·         There are so many national days celebrated in India like 26^th January, which is the Republic day, 15^th August – which is the Independence day, 2^nd October – birthday of the father of the nation, Mahatma Gandhi and so on

·         Here I would like to talk about our Independence day i.e. 15^th August

·         We celebrate this day because we got freedom from the British rule on this day

·         On this day we remember all our freedom fighters who sacrificed their lives for our freedom

·         We also have a public holiday on this day

·         In some schools cultural programs are organised

·         On this day our prime minister hoists the national flag and addresses the nation from the Red fort at Delhi

·         People from different states show their cultural programmes in a big parade.

·         All this is telecast live on TV

·         The best display gets the prize and recognition

·         Our three forces – the Army, the Navy and the Air Force also show their feats
