Home Minister Amit Shah took to his Twitter handle to tweet about recalling the freedom fighters and further added, “August Revolution is a golden chapter in the history of India’s independence. On this day in 1942, Gandhiji started the Quit India Movement by giving the slogan of Do or Die. Which became a big mass movement against foreign rule.

Salute to the immortal fighters who laid down their lives in this great sacrifice of freedom.” 

Union Minister Smriti Z Irani also tweeted, “To awaken the countrymen against the British rule, the “Quit India Movement” was started on this day in August 1942.

On this historic day, a lot of salutes to the hardworking immortal sacrificers who laid down their lives for the freedom of the country.

Priyanka Gandhi also wishes the people of India on this day and tweeted,
“On this day, united with the slogan of Quit India Movement, Indians started a cross-border struggle against the brutal British rule. Our greatest strength is solidarity. Let us take a pledge to ‘Jodo India’ and add new dimensions of development in India, raising the flag of unity in diversity.” 

On August 9, 1942, the people of India launched the decisive final phase of the struggle for independence. It was a mass upsurge against the colonial rule on a scale not seen earlier, and it sent out the unmistakable message that the sun was about to set on the British Empire in India.

Launched by Mahatma Gandhi on August 8, 1942, the Quit India Movement, also known as the “Bharat Chhodo Andolan”, was a mass civil disobedience movement that took place in the country. With ‘do or die’ being the dominant sentiment, the movement demanded an immediate exit of the British from India.
