15th August, 1947, the day is etched in the minds and hearts of all Indians. India gained freedom after years of struggle against the British Rule. Independence Day of any country is a moment of pride and glory. On this special occasion, rich tributes are paid to the freedom fighters like Gandhi, Nehru, Tilak, Bhagat Singh, Sarojini Naidu amongst others, who fought selflessly for the freedom of our country, sacrificed their lives to free their motherland from the clutches of the oppressors - British who ruled India.

 
On the eve of 15th August, 1947, Jawaharlal Nehru addressed the constituent assembly at the Parliament, delivering his famed, eloquent speech, Tryst with Destiny announcing India’s freedom at midnight. This announcement brought about a rise in spirits all over the country, for India was finally realizing a dream to be a free nation, free from oppression and domination under the British rule. It was a historic day as India finally shook off the shackles of British Rule and became free. It was a night of celebration all over the country.

However, sometimes to gain something you may have to lose something integral. Due to the growing disparities between the Hindu and Muslim communities, the demand for a new nation for Muslims grew louder. Punjab and Sindh were divided in the north-west region of India to form a new nation. Pakistan was formed on the 14th of August, and celebrates Independence Day on that day.
