15th August 1947 is the day of great significance in the history of India. On this auspicious day, India achieved its freedom from the British rule and became a free and democratic country. It’s a historical day as several freedom fighters sacrificed their lives to liberate the nation. The respect for the Independence Day is still strong in the hearts of every Indian, which can be easily evinced from the grand celebrations that happen nationwide.
It’s a spectacular scene and different states celebrate the occasion in a different way, but the view of the capital city is fabulous. Pipe railings are fixed on the sides of the road leading to the Red Fort and hundreds of loudspeakers get fixed around the fort so that even distant people can hear the speech of the Prime Minister without any difficulty. In order to regulate the traffic, police deputations are posted in large numbers who also ensure the security of the V.I.Ps, diplomatic envoys, foreign dignitaries, Ministers and Members of Parliament, etc.
Media also plays an important role and ensures that no single event gets missed by the common citizen and hence, Doordarshan, other TV channels, and All-India Radio makes special arrangements for a live telecast along with the running commentary.
