India is gearing up to celebrate its 77th Independence Day on August 15 (Tuesday). In 2023, India will be celebrating its 76 years of Independence on August 15 and will be onto its 77th year of Independence.

Independence Day is celebrated with pomp across the nation and Indians around the globe. This year's Independence Day will culminate the "Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav" celebrations, which were launched by the Prime Minister from Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad, Gujarat on March 12, 2021, and will, once again, usher the country into "Amrit Kaal" with renewed vigour to realise PM Narendra Modi's dream of making India a developed country by 2047.
