In India, Independence Day is observed on August 15, every year. The day is a national holiday in the country and is held in order to celebrate the nation's independence from British rule on August 15, 1947. On August 15, 1947, Jawaharlal Nehru, who is the first Prime Minister of India, raised the Indian National Flag above the Lahori Gate of the Red Fort in Delhi.

On each subsequent Independence Day, the then present Prime Minister customarily raises the flag and gives an address to the nation. The entire event is broadcasted by Doordarshan, India's national broadcaster, and usually begins with the shehnai music of Ustad Bismillah Khan.

Independence Day is often observed throughout India with flag-hoisting ceremonies, parades, and many cultural events, as it is a national holiday. Here are some of the Independence Day 2020 wishes and greetings to send to your loved ones to commemorate the day.
