'Swaraj': A Unique Saga of Unsung Heroes

of Freedom Movement

In his recent 'Mann ki Baat', the Prime Minister urged the listeners to
watch the series Swaraj, which is being telecast on Doordarshan. Our
Doordarshan team spoke to some viewers in this regard.

"With my whole family, I watch the program Swaraj which is aired
on Doordarshan, which gives us information about the heroes of Indian
Independence, especially the unsung heroes. This is a unique serial as it
narrates so many stories that we weren’t aware about, of heroes that we
didn’t know of."
Jitendra Kumar
"I heard PM Modi's appeal in his 'Mann ki Baat' program that we
should watch Swaraj airing on Doordarshan. I started watching the serial
with my family and I want to tell everyone to watch it with their families.
In this, we will get information about our glorious history in which we
fought so much for our freedom, sacrifices made by our ancestors. It
gives important information that our future generations will feel proud
to know."
Shilpa Rastogi
"Swaraj serial should be included in school syllabus as a lot of stories
that we see in the serial were never heard of. It is necessary that we know
about our history and unsung heroes also."
Prerna Pal
"The new Swaraj serial being telecast on Doordarshan shows unsung
revolutionaries and events involved in India’s freedom struggle that were
only limited to regional audiences earlier. Through this, people across the
world will be able to know about them, especially youth who should know
about the brave heroes."
