(At Delhi. Lata Mangeshkar can be seen singing a song. Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Lal Bahadur Shastri, and Indira Gandhi can be seen sitting beside her)
 
Narrator: At a function in Delhi.
Lata Mangeshkar (singing a song): "Oh my countrymen! Let your eyes fill with tears, as you recall the sacrifices of India’s martyrs."
Explanation:
 
The lesson "Glimpses of the Past" is written by S.D.Sawant. The first scene depicts a function that was held in Delhi. In the function, Lata Mangeshkar was singing a Hindi song, "Ae mere watan ke logon". The song's central theme speaks about the life of martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the welfare of the nation. Martyrs are people who face challenges and undergo great sufferings in order to save the lives of others or the country from evil forces. Lata Mangeshkar sang the song in remembrance of people who lost their lives in the First War of Indian Independence. The famous personalities sitting by her side were Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Lal Bahadur Shastri, and Indira Gandhi.

While listening to the heart-melting song, Nehru's eyes filled with tears. Likewise, the audience was listening to her song with tears in their eyes. Some of the great leaders who gave their lives for our nation were Bhagat Singh, Mahatma Gandhi, and Subash Chandra Bose. The freedom fighters are the reason we are living in an independent India. Their blood and sacrifices saved our country from the crooked Britishers. From her song, it was clear how many struggles our martyrs faced in bringing up our India as an independent one.
