India will celebrate its 77th Independence from British rule on August 15, 2023. The day is observed as a national holiday and is celebrated across the nation by hoisting the national flag. The Prime Minister of India also hoists the national flag at the Red Fort in Delhi and the event also consists of several cultural programmes. India achieved Independence from the British after a long and hard struggle by our freedom fighters and for years their words have inspired us.
