Jai Bharath 

It  was  the   fifteen th  of  August . On  this day several  years ago ,  the  British  Government  finally  ended  their  rule  over  India  and  our  country  became  free . Therefore  we  celebrate  this day  every  year  as  the  National  Festival   Day  with  joy  and  merry- making   all  over  the  country .

In  the morning of this great day there is the flag-hoisting ceremony by  the head of each state  all over the country and singing our national anthem , Jana  Gana Mana  . The national flag 

is hoisted  at railway stations ,colleges , schools , post offices  ,other public buildings and event at some business houses. parades and  processions are held, and they make an exciting  sight for people,  especially for the children . 

In the evening there are parties and entertainment in many homes. There are beautiful illuminations on many public building . crowds of people including go eagerly to see light .

Not  only  children  ,even  adults are happy on this day .After all we are celebrating the day when we became free.

for over two hundred years, British ruled over us.Our countrymen and women ,led by our great leaders like Mahatma Gandhi , fought for this freedom and many of them suffered a lot. They were sent to jail;some were even killed. But they struggled and died so that we could be free.

Jai Hindh.
