PM Modi to deliver 10th consecutive Independence Day address

 Delhi, Aug 14 (PTI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi will deliver on Tuesday his 10th consecutive Independence Day address - also his last before 2024 Lok Sabha polls - with a mood of anticipation around the annual showpiece event that he has used to present his government's report card and unveil flagship schemes.

There is a view that the prime minister may choose to chart the country's journey on his watch in various sectors since 2014 and outline his vision for the years ahead, something he has done in previous addresses as well.

Experts will also be looking for political messages in the address. Modi has mostly refrained from launching any direct political attack on opposition parties in his Independence Day addresses but has often stressed on the governance changes his dispensation has ushered in after a spell of "corruption" and policy paralysis.
