MCDF members started on 15th August in a slightly different way from the daily routine. Very early in the morning, they reached their respective branches to celebrate Independence Day. They brought their children and family members to attend the celebration of freedom. They paid tribute to Netaji by decorating his photo with flowers and garlands. In each branch, the flag was hoisted as well as the national anthem was sung. To motivate the members, the branch Presidents told them about the story of the struggles of the freedom fighters. How the freedom fighters till the end of their life fought against the British and how they fulfilled their dream of “Swadesh” (homeland).
At the end of the speech, the members started marching the village by forming a queue. All people irrespective of religion, caste, language, age, gender participated in this march. They also marched around the whole area chanting slogans in the name of patriotism and Netaji.
