The prime minister has appealed to the nation to celebrate the Independence Day as the 'Sankalp Parva' or the 'Day of Resolve'.

"We should celebrate 15th August 2017 as the Sankalp Parva or the Day of Resolve. We have to take pledge to quit un-cleanliness, poverty, terrorism, casteism and communalism from India," he said in his radio address on Sunday.

He also said that he would keep his Independence Day speech short this time.

"I have planned to keep my speech short this time not more than 40-50 minutes. For the previous three 15 August speeches, one consistent complaint has been that my speeches tend to be a little lengthy," he added.
