PM Modi is all set to deliver his 12th consecutive Independence Day speech on Friday, a milestone that comes months after India launched Operation Sindoor. After recently going past Indira Gandhi’s record of tenure for a consecutive period as prime minister, PM Modi, with his 12th Independence Day address, will edge ahead of her 11 consecutive speeches from the ramparts of Red Fort to stand only next to Jawaharlal Nehru in terms of number of the Red Fort addresses in a row.
