A long, long time ago, India wasn't free to make its own rules. But brave people worked together, mostly by being peaceful and kind, to help India become its own country. On August 15th, 1947, India officially became independent! It was like the whole country got to blow out candles on a giant birthday cake!

On Independence Day, the most exciting thing is seeing the Indian flag fly high! The Prime Minister, who is like the leader of the country, raises the flag at a famous old fort called the Red Fort.
