Indian Independence Day is a special day for every Indian citizen. This day reminds us about the great freedom fighters. Their supreme sacrifice has given us freedom or independence. We just can not forget them. Their life is worth inspiration for all of us.
The Indian independence movement began during World War I and was led by Mohan Das K Gandhi. He advocated for a peaceful and nonviolent end to the British rule.
Independence Day is observed throughout India with flag- hoisting ceremonies, drills/ parade, singing of the Indian national anthem, giving/ voicing patriotic slogans. In addition to this, there are various cultural programs conducted in the State capitals.
On this auspicious day, the Prime Minister of India hoists the National Flag at the Red Fort ( historic monument in old Delhi ) and gives his speech/ message for the Nation. Then parade is held with members of the armed forces and police. During this period Government Offices in New Delhi are decorated with light or buildings remain lit during this period.

Short Poem Sacrifice Of The People Of Our Nation
Our beloved country India !
Culturally rich with proud history
It’s the largest democracy of the world
It’s interesting, our freedom struggle was through non- violence
We forced the Britishers to leave our land
Fighting through non- violence in a new style
It has created a new history
But, non- violence is not a mystery.
The path of non- violence was shown by Mahatma Gandhi
The Father of our Nation
This was followed by the entire population
Fighting for freedom was the new spirit
Nobody was afraid to sacrifice their life
We achieved Independence on 15th August,1947
It was the result of great leadership
Great unity, great strength of all
And big sacrifice of the people of our nation.
Short Poem Powerful But Kind Nation
O, my dear! Brothers and Sisters!
Certainly we can be proud of many things
Many achievements in various fields
Still, please always think
How the poorest of poor is living?
Let everybody be a part of Independence celebrations
On this auspicious occasion
Let us all revisit our struggle history
Let us all take oath again
To build a powerful but kind nation
To build a progressive and tolerant nation.
CONCLUSION:-
Looking into the system of our country, and as per the provisions led down by our constitution, each and every individual of the country is the future of our country.
India has great culture and tradition. It is the largest
democracy of the world. But we all have to work hard for the development of our nation. We all have to uphold the true meaning and spirit of our great constitution.
Our country is unique with many ethnic groups, castes, culture, different religions and traditions. We all have to see that our country remains free and secular. We all have to stay united despite many differences.
