Independence Day is a special moment in the history of a nation.
And when the nation has emerged from centuries of foreign domination through a peaceful satyagraha mounted by the people, as India did, the day of freedom remains a red letter day forever.
It is a day when everyone is a proud Indian, and wear their patriotism on their heart.
It is also when Indians all over mark the day with flag-hoisting, when patriotic songs burst forth from every street corner, and school children can be seens dressed as national leaders.
It is a day to cherish, to treasure.
So how did you mark the most important day in India's calendar?
