India PM Modi urges country to shed its colonial past

Description

Just hours before news of Queen Elizabeth II's death spread, Prime Minister Narendra Modi delivered a fiery speech urging India to shed its colonial ties in a ceremony to rename a boulevard that once honoured King George V. The renovated avenue now boasts a black granite statue of Indian freedom fighter Subhas Chandra Bose, in the place where a mould of King George V, Elizabeth's grandfather, once stood.
