ITANAGAR, Aug 7: Arunachal Pradesh Governor Lt. General K.T. Parnaik (Retd.), has greeted the people of the State on the solemn and inspiring occasion of the Quit India Movement commemoration. He expressed hope that the indomitable spirit and unwavering courage of our freedom fighters continue to inspire all to stand against injustice and inequality.
In his message, the Governor stated that the Quit India Movement, launched by Mahatma Gandhi on August 8, 1942, was a defining moment in India’s struggle for independence. With the powerful call of ‘Do or Die’, Gandhi urged the British to leave India immediately, sparking a nationwide uprising. Despite brutal repression, imprisonment of leaders, and suppression of protests, the movement ignited a spirit of resistance and self-determination among Indians. It shook the foundations of British rule and paved the way for India’s eventual freedom in 1947. The movement remains a symbol of courage, unity, and the unbreakable will of a nation determined to be free, he said.
The Governor said that today, the call is different, but no less urgent. He urged the people to free our nation from the chains of poverty, ignorance, inequality, and corruption. Let us pledge to rise above differences and contribute to building a strong, inclusive, and self-reliant India, the Governor said in his message.
