“On the occasion of the 72nd Independence Day, I have great pleasure in conveying my greetings to the people of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
Independence Day is a day of remembrance as well as of dedication. A day of remembrance of all those great patriots whose sacrifices has made it possible for us today to enjoy the fruits of freedom. A day of re- dedication to the noble ideals of truth, non-violence, peace, solidarity and brotherhood which inspired our national struggle for freedom. On this auspicious day, let us pledge ourselves to rededicate to the cause of nation building.
My warm and patriotic wishes to make this day truly memorable. Wish you all, a happy Independence Day.” E.S.L Narasimhan.
