Not all Republic Day heroes wear uniforms. 🇮🇳
Some drive auto-rickshaws.
On a quiet January morning,
one humble auto driver did something so unexpected
that it brought tears to strangers’ eyes.
This is the true-inspired story
of a man who turned his auto into a gift for his country.
The sun had just risen on Republic Day morning.
Tricolor flags fluttered on balconies.
Patriotic songs played softly from nearby shops.
At a busy street corner,
an old auto-rickshaw stood quietly.
Inside sat Ramesh, a 52-year-old auto driver.
A small Indian flag was tied to the front of his auto.
A young office worker stopped his auto and asked,
“Bhaiya, railway station chaloge?”
Ramesh nodded.
When they reached the station,
the man took out his wallet.
Ramesh gently pushed his hand away.
“Paise nahi chahiye, beta,” he said.
“Aaj desh ka din hai.
Aaj sab sawari free hai.” 🇮🇳
The man stared in disbelief.
Next came an old woman going to a temple.
Then a schoolboy carrying a small flag.
Then a nurse heading to duty.
Ramesh refused money from all of them.
“Today I earn nothing,” he smiled.
“Today I give thanks.”
By noon,
people started taking photos.
Someone uploaded a video of Ramesh online.
By evening,
it had gone viral across India.
When a reporter asked him why he did it,
Ramesh replied softly:
“I am a poor man.
I cannot build monuments.
I cannot give speeches.
But I can give one day’s income
to the country that gave me my life.” 🇮🇳
🌟 MORAL
True patriotism is not shown by big words or big acts…
but by small sacrifices made with a grateful heart. 🇮🇳
