Article on Independence day
Independence Day is celebrated as an annual national festival, to mark the anniversary of national independence of India from the British Empire on 15 of August in the year 1947. It was the most luckiest day for the people of India when India became independent after lots of hardships and sacrifices of the brave Indian freedom fighters. We have won this freedom after a very hard struggle. From that day, 15th of August has become a very important day in the Indian history and is celebrated throughout the country with the full spirit of patriotism.
When India got its independence on 15th August 1947, Pundit Jawaharlal Nehru was chosen as the first Prime Minister of India and our tricolour National Flag was unfurled by him at the Red Fort in the national capital, New Delhi for the very first time. Form that day onwards, this day is celebrated every year at Red Fort, New Delhi. Many tasks are performed on this day which includes a march past by the Indian army and cultural programs by the school students.
Prime Minister of our country hoists the national flag and after hoisting and reciting the National Anthem (Jana Gana Mana), the Prime minister of India gives his annual speech. On this day, we also remember and commemorate all the great personalities and freedom fighters who had played a very important role and sacrificed their lives for bringing independence to India.
On this day of celebration, the National Flags are also hoisted in many school and colleges. Many types of activities, dance, plays etc. are also performed by the teachers and the students to make children realise the importance of this day.
