Утро Индии Morning in India – 1956 film by Roman Karmen

Even greater than landing on the moon was throwing off the English yoke – reel two of this amazing film by Roman Karmen (4 parts from https://www.net-film.ru/) has footage of Gandhi, Nehru, and – as should be appreciated by the much maligned social realism of the time, the camera’s loving embrace of building, agriculture, locomotive production, ambassador cars coming off the assembly line, plus, he seems to have travelled the length and breadth of the land – no small feat. No translation I’m afraid, but a few clicks will have youtube’s approx-translate guess it for you.
