Esteemed teachers and my dear students Happy Republic to you all!

Today we all have gathered here to celebrate our 66th Republic Day and on this auspicious occasion I extend my heartiest greetings and good wishes to you all. As we all know the importance of Republic Day,. However we need to be grateful to the founding fathers who formulated and drafted an exemplary Constitution of India that has steered India towardsprogress and development. Due to the untiring efforts of the great leaders / freedom fighters of our nation under oppressive conditions, we / you all are fortunate of being born in independent India. Now we as the citizens of this great nation and you children as the future citizens of the country, need to re-dedicate ourselves for building a stronger and developed nation.

Children, I would like to remind you of Swach Bharat Abhiyan initiated by our Prime Minister - Mr. Narendra Modi - which is of great importance. You are very well aware that cleanliness plays a key role for a healthy living. Dear students, this is your school and it is your foremost responsibility to keep your classrooms and the school premises clean i.e. 'swach', This would help in the overall cleanliness of the school. Of course, there are 'ayahs' who do their duty but as future citizens of the country, you need to be responsible and help 'ayahs' in doing their duty in the right way. Let's strive to build a cleaner and healthier nation.

My dear children, I thus conclude by saying these words that stand united, re-dedicate yourselves to the nation and work for the progress and prosperity of our country.
