As India prepares for Independence Day, Hindustan Times is revisiting iconic speeches from the Red Fort. In its ninth episode, the outlet highlights PM P. V. Narasimha Rao's 1995 address, in which he warned that Pakistan was 'exporting terror' and said Jammu and Kashmir is 'not an issue' but a part of India. Rao's speech also focused on the benefits of economic reforms reaching ordinary citizens. In a separate episode on PM Manmohan Singh's 2013 speech, Hindustan Times notes he began by expressing solidarity with Uttarakhand flood victims and announced the navy's first nuclear submarine. Singh paid tribute to rescue workers who died in the disaster. Both addresses, delivered years apart, reflect the changing priorities of India's leadership on security and development.
