India is gearing up to celebrate its Independence Day August 15, 2023 marking a significant milestone in its history. This day serves as a powerful reminder of the nation's liberation from British colonial rule after nearly two centuries. Every year on August 15, people across India celebrate Independence Day to commemorate the country’s independence from British colonial rule. As 2023 Independence Day draws closer, this year will marked as the 77th Independence Day celebration. 
No doubt it was not easy for India to get freedom from British rule. But our political leaders, freedom fighters, and people together participated in the freedom struggle and were determined to gain independence.
Every year, on this day, India's prime minister unfurls the national flag 'tiranga' or 'tricolour' on the Red Fort. This year as well, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will hoist the tricolour and address the nation from the Red Fort.
An Andhra youth, in 1921, showed a new design of a flag to Mahatama Gandhi during the All-India Congress Committee session. It had two colors - Red and Green. The red color represented Hindus while the green was for Muslims. Gandhi then suggested him to add another strip of white color in order to represent all the remaining Indian communities. The idea of adding a spinning wheel to the design was also given by Gandhi as a symbol of the nation's progress.
 Then, in 1931, the resolution of adopting a tricolor flag as India's national flag was passed. It had three strips of saffron, white, and green (top to bottom) along with a spinning wheel in the center. While people were fine with the strips, they objected to the inclusion of a spinning wheel reasoning that it had no communal significance.
 At last, the Constituent Assembly adopted free India National Flag on 22 July 1947. The color strips and significance of the Indian national flag remained the same after Independence. However, Emperor Ashoka's Dharma Chakra replaced the spinning wheel as the flag's emblem.
