Independence day Of INDIA
the old to the new…India discovers herself again." - J.L.Nehru
On the eve of India's independence, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru famous
speech "Tryst with Destiny" marked the beginning of a free India with
words symbolizing hope and triumph.
India got its independence from the clutches of British rule on 15th
August 1947. It was this day when India's tricolor flag was unfolded by
Pandit Nehru on the barricades of the Red Fort at Delhi. Each and every
patriotic soul watched with excitement and paid tribute to thousands of
martyrs who sacrificed their lives for India's freedom.
The Independence Day of India is a moment of delight and grandeur but to
achieve it the nation had to put up a long battle for over two centuries
against the British Empire. At last on 3rd June 1947, the last British
Viceroy of India, Lord Mountbatten of Burma, declared the separation of
the British Empire in India into India and Pakistan. The announcement
was made under the terms of the Indian Independence Act 1947.
