Echoes of Freedom

Anthology of Poems

Freedom — a word that carries the weight of centuries. On 15th August 1947, India broke the chains of colonial rule, but even decades later, the question remains — Are we truly free? This book, Echoes of Freedom, is not just a tribute to our freedom fighters, but a voice raised against the invisible chains that still bind us. It is a reflection, a rebellion, and a request — to awaken, to question, and to act. As a writer and a young citizen of this nation, I feel the pain of injustice when truth is silenced, when girls are still unsafe, and when people are denied their right to speak or dream. Through poetry, essays, and thought-provoking reflections, this book captures the spirit of resistance and reminds us that true independence is not just political — it is personal, social, and emotional. Every page of this book echoes the sacrifices of the past and the struggles of the present. It is a call to the youth — to rise, to think, and to rebuild a society where freedom lives not just in books, but in everyday life. Let us not forget — the real celebration of independence is in ensuring that every voice is heard, every dream is respected, and every citizen feels free. With hope and courage,
