PM Narendra Modi today remembered the great women and men who took part in the Quit India Movement. Sharing a video message, the PM said that at the time of independence, the mantra was 'Karenge Ya Marenge', but now as we march towards celebrating 75 years of freedom, our resolve must be 'Karenge Aur Kar Ke Rahenge'.
The Prime Minister even shared a poem on Quit India penned by Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ji which was published in 1946 in 'Abhyudaya' a newspaper associated with Shri Madan Mohan Malaviya Ji.
He also shared pages from a report filed by the colonial administrators show how through the Quit India Movement, Bapu shook the foundations of colonial rule and accelerated our journey towards freedom.
Sharing another official report indicating the spread of the Quit India movement and the wide-scale participation, the PM said that Mahatma Gandhi’s clarion call galvanised the nation.
