Today August 15, India commemorates its 75th year of Independence. Indeed a proud day for every Indian living in the country and across the globe. Every year, this day is celebrated across the nation with much ardour and pride, with people coming together to remember the sacrifices of our freedom fighters and leaders who dedicated their lives to free our nation. It was on this day that India was freed from the British Empire in 1947. India has come a long way over the past 75 years in transforming itself as a nation and improving the quality of lives. In these 75 years India as a nation has shown stellar growth. Today, the country is an economic powerhouse with significant progress made from agriculture to space technology, from manufacturing to services industries, from world class educational institutions to improving access and affordability of healthcare for all with increased focus on maternal and child health and consequently lifting millions from extreme poverty. The country has been able to emerge as the world’s third-largest economy. India’s economic rise as a secular, plural democracy holds great value for the entire world.
