India is my country

All Indians are my brothers and sisters.

I love my country and I am proud of its rich and varied heritage.

I shall always strive to be worthy of it.

I shall pay respect to my parents, teachers and all elders

and treat everyone with courtesy.

I shall be kind to all life forms.

To my country and my people, I pledge my devotion.

In their wellbeing and prosperity alone lies my happiness.
