Independence Day 2019: When and where to watch PM Modi's address

Previously, PM Modi had used the annual event to announce several government programmes like 'Swachh Bharat', 'Ayushman Bharat', India's first manned space mission, and also to present a report card on its performance to highlight how the country has grown on his watch. Modi often invokes India's rich cultural heritage to rally support from citizens for government schemes — from cleanliness to ending female foeticide, and this time, water conservation — an issue Modi has prioritised for his second term. Some of his party leaders have noted that the prime minister's speech often has a surprise element and this speech may not be different. This will be Modi's sixth straight Independence Day speech, a number equal to late Atal Bihari Vajpayee, who gave six straight speeches between the years 1998-2003. In 2014, he gave a call for 'Swachh Bharat' and appealed for shunning communalism and casteism to focus on development. He made a strong pro-poor and pro-farmer and pro-youth pitch the next year. In 2016, he created waves by mentioning Balochistan, a Pakistani region where Baloch nationalists have been fighting the government forces. He gave a call for embracing people of Kashmir in 2017.
