Independence Day

By Rahul Das
John Martyn Memorial School
Our country got freedom on 15 August 1947 from Britishers. Our freedom fighers were Mahatma Gandhi, Bhagat Singh, Jawahar lal Nehru, Chandra Shekhar Azad, Lal Bahadur Shastri, Lala Lajpat Rai etc. they gave their lives to set free India. That is why we are celebrating Independence Day on 15 August every year. In our school Independence Day is celebrated very happily. Firstly we say the prayers. Then we do some programs on Independence Day. Then we hoist the National flag. After that we sing our national anthem. I am proud to be an Indian because India is a developing country. I love my country very much. Jai Hind.
