The Indian statesman who used the magic words "Long years ago, we made a tryst with destiny, and now the time comes when we shall redeem our pledge" is Jawaharlal Nehru. These words are from his famous speech delivered on the midnight of August 14-15, 1947, on the eve of India`s independence from British rule. In this speech, Nehru reflected on the history and struggle of the Indian freedom movement and expressed his vision for the future of the nation. He emphasized the need for unity, progress, and social justice in the newly independent India. Nehru went on to become the first Prime Minister of India and played a crucial role in shaping the country`s policies and institutions.
