PM Modi delivered his 11th Independence Day speech today and addressed the multiple issues. Leader of opposition Rahul Gnadhi and other cabinet ministers were also present in the Red Fort during the celebration. This is the tradition of addressing the nation on this historic occasion to celebrate India’s independence.

After Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has created history by becoming the third Indian prime minister to give 11 straight speeches on Independence Day. On August 15, 2024, he gave his most recent speech—the first he had given since winning a third term in office.

  • Jawaharlal Nehru: The first Prime Minister of India, Nehru delivered a total of 17 consecutive Independence Day speeches.
  • Indira Gandhi: The only female Prime Minister of India, she delivered 16 speeches, with 11 of them being consecutive.

Modi’s first Independence Day speech was in 2014, and since then, he has consistently addressed the nation each year. His speeches are noted for their length, averaging around 82 minutes, with his longest being 94 minutes in 2016.

This major accomplishment demonstrates Modi’s ongoing influence in Indian politics and his capacity to interact with the public through these yearly speeches. The Independence Day speeches are an opportunity to honor our country and build relationships with the public in addition to providing a forum for policy announcements. Modi frequently acknowledges different organizations and initiatives in his speeches, which highlights the areas of emphasis for his administration.

When comparing the length and content of his Independence Day speeches to those of Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi, Prime Minister Narendra Modi stands apart.

Length of Speeches

  • Narendra Modi: Modi has set a record with an average speech duration of 82 minutes, with his longest speech reaching nearly 100 minutes in 2024. His speeches have consistently increased in length over the years, with notable durations of 94 minutes in 2016 and 90 minutes in 2020 and 2021.
  • Jawaharlal Nehru: Nehru’s inaugural speech in 1947 lasted only 24 minutes, which is significantly shorter than Modi’s addresses. His longest recorded speech was 72 minutes.
  • Indira Gandhi: Gandhi’s longest speech was 54 minutes in 1972. She also delivered shorter speeches, with some as brief as 14 minutes in 1966.

Content of Speeches

  • Narendra Modi: Modi’s speeches are characterized by a focus on ambitious national goals and initiatives, such as “Viksit Bharat” (Developed India) by 2047, skill development, and technological self-sufficiency in semiconductor production. His speeches often include a blend of policy announcements, reflections on national pride, and critiques of opposition parties, particularly the Congress party, which he accuses of underestimating the capabilities of the Indian populace.
  • Jawaharlal Nehru: The goals and difficulties of a recently independent country were frequently reflected in Nehru’s speeches. In his calls for national development and advancement, he highlighted among Indians the importance of togetherness, self-reliance, and hard work. Notably, he called for more diligence in a 1959 address where he voiced concerns about the work ethic of Indians.
  • Indira Gandhi: Gandhi frequently emphasized the value of resiliency and proactive participation in society advancement in her lectures, which frequently touched on social issues and national unity. She emphasized the perils of complacency and urged personal accountability for promoting societal change in her address from 1974.

Modi’s speeches are significantly longer and more focused on contemporary issues and future aspirations compared to the shorter, more reflective speeches of Nehru and Gandhi. Modi’s style incorporates a blend of policy, critique, and motivational rhetoric aimed at a modern audience, while Nehru and Gandhi’s addresses were more about laying the foundation for a newly independent nation and addressing immediate social concerns.
