India gained it's Independence or rather declared as Independent on Aug 15, 1947. That was a event that took place on that day in that year, it doesn't take place every year. We don't have to win our Independence every year, we are independent since August 15, 1947. But why does our patriotism only come out on that day? We wave flags, we sing our national anthem, we say " meta Bharath mahaan" only on that day and the very next day revert back to ou...
