Proud to be an Indian



Today I got a mail to Join and celebrate our 65th Independence Day in Boston, USA. I felt overwhelmed to receive the mail and instantly I forwarded it to rest of my Indian friends.  No wonder how far we are from our motherland, the love for our country will remain in heart.

Flag hoisting, Cultural programs and sweet distributions are the main event of the celebration in Boston.  New York has an Indian Independence day parade every Year.  Isn’t it amazing?? It’s the great way to teach our culture, tradition and values to small kids who are born and brought up here.

It’s a great feeling to remember the sacrifice of our freedom fighters and to see live our Prime Minister hoisting the flag at the Red Fort.  

Happy Independence Day celebrations!!!! 

Long years ago, we made a tryst with destiny and now the time comes when we shall redeem our pledge... At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India
will awake to life and freedom.”
Jawaharlal Nehru
