British colonial rule in India ended on August 15, 1947. This year, India commemorates 77 years of independence since the historic event
From a different perspective, August 15, 2024, will be the 78th observance of Independence Day if counted from 1947
The theme for the 78th Independence Day celebrations is 'Viksit Bharat', which aligns with the government's goal to transform India into a developed nation by 2047
There is some confusion about whether this year's celebration is the 77th or 78th. The key distinction is whether one counts from 1947 or the first anniversary in 1948
The Red Fort in Delhi becomes central to the celebrations. It's historically significant as site where Jawaharlal Nehru delivered his "Tryst with Destiny" speech
Known as Lal Quila, the Red Fort represents India's fight for freedom and power. Its history includes witnessing many key moments in India's journey toward independence
In summary, while 2024 marks 77 years of freedom since 1947, it is the 78th Independence Day observance
