Prime Minister Narendra Modi, addressing the nation for the 12th consecutive time from the Red Fort on the 79th Independence Day, said that true freedom cannot exist for those who rely on others for their needs.

“Independence of those dependent on others is always tenuous,” he remarked, urging citizens to build a self-reliant India in every sector, from economy to technology.

The Prime Minister underlined that dependence weakens the foundations of freedom and that self-reliance is the key to securing the nation’s future.

He called on youth, industry, and innovators to make India a global leader through indigenous capabilities.

Speaking against external pressures and influences, he stressed that India must shape its destiny without compromise.

The vision, he said, is of a confident, independent nation that commands respect and safeguards its sovereignty through strength and self-sufficiency
