<<...Lata Mangeshkar, singer, 76: I want to wish Indians all over the world an independence day free of stress, strife and discord. All of us have had enough of violence and ugliness. Maybe I am being over-optimistic. But I dream of a beautiful new India where everyone will be equal and tolerant of one another. I find too much intolerance all around me. I also want better relations with our neighbours. And yes, I want our cricket team to uphold that spirit of victory which this country symbolizes in the rest of the world...>>
