India will be ushering into the 73rd year of freedom and will celebrate Independence Day on August 15, 2019. It was on August 15, 1947, when India gained freedom from the British Rule and decided to be an independent democracy. As India steps into its 73rd Independence Day on August 15, the preparations for the celebration are in full swing. Just like every other, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will hoist the national flag at Red Fort, followed by his speech and a march past by soldiers and armed forces.
While the President of India Ram Nath Kovind will address the country at 7 pm on August 14, 2019, the PM will host the national flag at the Red Fort on August 15. This will be followed by singing the national anthem and a 21-cannon salute to pay respect to freedom fighters.
