Speech 1
Good morning to everyone who is present here on this auspicious occasion. All of us are here to celebrate the 73rd republic day of our country today. I am obliged and honoured to give a speech on republic day. Republic Day, celebrated every year on 26th January has a special significance in the history of India. To make the event memorable the national event is celebrated every year with a lot of joy, happiness, and pride in our hearts. As we know on 26 January 1950, the Indian constitution came into effect and so from that day we the people of India constantly praise it as the Republic Day of our country. We all know that India got independence on 15 August 1947 but the nation didn’t have any constitution of its own. However, after many discussions and considerations, a committee headed by Dr BR Ambedkar submitted a draft of the Indian constitution which was adopted on 26th November 1949 and officially came into effect on 26th January 1950.
I want to end this speech by saying that India is a democratic country. The citizens living in a democratic country enjoy the privilege to elect their leader to lead the country. Although there has been a lot of improvement till now, it can also be said that we have been facing a few problems such as pollution, poverty, Unemployment, etc. One thing we all can do is to promise each other that we will become a better version of ourselves so that we could contribute to solving all these problems and making our nation a better place. Thank you, Jai Hind.
Speech 2
Good Morning Ladies and Gentlemen, first of all, I would like to wish you a very Happy Republic Day. It is an important day for all the Indians. Today when a few fellow Indians talk about the fear of losing basic rights that the constitution has given us, this day becomes more important. Although we celebrate republic day as a national festival since our childhood, we understand the real importance of this day when we grow up.
Gantantra Diwas is celebrated on 26th January every year. On this day in the year 1950, the Constitution of India came into effect. Our constitution gives us various rights and responsibilities too. We live in a democratic country where people enjoy their fundamental rights. In society, we have different caste, religions or many other things that separate us but on a broader picture, we all are Indians. India is a land that is a great example of “Unity in Diversity”. The beauty of our country is we have a different language and we also have conflicts and differences but on national festivals, we all stand as a united force.
Since childhood, 26th January has been a memorable day for all of us. Many of us may recall this day as a festival and celebrates it in schools by participating in cultural programs and in other activities. For a few of us, this is the day we get up to watch the republic day parade. The military parade starts from Vijay Chowk and culminates at the Red Fort in the national capital i.e. Delhi. The weapons and the equipment that the army shows in the parade reflect the power of our arm forces.
On this day the award and medals of bravery are also given to the armed forces and to the civilians too. The main attraction for the bravery awards is the young kids who are awarded by the Prime Minister for showing ultimate bravery besides being young and having saved the lives of other people. When the helicopters of the arms forces fly past the parade area and shower the rose petals on the audience everyone feels special. The program ends with the national anthem. Whether you are at home or watching the parade personally you get up to give respect to the national anthem. It’s a day that makes us think beyond the caste, creed, religion, state, language and colour and we all feel the same emotion of loving our country.
Speech 3
Good Morning, Everyone,
Respected Principal, teachers, my dear & near brothers and sisters, and my dear friends.
We are celebrating India’s 73rd birthday as a republic today, and a day of unity among people from different parts of India and around the world who care about her future well-being in this great land called INDIA!
The Constitution is a document that describes how the government of India works and what its responsibilities are to citizens in their daily lives as well as how good governments should work together with other countries to make sure they have
This day is commended as the public celebration of India, especially for people from different castes and religions who want to live together in a just society where all can be treated equally under the law.
Our constitution is the longest in the world and it’s about freedom for us people. If we lose our freedom, this may not be possible to read these days because of what happened in those countries that are no longer free from dictatorships and political oppression by other governments or rebels groups. So we always should be thankful for them, especially at times like these when conflicts come up again.
India is the largest democratic country in the world and I am proud to be an Indian national. This is all I can say:-
Bharat Mata Ki Jai, Bharat Mata Ki Jai, Bharat Mata Ki Jai …
Jay Hind. Jai Bharat

Delhi government restricts use of mobile phones in schools
The Education Department of the Delhi government has restricted the use of mobile phones in the classroom of all government and private schools.
The Education Department of the Delhi government has restricted the use of mobile phones in the classroom of all government and private schools.
The advisory issued by the Education Department on Thursday has asked the parents to ensure their children do not carry mobile phones to school. It also urged teachers and staff members not to use mobile phones in the school premises, especially where students are involved in learning activities.
According to the advisory, it pointed out the reason for banning the use of mobile phones in Delhi schools. The advisory highlights the prevalence of mobile phones in daily life and urges reflection on the potential negative consequences of overuse, including depression, anxiety, social isolation, hyperactivity, hypertension, sleep loss, and poor eyesight.
The advisory noted that bullying, harassment, and transmission of explicit images, as well as recording or uploading inappropriate content, can harm a child’s social fabric and future. Additionally, distractions caused by technology can negatively impact academic performance, life satisfaction, face-to-face conversation quality, and connection.
Therefore, the use of mobile phones definitely needs to be regulated in school premises and therefore all stakeholders connected with school education such as students, parents, teachers, and the heads of schools need to arrive at a consensus on the minimum use of mobile phones in their school so that a more meaningful learning atmosphere can be maintained in the classroom which makes for a better ambience and school environment for the students, the advisory said.
It is also mentioned that parents should ensure their children don’t have mobile phones with them while on school grounds. If students bring mobile phones to school, the school administration must arrange for safe and appropriate storage using lockers, other systems, etc.
Mobile phones should strictly not be allowed in the classrooms. Further, teachers and other staff are restrained from using mobiles during teaching-learning activities, especially in classrooms, playgrounds, laboratories and library, etc.
