Independence day

14th August was a very exciting day on 3rd floor, Metropolitan. When one passed through the main entrance, a very aesthetically done rangoli welcomed them. Yes, RFD was celebrating Independence day! And how!!

The office was decorated with ribbons & balloons.


Special bands were created out of the three colours of our tricolour & employees could choose a colour that they liked। Depending on the colour you chose, a thought was shared with you...

The celebration began with the flag hoisting ceremony

Dinanath spoke passionately about the need to cherish our independence...

And people listened.

A slogan writing contest had been organised earlier in the week and the winners were announced
The first prize went to Ms. Pranali Sawant!

अभिनव अपना गर्व हैं।

स्वतंत्रता ६१ वा सुवार्नापर्व हैं।

ना हो पाए हम उन क्षणों के साक्षी

पर आओ उसे निभाना हमारा कर्तव्य हैं!

शहीदों की कुर्बानी व्यर्थ ना जाए

सोने की चिडिया फिर ले चेह्चेहाये

देखे ये जो ख्वाब उन्होंने भारत के

आओ उनको हकीकत की धरती पर लाए

Dinanath's entry was also very interesting...

हर बस्ती मैं उजाला हो

हर हाथ मैं निवाला हो

हस्ते बच्चे बसते हो

निखरे निखरे रस्ते हो

बनायेंगे हम इस धरती को स्वर्ग से भी महान

वादा करते हैं हम की छु लेंगे आसमान

Anil Vaidya could not be present for the celebration and hence his entry was read...

हर आँख में खुशी के आँसू

हाथों में हाथ बांधे

चले हैं हम सब एक साथ

बने हे हर होठ पर हे मुस्कान

यही हे भारत देश की शान

करे हम भारतमाता के गुन गान

चले हम अपना सीना तान

चलो अपनाए इश्वर का यह वरदान

All good things come to an end. Special thanks to all the office boys/staff who helped put up such a great show!!
