🇮🇳 India’s Independence Day – 15th August

India celebrates its Independence Day every year on 15th August to mark the nation’s freedom from British rule in 1947. This historic day reminds us of the sacrifices made by countless freedom fighters who dedicated their lives for our country’s liberty. Leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, Subhas Chandra Bose, Bhagat Singh, and many others inspired people to unite against colonial rule.

The main celebration takes place at the Red Fort in New Delhi, where the Prime Minister hoists the national flag and delivers an address to the nation. Across the country, schools, offices, and communities hold flag-hoisting ceremonies, cultural programs, patriotic songs, and speeches to honor the spirit of freedom.

Independence Day is not only a day of joy and pride but also a time to remember our responsibilities as citizens. It encourages us to uphold the values of unity, equality, and progress, and to contribute towards making India stronger and more prosperous.

As we see our tricolor flag flutter in the sky, it reminds us of our rich heritage, our struggles for independence, and our duty to protect the hard-earned freedom for generations to come.
