundation depends on donations to pay its teachers and procure basic infrastructure for its schools. But it can not implement a mid-day meal scheme, like in government schools, as these are informal schools. The anganwadi workers appointed by the government often stay away from these remote hamlets. There are, however, exceptions like Aajmibai, an anganwadi worker at Khaparmaal, who stays in the village allotted to her and does her job diligently.
