On 26th morning I clicked this picture of school children while going for 'prabhat pheri'. One could see the enjoyment as well as the enthusiasm of those kid. When these kid passed before me, I noticed a particular kid who is holding a small tiny ‘TIRANGA’ with great sense of pride. I don’t know whether that was the pride of becoming the flag bearer of his column or something else. More than the reason, it was the manner he was carrying the flag really appealed me. It reminded me of my school days. I don't know why I was very serious on this 'prabhat pheri'. I, along with my other school friends, used to give slogan, such as "BANDE MATARM", "INQILAB ZINDABAD", 'MAHATMA GANDHI KI JAI", "SUBASH BOSE KI JAI', ETC. . We were very serious. I was amazed with the kind of pride the boy was marching with his group.

I have never noticed someone so proud to be the flag bearer .......

I hope and pray .... Let's all of us be proud flag bearer of the nation which has made this solemn pledge to secure JUSTICE, EQUALITY, LIBERTY, FRATERNITY, DIGNITY OF THE INDIVIDUAL AND UNITY & INTERGRITY OF THE NATION.
