As a Bahraini Citizen as well as an Overseas Citizen of India, I am proud to offer my sincere congratulations to the Republic of India on its 76th anniversary of independence. The world’s largest secular democracy, upholding the values of diversity, inclusivity, and democratic principles under the leadership of Hon’ble President of India, Smt. Droupadi Murmu and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, sets an inspiring example and remains a beacon of hope, harmony and progress for the global community. India’s commitment to safeguarding the rights and freedoms of its 1.3 billion citizens, speaking over 100 languages and practicing over 80 religions various backgrounds is commendable. As the country celebrates its rich heritage and cultural tapestry my fervent wish is that India’s democratic spirit continues to flourish, fostering unity and prosperity for generations to come.
