National Days

Independence Day:
 
The Independence Day of India, which is celebrated religiously throughout the Country on the 15th of August every year, holds tremendous ground in the list of national days, since it reminds every Indian about the dawn of a new beginning, the beginning of an era of deliverance from the clutches of British colonialism of more than 200 years. It was on the fateful morning of 15th August 1947 that India was declared independent from British colonialism, and the reins of control were handed over to the leaders of the Country.
 
Republic Day:
 
India became a Republic when the Constitution of the Country came into force on 26th January 1950, thereby defining it as a Sovereign Socialist Democratic Republic with a Parliamentary form of Government, through the Preamble.
 
Gandhi Jayanti:
 
The 2nd of October is dedicated to the Father of the Nation, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi when the whole Nation celebrates Bapu's birthday.
