Highlights Of The 73rd Independence
Day!
The joy in being a free country is
empowering
On 15th August 1947, India got its wings and got
the freedom to fly. Today on the 73rd Independence
day we should consider being blessed and lucky for
being able to fight for our rights and get away from
the dominance of the British empire.
Every year it is a day to feel proud and happy
about. Most importantly, it is the brave soldiers
and freedom fighters who sacrificed their lives for
the future of our country. It is declared a National
Holiday on 15th August.
The significance of the celebration is hoisting the
Indian Flag, singing the National Anthem and a
parade. Every school, hospital, and offices follow
this tradition.
What didn’t turn out good is that India and Pakistan
got separated. However, everything cannot be
perfect and we all must celebrate this day thanking
souls who took part in the freedom movement and
got us where we are today.
