• The first independence day was also celebrated, but it was not possible to count it as year. • The 76th Independence Day is being celebrated and celebrations are being held to mark 75 years of independence. • IF we count the years, then we have to say, since we got independence, we have crossed 75 years. There is no end to complications with calculations.Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav, the 75th Independence Day of India, is being celebrated across the country.The central government has announced Har Ghar Tiranga ceremony on this occasion.But there is a lot of debate going on at the intersection of the neighborhood, in the tea shop, about how much Independence Day this year is, 75 or 76.This year marks 75 years of India's independence from British rule.So can it be called the 75th Independence Day or is it the 76th Independence Day? India gained independence on 15th August 1947.Accordingly, multiplying the gap of 10 years, 10 years of independence passed in 1957, followed by 20 years in 1967.70 years passed in 2017.As can be seen, a total of 76 Independence Day have been celebrated in India.As such, this is the 76th Independence Day being celebrated across the country.That is why puzzles are created in people's minds.But it needs to be clearly understood, we are celebrating 76th Independence Day this year, besides, celebrating completion of 75 years of independence.Because, the first independence day was also celebrated, but it was not possible to count it as year, because indep...

Preparations are underway to celebrate India's 75 years of independence on August 15; however, there is a math-related confusion ahead of the celebration. Exactly, which Independence Day is it? India will mark 75 years of independence from British rule this year, which has added to the confusion. Which year's Independence Day is it, the 75th or the 76th? On March 12, 2021, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the 'Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav,' a Government of India initiative to celebrate and commemorate 75 years of independence. It began a 75-week countdown to our 75th anniversary of independence. This means that India will celebrate its 76th Independence Day on August 15, 2022, and mark the end of its 75 years of freedom. Still confused, here's the Maths; on August 15, 1947, India achieved its hard-fought independence from over 200 years of British rule. This means that India celebrated its first year of independence on August 15, 1948, ten years on August 15, 1957, 20 years in 1967, and 70 years in 2017. Accordingly, India celebrates 75 years of independence from British rule in 2022. However, counting the number of Independence Days celebrated in India, it will be 76 since August 15, 1947, which will be considered the first. Know some interesting facts here: 1) On August 7, 1906, the Indian national flag was hoisted at Parsee Bagan Square in Kolkata. Pingali Venkayya, a freedom fighter, designed the first variant of India's national flag in 1921. On July 22, 1947, the cur...

The independence of India was one of the most remarkable historical moments that could exist. After two centuries-long of British rule, Indians finally got freedom. It is undoubtedly a proud moment to live in an independent country. On August 15 th, 1947, we got freedom, and every year on the same day, we honor our nation’s freedom fighters who sacrificed their lives and struggled long years to bring this endeavor to our lives. Every year on this day, our Prime Minister hosts a parade with all the pride of India and achievements that are yet remarkable. The parade ends with hoisting the flag and singing the National Anthem. But to make it precise, are we going to celebrate the 76 th Independence Day or the 77 th Day and Year are two different things. Since, we count the 1st Independence Day from 1947, then from 1947 to 1952 it is 6 years, and from 1952 till 2023 it is 71 years, so the answer is simple: we will celebrate 77th Independence Day in 2023. But on the other hand, We are celebrating 76th Independence Year in 2023. The day that brought glory and freedom to the citizen of India is indeed auspicious. Celebrating it as a It is time to celebrate the heartily 77 th Independence Day on August 15 th, 2023. It is time to remember our freedom and enhance our day with the parade that is waited year long. One day, any religion, caste, creed, and language can’t divide the patriotism in us. It is that one day when we all come along to celebrate our freedom as Indians. Let’s bui...

India will usher in the 76th Independence Day with mega celebrations at the ramparts of the Red Fort in the national capital New Delhi. The celebrations will feature a number of new initiatives, some of which were revealed by Defence Secretary Dr Ajay Kumar on Wednesday while speaking to media persons. Let's take a look: 1) ATAGS to debut at Red Fort The indigenously developed Advanced Towed Artillery Gun System will fire alongside the one-pounder British guns during the 21-gun salute at Red Fort on August 15. The ATAGS has been customised to fire blank shells, and its sound attributes have been modified to suit a ceremonial gun. 2) NCC cadets at Red Fort Cadets of the National Cadet Corps from all districts of India will be attending the Independence Day celebrations in New Delhi. They will be seated in the geographical formation to represent the map of India. They will be dressed in their local attire, symbolising 'Ek Bharat Shresth Bharat'. 3) Mortuary workers, street vendors at Red Fort Continuing with the trend of inviting segments of the society to the independence day celebration, this year, mortuary workers, street vendors, Anganwadi workers and mudra loan scheme members have been invited to the Red Fort. 4) Online invitation The government has started an online invitation portal with the help of Bharat electronics. The idea is to send online invitations in future for all events. 5) Youth exchange programme A special youth exchange program is being organised by the...

Addressing the nation from the ramparts of the Red Fort for the ninth consecutive time, Mr. Modi offered tributes to a galaxy of freedom fighters, including Mahatma Gandhi, Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, Babasaheb Ambedkar, Veer Savarkar, Bhagat Singh, Jawaharlal Nehru among others. In India, where people are fighting poverty, we need to fight against corruption with all our might. Corruption and nepotism might come in the way of what the country should achieve in the next 25 years, Mr. Modi said. In line with the “Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav” celebrations, Prime Minister Narendra Modi chose to wear a white safa with tricolour stripes and a long trail for his 76th Independence Day look. The August 15 ceremony is particularly significant this year as it marks the 75th anniversary of India’s independence, with the government launching a host of exercises to add to the verve around the celebration.
