1. Which Indian state will replace "Good Morning" with "Jai Hind" in its schools starting August 15?
Starting August 15, schools in Haryana will greet students with "Jai Hind" instead of "Good Morning" to promote patriotism and national pride. This change, directed by the Haryana Directorate of School Education, aims to reinforce a sense of unity and national identity among students, especially as they participate in Independence Day celebrations. "Jai Hind," a phrase popularized by Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, is emblematic of India's sovereignty and historical struggle for freedom, and its use in schools is intended to strengthen these values among young learners.
