Answers
India is a democratic country. We all celebrate Independence Day on August 15th every year but there is a history behind how India became Independent. After Britishers ruled for 200 long years, some of the great people launched the freedom fight against the British rule and under the leadership of Great Mahatma Gandhi. Eventually, India became a free nation on 15th August 1947. At the midnight when the entire world was sleeping, India rose as a free nation promising peace, equality, prosperity and liberty. On the first Independence Day, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of free India celebrated this occasion by hoisting the Tricolour National Flag at the Red Fort which later became the tradition.
The zeal and enthusiasm of people towards the celebration of Independence Day is increasing year after year. Even the print and online media, including TV Channels and Radio Broadcast get charged with patriotism. Inspirational Films and programmes based on patriotic concepts are telecasted to educate people and children about the various incidents and stories of our freedom struggle in order to inspire people’s love for our motherland. Newspapers also print special editions including inspirational stories of our freedom fighters or excerpts written or quoted by great philosophers.
Independence Day, therefore, is an important day for every Indian. It reminds us of the great sacrifices made by our freedom fighters to liberate our motherland. It also reminds us that our ancestors have performed their share of duties with great motivation and dedication and now it’s our turn to give even a better shape to our country so that India remains equally respectable worldwide as it ever is. We are the future of India and the nation now looks up to us for remaining as prosperous and peaceful as it used to be earlier.
