75th Independence Day of India

               Happy Independence Day 



Indian Independence Day is the nation's most beloved national day because the Indian people liberated themselves from the British without having massive armies or a national treasury. It's also incredible when you consider the length of British rule in India. During the 1700s, India's colorful fabrics and aromatic spices lured British traders to the Indian subcontinent. After 100 years, the British East India Company had a firm grip on all aspects of India's economy in a monopoly sanctioned by — and benefits — the British government. On the eve of 15th August 1947, India's tricolor (saffron, green and white) flag was first hoisted by Jawahar Lal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India, at the Red Fort of Delhi. As the Urdu patriotic song goes, “Better than the entire world, is our Hindustan (India). We are its nightingales, and it (is) our garden abode.” India celebrates its Independence Day on August 15.

The day starts with a 21-gun salute

On Indian Independence Day, the prime minister hoists the Indian flag from Red Fort, Delhi, while someone sings the National Anthem, and soldiers fire off a 21-gun salute to commemorate the event.

The date changed

The actual date of India's independence is July 18, 1947, but Britain's Lord Mountbatten changed the date to coincide with the second anniversary of Japan's surrender to the Allied Forces on August 15.

Flag symbolizes progress

India's original flag was made up of the two symbolic colors of red and green, but Gandhi suggested adding a white stripe in the middle with a spinning wheel to represent India's national progress.

There's a mandatory no-fly zone

Safety measures call for a ban on air traffic over Delhi's historic Red Fort.

Our freedom fighters endured countless sufferings to give Indians their freedom. It is a day to remember and honor them.
